Don't tell me McCain isn't responsible for rally warmups - Non-Christians for Obama?

CNN reports in "Speaker at McCain rally says non-Christians want an Obama win"
A minister delivering the invocation at John McCain’s rally in Davenport, Iowa Saturday told the crowd non-Christian religions around the world were praying for Barack Obama to win the U.S. presidential election.

“There are millions of people around this world praying to their god—whether it’s Hindu, Buddha, Allah—that his opponent wins, for a variety of reasons. And Lord, I pray that you will guard your own reputation, because they’re going to think that their God is bigger than you, if that happens,” said Arnold Conrad, the former pastor of Grace Evangelical Free Church in Davenport.

Don't tell me that this statement was supposed to help:
“While we understand the important role that faith plays in informing the votes of Iowans, questions about the religious background of the candidates only serve to distract from the real questions in this race about Barack Obama's judgment, policies and readiness to lead as commander in chief,” said McCain campaign spokesperson Wendy Riemann.

Update: If you can stand it, here's some of what McCain-Palin supporters are saying and doing: McCain supporters in Bethlehem PA and Johnstown PA.

Those videos are horrific.

Man.

I've seen so much today--ever read that Philip Roth novel, The Plot Against America?

Give me liberty.
