Which IS an attack on McCain.

A lot do fool around, if I recall like 70% of the country does it, but very, very view base their platform on "family values" like Edwards.

Like firstdown illuded to, if we're talking about some republican and Clinton is brought up for instance, people, including Matty, get upset for not sticking with the subject and making it a political war. This is not a McCain debate, this is about Edwards who is supposed to be a "morals leader". So it doesn't really matter what Matty is trying to say, it matters that he is missing the point and trying to lessen what Edwards did.
