Michael Goldfarb gets owned by Rick Sanchez.

In the wake of the recent Los Angeles Times report that Barack Obama attended a party that was also attended by PLO associate Rashid Khalidi, McCain spokesman Michael Goldfarb today attempted to link Barack Obama to another anti-semite and was called on it by CNN's Rick Sanchez.

Who's leading the conversation?

This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

Rick Sanchez V. Michael Goldfarb: McCain Spokesman Wusses Out On CNN

Oh, dear. Michael Goldfarb, who's clearly better off blogging about ABBA and criticizing people for playing Dungeons and Dragons, just pooped his pants on national television. The McCain campaign is making a last ditch effort to make SCARY MUSLIM NOISES at Barack Obama, and since Goldfarb doesn't have any sort of reputation worth salvaging, it figures that he'd be doing duty here.

But CNN's Rick Sanchez calls Goldfarb out for the hypocrisy of hyping a sinister connection between Obama and a guy that McCain funneled hundreds of thousands of dollars to, and from there, Goldfarb goes right off the rails, refusing to answer Sanchez's questions with anything other than intimations. Repeatedly asked to name a second anti-Semite that Obama allegedly "pals around with," Goldfarb does nothing but issue hollow, Page Six-style intimations.

What a gutless wonder. And here I'd been led to believe that this campaign took its cues from some kind of war hero.

SANCHEZ: Now, is the -- I need to parse this out as best I can from you, Michael. The fact that John McCain's organization gave $448,000 to this group that was founded by Mr. Khalidi, is there no reason for some to be critical of as well just as some might be critical of Barack Obama for being at a meeting with some girl read a poem for example?

GOLDFARB: Look. You are missing the point again, Rick. The point is that Barack Obama has a long track record of being around anti-Semitic and anti-Israel and anti-American rhetoric.

SANCHEZ: Can you name one other person besides Khalidi who he hangs around that is anti-Semitic?

SO where's the mash-up of all these same surrogates into one tape, every time they've blown their spewl down their legs when confronted by anyone with a challenge?

It's beyond hilarious! It's sad.

Hetep and Respect JEREMIAH JOHNSON I added my two cents to the YouTube commenters

Hetep and Respect folks Micheal Goldfarb has made himself a national disgrace like Pandora Palin and "Joe" the "Plumber". How many more sheepeople will McCain drive off the honesty and integrity cliff in his straight talk Express.
