Holy crap! Did McCain just accuse ACORN of potentially tearing a hole in the space-time continuum? ---

McCain has a profound sense of justice in regards to himself and none in regards to his opponent. ---

> [@Diogenes\_the\_Cynic](#): > > 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. To steal a line from Bill Maher (stupid five day podcast delay), Palin would be a horrible VP or President, but would make an excellent Grand Wizard. ---

You sleazeball, McCain. I think Obama did well responding to a crazy person. apparently, McCain stands for all things honorable and Right. He’s delusional if he thinks we don’t know about the push polling and the negative ads etc. GOOD question, Bob. Please explain how well Bible Spice will do, Johnnyboy.
