McCain Doesn't Denounce Frederick


This guy, Jeffrey Frederick, told McCain volunteers in Virginia to knock on doors and tell people that Obama is like Osama. Read about that outing here.
TP: Earlier this week, Time magazine’s Karen Tumulty reported on how Jeffrey Frederick, the chairman of the Virginia Republican party, gave GOP volunteers talking points on “the connection between Barack Obama and Osama bin Laden.” “Both have friends that bombed the Pentagon,” Frederick told 30 volunteers. “That is scary.”

Though McCain campaign spokesperson Gail Gitchoo told the Washington Post that “the McCain campaign disagrees with the comparison that Jeff Frederick made,” McCain himself refused to denounce Frederick’s comments.
