Ed Henry on John McCain
"The Situation Room" 10/09/08
Commentary
TRANSCRIPT:
AUDIENCE MEMBER: Im mad. Im really mad.
And whats gonna surprise ya is its not the
economy. Its the socialist taking over our
country.
ED HENRY: At a dramatic town hall in
Wisconsin, John McCain was confronted by
Republican voters wondering how he can be
losing to Barack Obama. And urging McCain to
get tougher with his opponent.
AUDIENCE MEMBER: And were all wondering, why
that Obama is where hes at. How he got here.
I mean everybody in this room is stunned
that were in this position.
HENRY: The questioner angrily suggested that
the media is giving Obama a pass on questions
about his ties to former-terrorist, Bill
Ayers, sparking wild applause from the
raucous crowd.
JOHN MCCAIN: The point, Senator Obama said he
was just a guy in the neighborhood. We know
thats not true. We need to know the full
extent of the relationship because of whether
Senator Obama is telling the truth to the
American people or not.

SARAH PALIN: I am like you, and I wonder too
when will the questions be asked, and when
will we get the answers?
HENRY: But another voter pointedly urged
McCain to stand up to Obama.
AUDIENCE MEMBER: It is absolutely vital that
you take it to Obama, that you hit him where
it hits, as a softball. We have the Reverend
Wright, we have Flager, we have all of these
shady characters that have surrounded him. I
am begging you, sir. I am begging you. Take
it to him. [John McCain hugs commenter]
