Sheeper.....just a civil question, in a civil discussion.
Does McCain impress you in some way that many other people just can't fathom?
I will firstly, preface by saying I was impressed in the run-up to the 2000 Presidential Election.....but McCain got thrown under the bus, then.
OK, fast-forward to now.....the Man served, in Vietnam, unlike certain other 'residents' of the White House and the Naval Observatory, at
present.
Question: What about a person's character can not be called into question when the Campaign 'smears' the main opponent, based on the perception of
somne sort of 'arrogance' or 'elitism'....when, in fact, as has come to light....Senator John McCain is actually quite wealthy and,
ummmm.....somewhat elitist.
I mean, Obama is 'smeared for 'eating Arugula'.....but McCain is served cous-cous.....at his 'barbeque'....on his own 'ranch' in Sedona, AZ?
(source...MSNBC)
I mean, 'quien es mas macho???' (to steal a funny bit from SNL....)
BUT, Senator Obama goes on vacation, to the State of his birth.....and McCain {or his Campaign} steps on his Johnson so many times???
Oh, wait....the McCain Campaign has been on record to say.....that their Candidate does not speak for the Campaign. How funny is that??
Now....I'll admit, the question thrown at him may have been Politically motivated.....about how many homes he and his wife own.....but, don't you
think his answer, off the cuff, was incredibly bad?
I would anticipate I'd elect a clear thinker next time, not a guy who gets easily thrown by a simple question about what kind of Real Estate he
owns.....which is likely in his current wife's name.....(OOPS!! Maybe Cindy McCain is just a Hillary in disguise....)
