Can't let Bobert's observation above pass...

In the interest of fair and balanced, there are now several newsreels (e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVFWahLTdUo) where you can clearly hear McCain-Palin rally attendees shouting "terrorist", "treason", and - more than once - "kill him".

If Obama is to be held accountable for the words and deeds of any of his supporters (let's say Wright or Ayers for instance), should we not expect McCain and Palin to repudiate, deny, reject (or whatever the hell the proper word was) these obscene and dangerous cries from their supporters?

I'm serious. The specter of Bobby Kennedy (I know that reference got Hillary in trouble, but there it is...) and Martin Luther King Jr. looms (God or Dog Forbid).
