Folks, there’s a time for everything. Tonite was not the night to attack. I have no problem with what McCain said. Let him play the ‘good cop’ - and let the ‘attack’ line come from somewhere else on this day.
Michele’s ok. She’s on the right side. However, you gotta give McCain some slack (on this day at least). Don’t forget, he’s the one that has okd the constant 14 day carpet-bombing attacks on Nobama, so I’m not going to start second-guessing him or knee-jerk criticising him on one comment, today of all days.
Anyone who has been watching McCain's TV ads knows that his kid gloves are off.
This was the anniversary of September 11, so I imagine that he said all of this to keep things pleasant.
And besides, it is a perfect strategy after all the disgusting behavior of the 0bama crowd of the last 3 wks, it puts the onus on them.
Sounds like 100% purist Michelle is at it again. There wasn't this much reaction to it on the live thread, for crying out loud.
Unrelated note - I am watching the History Channel "120 Minutes" or whatever it is called. I feel like I am going to hurl. Bad.
I love Michelle and agree with her about 99% of the time but this is one time I think McCain did the right thing.
McCain took the high road of a statesman and left Obama to wallow in his pig sty.
If I ever got into a barroom fight Michelle would be a welcomed addition to my puny defense.
“Let him play the ‘good cop’ - and let the ‘attack’ line come from somewhere else on this day.”
Rudy did a real good job of just that on Hannity tonight. He said, “I’d like to know what his community service entails” and mentioned his unflattering protege who got him into community organizing.
There’s more than meets the eye on this story, and Rudy and McCain know it.
