Negativity Still a Central Part of McCain's Campaign

The NYT is reporting that "voters in at least 10 swing states are receiving hundreds of thousands of automated telephone calls — uniformly negative and sometimes misleading — that the Republican Party and the McCain campaign are financing." One of the calls brings up Ayers and another claims Obama puts Hollywood above America. McCain has denounced these types of calls in the past. There has even been bipartisan criticism for the calls. According to The Huffington Post, "Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, a Nevada Democrat, and Sen. Susan Collins, a Maine Republican, made separate appeals to McCain on Friday."
