Latest McCain Robocall Hits Obama Over "Bitter" Comments, Slams "Elitist" Dems

By Greg Sargent - October 22, 2008, 4:30PM

We've just learned of yet another nasty McCain campaign robocall: This one hits Barack Obama over his "bitter" comments about guns and religion, and repeatedly denounces Dems as "elitists" who "don't understand us."

<...>

Here's the script:

I'm calling for John McCain and the RNC, because Barack Obama says Midwest folks like us cling to our guns because we're bitter. And elitist Democrats who want to control Washington have tried to completely ban handguns and most hunting rifles. The NRA said that Barack Obama would be the most anti-gun president in American history. These elitist Democrats just don't understand us, and we can't trust them with our second amendment rights. This call was paid for the the Republican National Committee and McCain/Palin 2008.

Two other readers -- Mary Ann Benavides, a psychologist in Wisconsin, and Chris Jones, the director of communications for a real estate tech company in North Carolina -- confirm to us that they received calls saying precisely the same thing today.

Audio when we get it. The Republican National Committee didn't return a call for comment.

This "bitter" robocall comes after we reported today that the McCain campaign unleashed a Rudy Giuliani robocall attacking Obama on crime. And we're getting reports of yet another McCain call hitting him on crime.

It's very clear that the McCain campaign has unleashed a new wave of robo-slime today.

Separately, HuffPo reports that GOP Senator Gordon Smith is now denouncing the calls.
