"Hate Calls"

So the phone is ringing...You walk away from the computer...Leave your dinner unattended on the stove...Tell the kids stop playing so loudly and answer the phone...it's a recording.

“If Democrats win full control of government, they will want to give civil rights to terrorists and talk unconditionally to dictators and state sponsors of terror. Barack Obama and his Democratic allies lack the experience and judgment to lead America,” says the robotic voice on the other end of the phone.

Well, I know that campaigns can get a little dirty and spread untruths, to say the least. But, according to the Huffington Post, Sen. McCain is employing the same tactics that were used to smear him in 2000. The first round of phone messages were about Sen. Obama's supposed connection to William Ayers. But, the most recent phone calls circulating in McCain's home state are directly linking Obama and all other democrats to terrorism. That's a brash statement!

Why would he resort to using theses phone calls to gain votes? Especially when McCain called these messages once used to attack him "hate calls."
