A Molotov cocktail was thrown at a McCain sign.

Wow pretty hateful

That woman has serious issues. Kudos to Greg Bowen, who hastily put up signs offering candy for everyone.

Brian, at least that's a media source who's being up front about what they want.

They wanted the revenue from the ad. Editorial had no say in the decision to use the bags...it was all sales.

It's one thing to discuss politics with adults, but man you would have to be pretty hateful to pick on kids at halloween. There's a website with her name, address and phone number. I believe she will be getting a lesson in what goes around comes around.

(Just for those who think ill of me, I don't believe anyone should have put her name on the web or do anything to her, I believe it would have to be horrible enough, to go thru life being this woman.)

Oh.  That's how.  Idiots.

Seriously? 4 year-olds out for Halloween and she says if their parents support Obama they can't have candy? Now, I can understand people not participating in a holiday at all, I'm all for that.
But most of these kids, all they get from this is the woman telling them they're being punished because their parents are doing something bad, and they don't understand what that is.

Campaigning should be aimed at adults, people old enough to vote. Not kids.

The worst part? I can just imagine McCain sitting there, tearing his hair out going "Do these people actually think they're helping me when they do this?"

This woman has hopefully made herself a pariah with her neighborhood and the local republican party. What a lunkhead.

But still no comment on the dying child hoax.  I guess for you  it's only hateful if it's against your candidate?

No. It's hateful because it's against children.

While McCain was funny on SNL...I don't know, I found a presidential candidate peforming in those skits just days before the election unbecoming.  Seemed desperate to me.

Ben Affleck, by the way, was surprisingly brilliant. His Keith Olbermann was spot on. Great stuff.
