John McCain’s Mother Trashes Mormons of Salt Lake for Olympic Scandal

Republican Presidential hopeful, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., and his 95-year-old mother Roberta McCain get ready for a live interview with Hard Ball’s Chris Mathews, Friday, Nov. 9, 2007, in a hotel room in Meredith, N.H.

Of course, Senator John McCain disavowed the remarks of his mother, Roberta:

When asked about former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney’s experience by Hardball host Chris Matthews, Roberta McCain, who’s campaigning in New Hampshire with her son at the age of 95, said “as far as the Salt Lake City thing, he’s a Mormon and the Mormons of Salt Lake City had caused that scandal. And to clean that up, it’s not a subject.”

A new found vigor desperation in the McCain campaign or did the GOP Presidential campaign just turn NASTY?
