Media suckers
For a brief moment last night, Mitt Romney was John McCain's running mate. Trusted pundit Mark Halperin of Time reported that his GOP sources had told him that McCain would ask Mitt to join him on the ticket.
But within hours Halperin pulled down his post—leaving an unsightly blank space. Now, similar unnamed GOP sources say McCain has made NO decision.
Why would Halperin's sources burn him?
I'm guessing this is another hoax by McCain, the GOP's Kokopelli, to divert attention away from the howler of McCain not knowing how many houses he owns.
In a breathtaking demonstration that he could, indeed, be more out of touch with the common folks than even Marie Antionette — McCain was unable to answer the simple question: How many houses do you own? When he turned the question over to his staff, it came up with the unsatisfying answer: "at least six."
If you remember, McCain pulled a similar prank on the media when Obama had the press corps following him around the Middle East and Europe. To divert some attention to himself, McCain hinted he would announce his Veep pick any day. Then never did.

Just another prime example of why anyone even considering voting for McCain is a total idiot.
No doubt. obviously the very un-idiotic thing to do would be to vote for the candidate who has no real credible experience that would qualify him for presidency, but looks and sounds good in front of a microphone and camera. What we need is a President who will say or do anything to be elected, one who stands for change. Not the kind of CHANGE any of us will ever get to see or participate in, but the kind of change that is really the same kind of stuff we've had all along -just delivered to us in a really nice new package. Indeed, Obama is the feel good candidate because he's not 80 and his skin isn't decayed and hanging loosely from his face. We need to elect Barack Obama because he's really good at talking and then maybe if we do, people in Europe will like us.
OBAMA-BIDEN 08!
