Published: October 11, 2008
DANVILLE, Va. - Republican presidential candidate John McCain's campaign has ousted a prominent Virginia GOP figure who wrote a newspaper column mocking a potential Barack Obama administration.
A McCain spokeswoman said Bobby May was dropped this week from his job as McCain's Buchanan County campaign chairman.
May wrote in his column, "The (clarified) platform of Barack Hussein Obama," that if the Democratic senator were elected he would hire rapper Ludacris to paint the White House black and change the national anthem to the "Black National Anthem."
The column originally appeared in The Voice, a local newspaper.
May has worked on dozens of state Republican campaigns.
