The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

(Obama supporters) this morning are fuming over the inability of Republican presidential candidate John McCain to mention his Democratic opponent by name during their second debate.

The reference point is this Associated Press article:

During a discussion of an energy bill McCain offered up a two-word phrase that drew a quick reaction from the Obama campaign.

“You know who voted for it?” McCain asked. “You might never know.

“That one,” McCain said, pointing at his opponent.

Obama campaign manager David Plouffe said after the debate, “John McCain was all over the map on the issues, and he is so angry about the state of his campaign that he referred to Barack Obama as ‘that one’ — last time he couldn’t look at Senator Obama; this time he couldn’t say his name.”

6. Yeah, I know. I didn't think you were the one who used the term.
I'm just kind of surprised that the reporter did.
