That only confirms that McCain said it. You fail.

I'm not seeing that. I saw that the quote was "attributed to an anonymous McCain aid."

Yes. Which means, when Obama said:

"Senator McCain's campaign actually said, and I quote, 'If we keep talking about the economy, we're going to lose.'"

He was telling the truth. You fail.

Okay. You're argument relies on a reporter quoting "an anonymous McCain aid." But if you want to chalk this up as a win, so be it.

Well you said Obama lied, and he clearly showed you were incorrect. Is this your way of conceding you were incorrect?

Nope. This is how:

I was mistaken. Obama did not say "McCain said..." which is what I thought. He correctly quoted the article from which he got the information.

Good enough?

If fairness, in the OP, DarkHelmet mistakenly said: "He made a negative ad taking a quote from Obama quoting McCain..."

Buffalo also mistakenly said "That only confirms that McCain said it."

The only one who got it precisely right, was Obama. Go figure.

Yes, that's true. Good call.
