An attack on his plan is an attack on him. Damn, McCain _does_ take this personally. And, I’ll add, y’know who fucking cares about Joe the Plumber? ---

The headline is that McCain was still not man enough to say anything to Obama’s face. All he did was whine about somebody who’s not even part of Obama’s campaign said about McCain/Palin’s little klan rallies. ---

Ouch; McCain looked positively disturbed when the rallies are mentioned. And ooh, he’s making excuses for himself now. And he got beaten to the terrorist’s trump card. Talk about losing the initiative. ---
