McCain Opens the Wrong End of a Can of Whupass!


McCain/Palin are running scared. They can't run on the issues because they're squarely on the opposite side of the electorate. That "maverick" BS has worn gossamer thin. McCain can't shake his Republican/Wall Street connections. After two years of free ride as the Great American Hero, people are beginning to put the spotlight on Johnny and what really happened and it looks like he's been patting himself on the back way too much.

So what are the Geezer and the Hairdo going to come up with? They decided to scrape the very bottom of their barrel and go for the last resort of all reprobates and degenerates - smear politics.

They're going to try to link Obama with a 60's radical - because that's about all they've got. Now they'll have to lie through their teeth and resort to sleazy innuendo to make something out of absolutely nothing - but when there's no integrity, they'll literally stoop to anything. Next up with be a rehash of Obama's minister. Anything, they're scared out of their wits.

Witless? Oh indeed. You see it's McCain who has the real skeletons in his closet and they're just the kind of skeletons you don't want anyone looking at right now. There's the bones of Charles Keating, the Lincoln Savings & Loan swindler that McCain carried water for back in the day when mom & pop life savings were getting - is "stolen" too strong a word? Nah.

Then there's McCain's close buddy and campaign economic advisor Phil Gramm, who did more than any other American to facilitate the Wall Street collapse by using his authority as then Senate Banking chairman to introduce and push through a bill allowing totally unregulated Credit Default Swaps, the 60 Trillion dollar scam that derailed everything.

McCain's the one who can't stand up to scrutiny and, fortunately, Obama is hitting back, reviving the record of McCain-Keating for starters. He's got a month's worth of revelations and trips down McCain's Memory Lane to fill the rest of the campaign and it's all killer stuff.

So, John, bring it on. You've already abandoned Michigan. Then you abandoned the issues. All you've got left is smear and that's a game that you can only lose.

Is McCain napping in that photo or just so deeply in love he doesn't care what he looks like?
