The Hunt For McCain's October

Adm. Painter: What's his plan?
Jack Ryan: His plan?
Adm. Painter
: Russians don't take a dump, son, without a
plan.


John McCain has launched his last ditch plan for taking over the White House and it includes all the sludge-pumping he can muster.
Captain Davenport: They're pinging away with their
active sonar like they're looking for something, but nobody's listening.

Jack Ryan: What do you mean?
Captain Davenport: Well, they're moving at almost
forty knots. At that speed, they could run right over my daughter's stereo and
not hear it.


McCain and his Mini-maverick are pumping so much chaff into the air that it's nearly impossible to sort out issues from slanders. But that's not the part that worries me. I don't think the American people are going to fall for US Weekly politics in a time of a crashing economy and two, nearly three, wars. What I'm worried about is what McCampaign is trying to incite.
Palin then went on to blame Katie Couric's questions for her "less-than-successful
interview with kinda mainstream media." At that, Palin supporters turned on
reporters in the press area, waving thunder sticks and shouting abuse. Others
hurled obscenities at a camera crew. One Palin supporter shouted a racial
epithet at an African American sound man for a network and told him, "Sit down,
boy."

That's not enough for the Embarracuda, though.
"Boooo!" the crowd repeated.

"Kill him!" proposed one man in the audience.

Palin went on to say that "Obama held one of the first meetings of
his political career in Bill Ayers's living room, and they've worked together on
various projects in Chicago." Here, Palin began to connect the dots.


Will that be enough? Will the crowd come to their collective senses after someone gets hurt or killed? How does the Secret Service feel about having to stand in front of crowds that are being exhorted to shouts of, "Treason?"
Admiral Josh Painter: This business will get out of control. It will get out of
control and we'll be lucky to live through it.

McCain is about to learn that the problem with dancig with a bear is that the bear gets to decide when you're done. Truly sad.
