Republican Presidential nominee John McCain stormed into Pennsylvania today to the tune of "Eye of the Tiger," leading a rally at TC Millwork, in a Bensalem, Bucks County industrial park, before more than 1,000 enthusiastic spectators.
The crowd greeted McCain with chants of U-S-A, U-S-A.
He led off his speech by ripping Democrat Barack Obama for appearing on stage in Tampa, Fla. yesterday with players from the Phillies World Series opponents, the Tampa Bay Rays, after Obama pledged two weeks ago to root for the Phils.
"When he's campaigning in Philadelphia, he roots for the Phillies, and when he's campaigning in Tampa Bay, he shows love to the Rays," McCain said. "It's kind of like the way he campaigns on tax cuts, but then votes for tax increases after he's elected."
The Obama campaign has said the Democrat continues to root for the Phillies and was simply showing appreciation for Rays fans among his supporters yesterday.
McCain seized on recent remarks by Obama, that his tax plan would "spread the wealth around" and by vice presidential nominee Joe Biden that a newly elected President Obama would be tested with a world crisis within six months, to raise doubt about his Democratic opponent.
"We know Senator Obama won't have the right response," McCain said. "We've seen the wrong response from him over and over in this campaign."

Saw it earlier today... loved McCain... he was pretty scrappy!
Look at the size of McCain’s event vs. the size of Sarah’s events.
1000 vs. 5000+ for all of her events with some of them in the 20’s.
That should be a real eye-opener for McCain.
Left tv on and just woke up to a horror show called David Letterman. He had Bill Clinton of all people as guest. I don’t think I have ever been so disgusted in my life. Here is a man who so disgraced himself in office, disgraced the office, helped to bring about 9/11 and the financial downfall of the country sitting there acting in his best elistist form along with the dumbest entertainer alive, David Letterman. I could only stomach a few minutes.
I am so sorry our country has to endure these low life trashy thugs.

You mean David Weatherman?
Next...send in Sarah as the closer.
I was arguing with a libtard neighbor last night about how dangerous it be voting for O.Hussein and that even Biden admitted as much. He used the typical “Palin has no experience either” argument which I effectively countered with the fact that at least she has executive experience. Then, I was unfortunately floored when he asked me what executive experience McCain has, can someone help me counter this jerk. I’m sure he has some but I couldn’t come up with it at that moment.
Jim Geraghty had an article about John McCain’s executive experience while serving over twenty-two years in the Navy.....

He was a Naval officer and commanded the largest squadron in the Navy.
And if you knew how crazy Navy Aviators are...
(Not that that’s a bad thing, ya know...)
It’s more than executive experience for Palin. At least Palin sees the world through clear-eyed view of what we are facing. Obama wants to disarm the United States while thinking talks are the only answer. He’s on record in his pascifist views and that’s what is most troubling.
McCain doesn’t have executive experience, outside maybe citing something in his military past. NOBODY on the Dem ticket has a lick of executive experience. Unless you count Obama’s work heading a charitable board for his terrorist friend. Joe Biden couldn’t hold a job managing a Home Depot.
However, there is no question that McCain is far more experienced than Obama and far more qualified to lead in every way.
You would do well to remind said Libtard that having to compare our VP to his P is an indication of just how pathetically unqualified Obama actually is.
Sure, their VP has been in the Senate since the dawn of time, but he’s been wrong at every turn on every major policy decision of the past 30 years. 36 years of being a complete moron doesn’t lend credence to the idea of promoting a person.
She's back in PA tomorrow!
