Excerpts from McCain's Interview With Fox News' Sean Hannity
SENATOR JOHN MCCAIN TELLS SEAN HANNITY THAT HE IS ‘WORRIED' OF VOTER FRAUD
In an interview on FOX News Channel's Hannity and Colmes, airing this eveing, Senator John McCain tells Hannity and Colmes co-host Sean Hannity on concerns of voter fraud, “I'm worried about these controversies and I'm particularly worried in Ohio.”
ON WHETHER HE'S CONCERNED WITH VOTER FRAUD:
“Sure I am. Sure I'm worried about these controversies and I'm particularly worried in Ohio.”
ON THE FINAL DAYS OF THE CAMPAIGN:
“It reminds me very much of the early primaries, New Hampshire, Florida, and other places, where we were running behind and we sensed this momentum building.”
“And that isn't just my impression, that's what our pollsters are showing, and that's what even some of the pundits are saying.”
“The level of this excitement I have not seen matched.”
ON ELECTION NIGHT:
“I think that more than one candidate has read the polls at this time and not the trends and I guarantee you one thing -- we'll be up late on election night, and I guarantee you that rallies like these that are going on in the next seven days, we're going on this election.”
ON USING THE TERM ‘SENATOR REDISTRIBUTION' FOR OBAMA:
“…it's very obvious from a long record of being in the far left-hand lane of American politics.
“…he has a clear record of being the most liberal senator in the United States Senate.”
“We've seen that act before…that the solution to America's problems is to take money from one group of Americans and give it to another.”
“Now, that has been proven to be a very bad idea in America, but also in other countries.”
ON JOE THE PLUMBER:
“…it's amazing. This "Joe the Plumber" event has really been a catalyst.”
ON OBAMA'S ECONOMIC POLICIES BEING ‘SOCIALIST' POLICIES:
“Certainly it's part of the socialist creed, philosophy, to share the wealth. Now if Senator Obama's a "socialist" -- and that is something that I'll let those theoreticians decide.”
“But the fact is that it's a far-left liberal view that you need to take money from one group of Americans and give it to another, to take people who have built up through their labor and their hard work and their dedication to the free enterprise system and take it away from them.”
“Now, of course we have an obligation to take care of citizens in our society who can't care for themselves. That's why we have those programs, the Safety Net Program.”
“But you know, the Safety Net Program, a lot of Americans pay in to Social Security, they pay in to a number of those programs.”
