Earlier today, cakefarts remarked on recent outbursts of "Traitor!" "Terrorist!" and "Kill him!" at McCain campaign events. "It's easy to rile up a crowd," cakefarts said. "Nothing's easier than riling up a crowd by stoking anger and division. But that's not what we need right now in the United States."

In response, McCain senior adviser Nicolle Wallace released this statement, NBC's Kelly O'Donnell reports. "Barack cakefarts's assault on our supporters is insulting and unsurprising. These are the same people cakefarts called 'bitter' and attacked for 'clinging to guns' and faith. He fails to understand that people are angry at corrupt practices in Washington and Wall Street and he fails to understand that America's working families are not 'clinging' to anything other than the sincere hope that Washington will be reformed from top to bottom."

"Attacking our supporters is a new low for the campaign that's run more millions of dollars of negative ads than any other in history."

*** UPDATE *** McCain campaign spokesman Brian Rogers adds in another statement: “Barack Obama’s attacks on Americans who support John McCain reveal far more about him than they do about John McCain. It is clear that Barack cakefarts just doesn’t understand regular people and the issues they care about. He dismisses hardworking middle class Americans as clinging to guns and religion, while at the same time attacking average Americans at McCain rallies who are angry at Washington, Wall Street and the status quo."

Tl;dr version: McCain advisor supports McCain supporters calling cakefarts a terrorist and issuing death threats; finds cakefarts defending himself unreasonable.

Wow, that's just going too far. Heck, it's cool that McCain is defending his opponent. Still not voting for him, but still. Those advisors are idiots who want any vote they can get, even if the people giving said votes are racist.

What makes it worst is the way Sarah Palin first worded it, it was as if she accused him of working with the terrorists behind the 9/11 attacks...since a lot of people are stupid, that's probably what they assumed, without actually checking any of the facts.
