From an article at Cbs2chicago.com:
Don Wade's become a Chicago radio institution by combining a very funny sense of humor with hard-edged conservative commentary.
But Friday morning, even his co-host and wife, Roma, objected when Wade imagined how Barack Obama's allegedly adoring press corps would cover it if the senator murdered his grandmother, CBS 2 Political Editor Mike Flannery reports.
Barack Obama and a Secret Service agent walked on a back street in Honolulu Friday as the senator made what may be his final visit with his gravely ill grandmother. She's retired bank vice president Madelyn Dunham.
She was the subject of a morbid attempt at humor by morning drive time host Don Wade. Wade claimed reporters would let Obama get away with anything, even if they were shown videotape of the senator suffocating his own grandmother.

Karen Hatter, I like this story. It's good stuff. I wonder if any of this is actually sticking to the McCain campaign, or if people are writing these incidents off to "random crazies"?

It probably is one of - if not THE - most tasteless example of the McCain/Palin whining about media coverage. It will be interesting to see how the doper, the felon and the pervert of right-wing radio react.
I bet they all play the victim, abusers are good at doing that.

Is it racism or is it basic ignorance and greed overriding elegance of thinking? Is this just a way to make himself heard, a way to create some waves around him to gain media points? We have gotten used to this kind of talk in America, even by a professional on the radio waves. If he were a professional in France people would just seriously doubt the mental health and stability of someone with that kind of morbid imagination. It would be considered very strange and perverse thinking - like a serial killer revealing his thoughts aloud.
