Oh MaGoo, you've done it again...

[libh8er]

I hope McCain is only applying lube and no more for what’s to come later.

[oldbill]

OK, I’ll be the first person in the whole country to bring it up. Make sure I get credit when it finally becomes a campaign issue.

Biden has a draft dodger problem.

[originalbuckeye]

As they have known each other for so long, I do worry that Biden knows how to push McCain's buttons. Obama is counting on Biden to raise McCain's famous temper.

[AuntB]

Ping me when you find a quote where McCain is praising a conservative or calling one ‘friend’.

[SolidWood]

Get real. McCain is doing this knowingly and in the context of his biting TV ads against Biden it has to be understood as a subtle way of saying "Thanks for picking Biden! What a gift!"

Read between the lines:

"I think he's a good selection,(for us, haha!)" McCain told CBS’s Katie Couric. "Joe and I have been friends for many, many years, and we know each other very well,(so I know what we're up against! Hahaha!), and so I think [Obama’s] made a very wise selection (wink wink nudge nudge)

[moose2004]

It’s only the good cop bad cop routine, if McCain had trashed Joe then the media would have attacked McCain by saying his famous temper was on display. McCain did the right thing, he also released this ad last night, hardly flattering of Obambi:

McCain can continue playing nice guy to those who would neuter him in a heartbeat, it's his style.

But he has a Golden Opportunity here if he takes advantage of it.

And, he could even keep kissing up to those who are preparing to cut off his legs.

[popdonnelly]

McCain being diplomatic. I’ve always wondered why politicians consider it necessary to be diplomatic to people who would stick a knife in them in a second.

[RetSignman]

GOOD FRIENDS AND THEY BELIEVE IN 'SHARING' TOO. S/

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

McCain should shut up while he’s ahead right now.

[VRWC For Truth]

It’s a ONE PARTY lovefest in the Senate.

[shrinkermd]

Senator McCain has class. People with class do not make personal attacks simply because they disagree with someone. Indeed, people with class can make friends and good relationships with people they disagree with.

DU, Moveon, Daily Kos all lack class. Hopefully, Freepers do have class.

Definition Of Hypocrisy
I believe the Democrats have suddenly developed a keen sense of morality.

John Edwards has been banned from making a speech at the Democratic National Convention for having an affair and lying about it. Instead Bill Clinton will be speaking in his place!

LOL!

[Cinnamon Girl]

McCain is the only one who’s playing it SMART. If people go overboard trashing Hair Plugs for Clowns, he’s liable to get dropped at the convention in favor of Hillary.

So people should shut up.

[Jeff Chandler]

“Joe and I have been friends for many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many years...”

[Liberty2007]

well, more more I feel better about not voting for either guy

[clintonh8r]

I’m less concerned with RAT VP pick than McQueeg’s. If it isn’t a bona fide conservative he will lose.

[RichInOC]

Well, from my point of view, it is a wise choice. But then, I want the Democratic ticket to be as big a train wreck as it possibly can be. I would have thought Obama had a more self-preserving take on the situation.

[BunnySlippers]

Classic McCain. Thankfully the GOP is doing strategy and ads or he’d be conducting a love-fest.

[Mojave]

"I think he's a good selection," McCain told CBS’s Katie Couric. "Joe and I have been friends for many, many years, and we know each other very well, and so I think [Obama’s] made a very wise selection.

What the hell is wrong with John?
