McPalin Is Out To Lunch
It's more pitiful and sad than anything else, in a lot of ways. McCain just isn't up to this and it's more obvious by the day. Whether he's simply too tired and sick or he's had some strokes, this man shouldn't be exerting himself by trying to maintain the facade of a viable and robust potential president.
This is the audio of a Spanish reporter asking repeatedly if he'd meet with the president of Spain and McCain blabs on with some talking point about Latin America. CNN desperately tries to cover up the fact that the republican candidate for president is a few sandwiches short of a picnic.
Repug panic - Preemptive lying
"This may be my single favorite press release of the entire presidential campaign. McCain campaign spokesperson Brian Rogers issued this statement:
In his rush to score political points on economic disaster, we've heard that at his next event in New Mexico, Senator Obama is about to distort the facts and attack John McCain's call for removing the Chairman of the SEC.
Rogers' concern, obviously, is that Obama would point out that McCain told voters today he would "fire" the chairman of the SEC, when in reality, that's outside the president's authority -- a fact McCain should have realized before tackling the subject.
Regardless, it's more entertaining to realize that the McCain campaign is criticizing Obama for something he might say, before he says it, accusing Obama of "distorting" the facts, before he's even spoken. In other words, the McCain campaign line is, "Obama might point out how McCain screwed up earlier, and if he does, he's being totally unfair -- because we say so."
More panic - Woman claims woman making fun of woman is sexist
"Former Hewlett-Packard CEO, Republican, and moody bitch Carly Fiorina attacked Tina Fey's impersonation of VP candidate Sarah Palin as sexist because "it portrayed the Alaska governor as lacking in substance." The skit aired on Saturday Night Live this past weekend to much acclaim."

LOL. Good one. But according to the conventional wisdom (sic) on the conservative blogs, not to worry: McCain will drop dead at some point in the next 4 years, and Sexy Sarah will be taking over. You know she's up to the task. She's a journalism major afterall, they are sharpies. I know that because I heard a reporter say so.
I think the "conservatives" aren't worried because the fix is in again for the election, even though Barbie's popularity is dropping like a brick and the old man has none.
You can actually surf those sites? I'm impressed at your fortitude.
Olbermann also did a great segment on this.
I'll look for it, Lesley.
