Reporting on its new poll showing an Obama advantage of seven points in Ohio, the Columbus Dispatch relates the following:

Robert Neeley Sr., 73, of Fairfield in southwestern Ohio, retired from the U.S. Air Force, goes even further.

"He is anti-American and his disrespect to our flag and our Bible proves it. He is a Muslim because his name and his beliefs show it. He is for everything that a Christian is against.

"I don't believe that he was actually born in the U.S. He has a lot of bad baggage."

(Isn't it extraordinary what people will say to reporters?)
