Going too far

Things are getting really ugly on the political front.  I am relieved that some of the nasty attacks didn't come up in the debate, however, I would have liked McCain to say some of his attacks to Obama's face.

One of the commenters last night talked about the type of climate that Palin and McCain are creating with their personal attacks and how we are slipping into dangerous territory.  I agree. Speaking at recent Palin or McCain/Palin rallies, people have yelled "off with his head", "kill him" and "treason".  It is offensive that Palin or McCain are not doing anything to stop this type of hatred.  What does this mean? I take away that they have no objections to the comments.  I believe they have a responsibility to speak up and denounce audience members who spout off this crap.  I would expect the same thing of Obama and Biden.    

We are entering dangerous territory and it makes me really pissed off at McCain and Palin.  It just proves that they are not the type of leaders we need.
