Dems Think McCain's Michigan Pullout is a Head Fake
The Patriot Room ^ | October 4, 2008 | Bill Dupray

Sounds like moonbat paranoia. After all, McCain is either in or out of Michigan, and everyone is watching. According to the L.A. Times, not exactly part of the right-wing machine, Obama is the Magic Negro. McCain, rest assured, is not the Magic Hero. So since McCain is not magic, I am not sure how the Obamabots think McCain is going to pull this off. But they are awfully suspicious.

On the day after John McCain scratched Michigan from the battleground state list, Barack Obama's campaign said it would pretend the whole announcement never happened, Democrats wondered if it was all a trick, and Sarah Palin asked for a second chance to win over the state's voters.

"We're not going to be left flat-footed here," an Obama campaign source said Friday. The source, who was not authorized to speak publicly, said there has been no discussion within the campaign of moving staff to other states, as the McCain campaign said Thursday it will do. For now, Obama's television ads remain on the air, and the campaign will continue its aggressive field organizing efforts, including a voter registration drive before Michigan's Monday deadline.

That will be welcome news to Democratic insiders, who fretted Friday about the possibility of a McCain ruse to lull them into complacency and of fears the Obama campaign would let up on its efforts here.

Maybe the Dems think Sarah Palin is magic (now, they may be onto something there). Maybe they think that Sarah's mere presence in the state, without advertising or campaign staff, can win the state for the GOP.

ARTHUR: Who did we lose?

LAUNCELOT: Sir Gawain.

GALAHAD: Ector.

ARTHUR: And Bors. Five.

GALAHAD: Three, sir!

ARTHUR: Three. Well, we'll not risk another frontal assault. That rabbit's dynamite.

ROBIN: Would it help to confuse him if we ran away more.

ARTHUR: Shut up. Go and change your armor.

GALAHAD: Let us taunt it. It may become so cross that it will make a mistake.

ARTHUR: Like what?

GALAHAD: Do we have any bows?

ARTHUR: No.

LAUNCELOT: We have the Holy Hand Grenade.

ROBIN: The what?

ARTHUR: The Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch. 'Tis one of the sacred relics Brother Maynard always carries with him.

ALL: Yes. Of course.

There you go. McCain needs the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch.

...And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, "O Lord, bless this Thy hand grenade that with it Thou mayest blow Thine enemies to tiny bits, in Thy mercy."

And the Lord did grin and the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths and carp and anchovies and orangutans and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats and large chu...

[At this point, the friar is urged by Brother Maynard to "skip a bit, brother"]

... And the Lord spake, saying,

"First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."\

Amen.

Come to think of it, McCain already has the "Holy Hand Grenade of Alaska":
