John McCain Rocks the House at the Alfred House Dinner. He is hilarious! Great digs at Obama's expense. Everyone is dying laughing even Hillary!
That is one of the most impressive performances of comic frame argumentation I have ever seen.
It was like the Dole Gore humor epiphanies but prior to the election.
This could be quite helpful.

He was simply fabulous. Many a truth is said in jest and his comments regarding Olberman/Matthews had to leave a mark. His closing comments toward Obama proves he is a class act.
WOW! I like this McCain.
"We know the press is really an independent-minded, civic-minded, non-partisan group. Like ACORN."
He showed a lot of class.

I about fell over when he implied that Hillary was pulling for him. I think that line got the most laughs.
“He even has a pet name for me...George Bush”
HILARIOUS!
Wasn’t it Saul Alinsky that said that there was no defense against ridicule?
I also like the "messiah is above my pay grade"!
He was awesome! And then NObama had to get up and be a huge buzz-kill.
McCain Owes Me A New Keyboard
McCain said he couldn’t help feeling that there are
people in this crowd pulling for him (the underdog) ...
got a huge applause and cheering. Then the punch line.
Great set up.
I loved the jabs at MSNBC, especially Chris Matthews and
Keith Olbermann. McCain said that he used to be a favorite
guest of Chris Matthews, but he was thrown over for another.
McCain said, he couldn't compete with tingles up Matthews
leg, and being a Maverick was the best he could do, because
being a Messiah was above his paygrade.
Obama was shaken up. He kept his head down and read his entire speech.
“Obama was shaken up. He kept his head down and read his entire speech.”
He knew he was had!!! It was fantastic......way to go “old Man”.....knocked out the one!!!! Rocky-Rocky-Rocky
