rssWhat Was That About Putting Politics Aside?

Amount of time it took the McCain campaign to use its supposedly apolitical stunt for political gain: Zero seconds.
This is from the McCain campaign statement announcing the resumption of campaign activities — or, at least, whatever activities actually stopped:
The difference between Barack Obama and John McCain was apparent during the White House meeting yesterday where Barack Obama’s priority was political posturing in his opening monologue defending the package as it stands. John McCain listened to all sides so he could help focus the debate on finding a bipartisan resolution that is in the interest of taxpayers and homeowners. The Democratic interests stood together in opposition to an agreement that would accommodate additional taxpayer protections.
Yeah, no politics here.

I cannot wait until November 5th to have this over with! The presidential campaigns have gotten worse and worse and now, this campaign, is completely disgusting. The McCain campaign is all about Johnnie proving to HIS daddy that he is going to be even bigger and btter than an Admiral, he is going to be his daddy's Commander-in-Chief. Take that Mr. Daddy!
The McCain campaign is showing that their mud is muddier, their tricks are truly down and dirty, and the American people don't matter at all. Yes, the Obama campaign has thrown some mud, but the campaign tried for 18 months to keep their campaign above the dirt, but the electorate wasn't happy with that. They (including myself) wanted to see more anger, more passion, and more hitting back. Still, the Obama campaign is far more about issues and far less about tricks and mud.
John McCain should just give up and go home to get some much needed rest. He's proving that his career is over. He has no will of his own since he is being manipulated by his “base.” His choice of Palin was a childish (is that the word for a 72-year old?) reaction. And his latest gambit of “suspending” his campaign and cancelling the debate were nothing more than desperation. Is this the way he will run his presidency? Oh, wait. Actually, the Rove faction are not pushing to have McCain as president, rather they will relegate him to his easy chair and have Palin run the country as the new Cheney. To quote Barack Obama, ENOUGH.
