In recent weeks, Sen. John McCain's (R-AZ) rallies have become increasingly hostile and divisive. Supporters have called Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) a "traitor," yelled "off with his head," and accused him of being a "terrorist." After Obama criticized the McCain campaign for "riling up a crowd by stoking anger and division," McCain adviser Nicolle Wallace attacked Obama for "insulting" their supporters.
