McCain Sets The Goalpost Higher on Rhetoric

John McCain reputiated a popular conservative radio host yesterday claiming his campaign will not engage in the inuendo and name calling:

McCain Repudiates ‘Hussein Obama’ Remarks
CINCINNATI, Ohio—A conservative radio talk show host who helped introduce Senator John McCain before a rally here Tuesday used Senator Barack Obama’s middle name, Hussein, three times, while disparaging him, prompting Mr. McCain to apologize and repudiate the comments afterward.............LINK

What Mr. Cunningham has forgotten, (just like the Coutlers, Limbaughs, Hannitys, and Ingrahms), is this election is not about them, or their egos, or their ratings. John McCain has chosen to rise above the rhetoric and innuendos and would rather attack Mr. Obama on policy and principal......sounds Presidential to me.

The fact that Cunningham spends his valuable time introducing John McCain and then later (on Hannity and Combs) threatens to endorse Hillary Clinton speaks volumes about his own credibility.

East of Eden posted a similar story about how the conservative talk show "supporters" stand by the party.

Update: Allahpundit at Hot Air has posted the video and commentary on this subject.

Update 2: Allah now has video of Cunningham's tirade at Hannity and Combs.
