McCain vows to whip Obama's 'you know what'

ARLINGTON, Va. - 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."

[Posteritatis]

26. Just wait, thirty years from now candidates'll be vowing to pwnx0r one another (nt)

[Robb]

67. ...or lose because of sex0rz pixplzthx (nt)

[Virginia Dare]

37. His mommy might be watching..

and she'll whip his "you know what" if he talks that way...:silly:

[speedoo]

5. McCain: once a fool, always a fool.

Most any other politician would have learned by now that this kind of talk re. Obama ALWAYS BACKFIRES.

On edit, for evidence of this, see:

He may have the first, he definetly doesn't have the second, and as for the third... WAY fucking out there.

8. Don't let your mouth overload your butt

[torbird]

18. Damn right, banana!

[Karenina]

65. Or, as said by Q's "The Dude"

Don't let your mouth write a check
that your body can't cash.

[Haole Girl]

9. Does anyone else find that offensive?

:shrug:

[Orrex]

11. Lighten up

After making his gaffe, McCain offered a plate of conciliatory watermelon. "Everybody loves watermelon," said the Senator from Arizona.

[silverojo]

48. And if he screws up again....

McCain will follow that up with a platter of fried chicken. :mad:

[bunkerbuster1]

66. He meant to say "whip his black hide."

"Black" is what the Negroes want to be called now, after all.

[shadowknows69]

12. Hopefully most of civilized society

[Tangerine LaBamba]

25. I do, but macho posturing by an impotent old guy

who's having hid head handed to him by a young, strong, honorable man always leaves me in a state of revulsion.

[Diane R]

32. Of course it's offensive. And I have no doubt his words were scripted.

[GinaMaria]

72. yes. He didn't say 'kick' he said Whip. n/t

[Starbucks Anarchist]

10. One day, he'll slip up and call Obama "Kunta Kinte."

[dkf]

13. I guess this is the dogwhistle thing?

[Starbucks Anarchist]

14. Kunta Kinte?

He's one of the characters from "Roots."

[dkf]

16. no. the whip.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

20. Yes.

[Kolesar]

46. That was funny...eom

[gratuitous]

15. "We're a couple points down, OK, nationally . . ."

Yeah, I suppose 12 could be called a couple. After all, we're talking about 100 total percent, so 12 might seem like a couple. If your rheumy old eyes are squinted just right.

Anyway, does any of this friendly-crowd inspired fake bravado mean that McCain is actually going to mouth some of the nasty things he and his supporters have been saying right to Obama's face? Because Obama will freeze him to his chair with the iciness of his response.

[shadowknows69]

24. When Obama called McCain out on "bomb bomb bomb Iran" he was visibly cowed

I don't think he'll have any problem giving it right back to him. That is if the coward even has the stones to try it. It will be to the camera, not to his face, if anything.

[shanti]

52. he's a coward and a bully

supposedly, mccain backhanded a woman in public. there's a link to the youtube floating around du.

[middlegrounder]

17. He's all talk

But will he walk the walk?

[Jeremy101]

19. McCain can't even speak

"We should be able to deliver hot bottled water to dehydrated babies"

-McCain

[MissMarple]

21. We don't want your "experience", "knowledge", and most especially, not the "vision".

It's the vision thing, and yours is clouded by your own hubris and greed.

[Not Me]

22. You would think at this point...

given he knows he's toast, that he would consider a dignified way to fashion his legacy.
What a little man.

[jpertello]

23. McCain is such a "you-know-what" hole.

[MyOwnPeace]

40. He's such a "you-know-what" hole.............

Not fair - I just spewed my soda on the keyboard!!!!
Oh, and you are SO right!!!!

[kestrel91316]

27. "Whip". Oh, dear. That would be, how shall we put it, a rather

UNFORTUNATE choice of words........

I'm sure the Klan faction of the Republican Party will appreciate it.

[morillon]

28. Unfreakinbelievable.

I've thought for a long time that McCain had an absolutely tin ear, but this just blows my mind. What's respectful about threatening to whip someone's you-know-what?

[DrZeeLit]

29. Oooh.... he's bad. I'm looking forward to his meltdown. His Jack Nicholson moment....

YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE COUNTRY.
YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE PRESIDENCY.

We were hoping for the complete blow up last time, and started a whole thread with our "dream" meltdown lines....
but....

Here's the BEST post from Truth Hurts A Lot

Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with loads of money. Whose gonna do it? You? You, Obama? I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for the middle class, and you curse the top 2%. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That the collapse of the DOW, while tragic, probably saved millionaires billions of dollars. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like maverick, terrorist, country. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.


I need to give credit again: Truth Hurts A Lot

[msongs]

30. Obama should stand up at the debate and tell McCain to "whip my you know what" right on TV nt

[FVZA_Colonel]

31. So much for a "more respectful campaign."

[Berry Cool]

33. Never forget the immortal words of Tonya Harding about Nancy Kerrigan:

"I'm gonna whip her butt."

Worked real well for her... :shrug:

[CitizenPatriot]

34. he's hoping y'all hang on till wednesday...after that, it's anybody's guess

how he'll keep ya interested...but I wouldn't put it past him to have Palin do what she does best...wink wink.

DESPERADO, WHY DON'T YOU COME TO YOUR SENSES? You've been out riding fences for soooo long now.

DESPERADO.....

[Virginia Dare]

35. That sounds like something my 8 year old would say..

the guy is a 72 year old child. Hey McCain, you're a "you know what" hole, so why don't you kiss my "you know what"...:eyes:

[AzNick]

36. "Erratic" is the word...

One day he is apologetic and calls Obama a decent man, the next he is back to his old mean self.

[nightrain]

38. truly unfortunate use of words, but that apparently

passed McCain by. I LOL though that McCain could even think that he's going to out-debate Obama! You're toast McCain....

[grannylib]

39. McKlan - great name for him! That's what I'm using from now on

Thinly-veiled racist SHIT.
What filth.

[Fearless]

41. He's going to whip someone?!?

[craz3z]

42. Oh please, please!!!

Let him try - literally. I think McGollum just might be crazy enough to do it. We won't even have to buy the Pay-Per View to watch!

[anigbrowl]

43. Need video FTW

Anyone seen it anywhere? Don't know what channel it was on, if any.

[Mad_Dem_X]

44. Ahahahahahahahaha!

(Ahem.) Yeah, right, McSame. You're going to kick Obama's ass Wednesday. That's the funniest thing I've heard all day! :rofl:

[DallasNE]

45. So McCain Thinks He Will Whip "That's Who(s)" "You Know What"

Well, I have to give McCain credit. He has talking in code down pat.

Too bad that has nothing to do with the current mess we find ourselves in, thanks in large part to McCain himself and his rubber stamp vote for every Bush economic package.

[gauguin57]

47. To quote McCain's own ads: "How disrespectful!"

That is just coarse and nasty. Way to set an example for the youth of America, Senator McCain.

[fortyfeetunder]

49. Simply disgraceful and un Presidential.

Besides, McCain's legs are too short to even kick Obama's "you know what"
And I doubt he's adept in using a whip!

[truthisfreedom]

50. You "kick" someone's "ass" in a competition. "I 'mo whoop yo' ass, boy" is a racist phrase.

So which one did he mean? "Whip" was the wrong choice, Massa John.

[workinclasszero]

53. Republican John McCain vowed Sunday to "whip" Democratic rival Barack Obama's "you-know-what...

Like this McKKKain?

[Grinchie]

54. If You Haven't Seen The Manchurian Candidate...

Some thrillers remain as suspenseful -- and timely -- as when they were first released. Raymond Shaw (Laurence Harvey) is a Korean War hero with a lethal secret: He's been brainwashed into being a sleeper agent for the communist Chinese. With one phone call, the Reds can transform Shaw into a deadly assassin -- unless fellow veteran Bennett Marco (Frank Sinatra) can stop them first!

Just watched this again tonight, and it was pretty chilling.

Watching the similarities to the McCain campaign will give me nightmares.

As far as the evil counterparties go, I think Todd fits the bill in place of Angela Lansbury.

[bitchkitty]

55. Please. Bring it, Mary. n/t

[radfringe]

56. down a "couple" of points??? wtf???

what world is mccain living in? I'm surprised he didn't say "the fundamentals of my campaign are strong". The whole reason for driving his bus through mud bogs is because he's more than just a couple of points down.


all the polls are showing a 6 to 11 point spread http://www.realclearpolitics.com/polls/
RCP average is a 7.3 spread as of 10/11

58. Understandable.

He has to put a happy face on this thing. If he doesn't believe he can win, why bother trying?

62. "Whip" is an extremely illconsidered turn of phrase

but then what else would you expect from a white idiot.

[4lbs]

63. I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed that.

Hmmm...

A white man promising to "whip" a black man....

[primavera]

73. Be grateful he didn't use the word "lynch"

Given McKlan's cultural sensitivity, it wouldn't have surprised me.

[madrchsod]

64. let`s bring back the days of ass whipping ....
