via The Daily Dish | By Andrew Sullivan (October 10, 2008) – The Dangerous Panic On The Far Right:
This is a moment of maximal physical danger for the young Democratic nominee. And McCain is playing with fire. If he really wants to put country first, he will attack Obama on his policies – not on these inflammatory, personal, creepy grounds. This is getting close to the atmosphere stoked by the Israeli far right before the assassination of Rabin.
For God’s sake, McCain, stop it. For once in this campaign, put your country first.
(Andrew Sullivan has been described as a classical libertarian conservative, by the way.)
