ARLINGTON, VA -- Today, U.S. Senator John McCain's presidential campaign released its latest television ad, entitled "Convention Night." The ad features John McCain offering his congratulations to Barack Obama for receiving the nomination of the Democratic Party on this important day in American history. The ad will air on national cable and in key states.

Especially since he took a pot shot at Obama during this ad.
And then talked up the “historic” nature.
juggler vein? that must be right next to the “funny” bone ....
“Please please PLEASE make it Palin! I just think that it would really stick a knife in the “diversity” mantra of the Democratic Party...”
Yeah, and then the Pub Party will wear the mantel of diversity, right? Wrong. If he picks a no-name, inexperienced woman like Palin, just for the sake of having a woman (which is what the Dems do, pick a PC candidate), then McCain is a dolt. I don’t believe he will do this.
Palin as VP (assuming the GOP wins this election) greatly minimizes Hillary’s main selling point for her subsequent attempts at the White House.
For what its worth a Gulfstream landed in Ohio 3 hours ago. It departure was from Anchorage Alaska.
There is no doubt that Barakc Obama being a nominee is a very significant event in this nation’s history. But how much does that detract from a Palin VP choice? McCain would be best served by choosing someone who can step in a nd lead—like John stated recently—and not just a token selection like Palin would be in too many peoples’ calculus.
Hillary would become another has been on the ash heap of history.
That would sound so much better if you'd deliver it in the Rush-Limbaugh-imitating-Fritz-Hollings voice:
Der's a whole lotta speculatin goin on over heah!
But then nothing will appease you short of a Romney choice, so you denigrate everyone else out of hand. Here’s a clue: nothing you or I post at FR will effect the choice one way or the other, so why not be objective rather than just a snot.
You know i am coming to the same idea about him. He’s played this Veep thing well. And frankly he saw that it may be hillary as the nomination and didn’t go after obama until it became clear it would be obama.
He’s begining to show himself as a very shrewed person and a a great advesary. If he would ONLY get right on amnesty i could really like this guy
That’s exactly what he did. Great political chess move.
and the smug look on his face....
I hope you are right.
(Wiping away a tear) Why must you crush my dreams??? Wouldn’t it be worth it all just once, just once, to see Hillary’s pantsuit spontaneously combust at the thought of another woman in the Oval Office?
I have a dream...
Good observation.
“so why not be objective rather than just a snot”
LOL! You and the word objective should not be used in the same sentence.
“he anticipated Obama’s angry, whining acceptance speech”
I think the one word that fits Obama more than any other is “imperious”. And imperious can look almost angry, and definitely arrogant and nose-in-the air as he almost always is. But when he’s really smiling he looks like a kid. He doesn’t have a good, in between expression.
Palin would be the perfect debate candidate to pit up against Angry Joe.
Sarah Palin has shown more sand and initiative in her two years in office than any ten male Alaska politicians you could name.
“Does anyone know where she’s at tonight? Heading to Dayton?”
Sarah Palin reportedly just flew from Alaska to Ohio by chartered plane.
I can’t think of any reason to have her there and then pick someone else.
I’m hoping Barry and the MSM are about to have their worst nightmare come true. Landslide! Wipeout! The only smiling Rats will be Joe, Bill and Hillary. It’s sweet revenge for Hillary from her good buddy John McCain.
