Well, actually, he says he’ll whip Obama’s “you know what” (and watch for lefties to say this is racist because slaves where whipped…even though Obama has never been a slave, and neither were any of his ancestors – Obama having, as far as can be determined, no African-American blood whatsoever):
ARLINGTON, Va. (AP) – Republican John McCain vowed Sunday to “whip” Democratic rival Barack Obama’s “you-know-what” when the two presidential candidates meet Wednesday in their final televised debate.
McCain made that pledge as top advisers said he is weighing new economic proposals to help the nation weather the financial crisis. The Arizona senator refused to answer a reporter’s question Sunday about what plans he might be considering.
Addressing several dozen volunteers at his campaign headquarters outside Washington, McCain promised some of his signature “straight talk” about the state of the race. National and many battleground state polls have shown him trailing Obama amid the deepening market crisis.
“We’re a couple points down, OK, nationally, but we’re right in this game,” McCain said to cheers. “The economy has hurt us a little bit in the last week or two, but in the last few days we’ve seen it come back up because they want experience, they want knowledge and they want vision. We’ll give that to America.”
McCain said he and running mate Sarah Palin would continue campaigning hard in the three weeks left before Election Day, in places like Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Mexico, Nevada and Colorado. The two planned a joint appearance Monday in Virginia, a Republican stronghold turned battleground this time.
“We’re going to spend a lot of time and after I whip his you-know-what in this debate, we’re going to be going out 24/7,” McCain said.
Our Democratic friends are, of course, advising us to cut it out, admit that the race is over and leave off the questions about Obama’s background, character and policy proposals…they are doing this because of that well-known Democratic concern for the well being of the GOP. And I’ve got a bridge in Brooklyn for you, if you believe that. One thing we can be certain of is that if the Democrats want us to stop doing something, we should do as much of it as we can.
As for me, its into the battle full throttle – and without even the slightest thought of or concern about the outcome. Our duty, fellow GOPers, is to battle for our side…to do the best we can, each day, to convince our fellow Americans that they should turn to us to provide the leadership our nation needs in these troubled times. If we do that, and turn the result over to God’s will, then whatever the outcome we’ll rest content in the knowledge of a job well done. So, have at it – stout hearts!
