By Jessica Alaimo, PolitickerME.com Reporter[img_assist|nid=3057|title=John McCain and Susan Collins|desc=Getty Images Photo |link=none|align=center|width=420|height=276]Collins Watch flags this video of John McCain on Fox News Sunday, where Republican Presidential candidate John McCain addresses the robocalls made by his campaign, tying Democratic candidate Barack Obama with 60’s radical activist Bill Ayers.
On Friday, U.S. Sen. Susan Collins denounced these tactics at the request of the Maine Democratic Party, and called on the McCain campaign to stop the calls immediately.
On Fox, McCain was asked about Collins’ request.
Chris Wallace asked: “Republican Senator Susan Collins, the co-chair of your campaign in Maine, has asked you to stop the robocalls. Will you do that?”
“Of course not,” McCain responded.
