Democrat Barack Obama went public thanking Republican-rival John McCain for
McCain's attempt to tone down the negativity of the U.S. presidential race.
Then, Obama's campaign released a number of bad critiques about how McCain
is out of touch on the economy.

|
McCain said, "You're welcome, Mr. Obama," and then told everyone not to
forget that Obama had a close friend who is a terrorist.
|
|
With just three weeks left before the election, polls showered leads for
Obama in every state and also indicated that if Paris, London, Brussels,
Tokyo and Hong Kong became U.S. states, Obama would be leading in
those, too.
|
|
McCain had said to a supporter at a rally that Obama is a "decent person
and a person that you do not have to be scared (of) as president of the
United States. However, I would be a better president than Obama."
|
|
But in an indication of the anger running high on both sides, the crowds
at Obama's recent rallies booed loudly at the mention of McCain and many
mocked his voice, shouting in unison, "My friends... my friends... my
friends."
