McCain: I Don’t Need To Be In DC To Focus On The Bailout, I Just Need A Phone

• September 28, 2008

He’s right, of course, though why he couldn’t have recognized that two days ago instead of pulling the whole “I’m suspending my campaign” stump is beyond me.

After interrupting his presidential campaign to come back to Washington on Thursday morning to try to push forward a $700 billion bailout deal, Mr. McCain remained in his condominium in Arlington, Va., until 12:30 p.m. Saturday, when he emerged and made a one-minute trip in his motorcade to his campaign headquarters around the corner. . . .
Asked why Mr. McCain did not go to Capitol Hill after coming back to Washington to help with negotiations, Mr. Salter replied that “he can effectively do what he needs to do by phone.’’

Obama is a terrible candidate. He’s shallow, prone to stupid and easily-avoided mistakes and (most importantly) a poor leader. But he could win this election, if only because Republicans managed to nominate a man with the potential for being an even worse candidate than Obama.

Rob, now I love you and all, but PAH-LEEZ, pahleez, at a risk of mixing metaphors, do not snowball my guy into your train wreck. Yours is a spectacular supernova that is just a sick pleasure to watch.

If you want a good show from Obama, just wait till he shows his teeth. McCain was on the ropes and…clemency. Damn white gloves.

The funniest part of the debate, imho, and you will probably disagree with me here too, but still – when McCain struggled with the Iranian leader’s name. Ahmadinejad. I think he tried to say it at least 4 times. May be 5; I am old, I lose count easily. So, in any case, there he is, squeezing out a syllable like a consonated…no, let’s not go there with the image, I am going to stay clean here. So, in any case, there is McCain, struggling, and in comes a sotto voce from Obama: “yeah, it’s a tough one”.

A tough one, he says. And not condescendingly, for that would be funny as hell. No! He says it with genuine empathy and solidarity. And then, finally, two sentences later, McCain FINALLY births it: Ahmadinejad. When it no longer matters. Way to remind everyone yet one more time. Talk about pulling a loss out of jaws of …well, it was already a loss. But you got to admit, that “tough one” comment – precious. Kinder, gentler liberalism.

Rob,
My apologies then, for failing to realize just how far left McCain has flipped-flopped his way from the true center of the country. LMAO.

I am off to a mall to purchase a hat so as to enable me to take it off to you, sir. Behind a patina of the cold metallic exterior there hides one funny guy, Rob. Enjoy the rest of the elections.

Personally, I can’t wait until Oct. 2

Repeat after me: a flippiest flip-flopper that ever flopped.

This campaign is imploding so fast, it is hard to keep up with the latest fiasco. Which brings us, quite naturally to Ms Palin. I wonder what she will fail at next. There’s still a couple of days before the debate. Troopergate – tampering, but that was McCain’s ppl, not hers. A rousing interview? Nah, that’s been done.

A nipple! I predict a wardrobe malfunction. I bet we see an inadvertent nipple to keep the white male electorate distracted. Is anyone reading the sayanything thing in Vegas? Can you get me the odds on a Palinniple? TIA

Republican ridiculed Obama for saying the same thing several days ago.

These guys are both jokers. There’s so little difference between these two.

Oh well…

Obama is way out left, and McCain is to the left of center

I prefer way out center…

I wonder why you’d assume that McCain is my candidate? I’m not voting for him. My candidate lost in the primaries when Republicans across the country decided to stay on the same road that lost them the majorities in Congress in 2006.

I think there are a lot of differences between these two guys, actually. Obama is way out left, and McCain is to the left of center.

But neither of them are good candidates.

What’s funny is that, your blinkered partisanship aside, both campaigns seem to be engaged in a struggle to out-fiasco one another each and every week.
