As McCain gets a bit more behind in the polls, his campaign gets nastier. Some suggest that he can no longer afford the positive attidude. It’s time to get real.
Palin and McCain both tried to expose, what they call the ‘real’ Obama. That is, his hidden ugly side that interacts with terrorists etc. In an attempt to change focus from today’s america to Obama’s past, they have tried to raise doubt about his person. I personally think that this plan is kinda stupid and leaves everyone with the impression of the GOP as a political party without a message.
And then, this happened. THAT ONE! Does this miniature semantic mistake from McCain in the middle of the second debate in fact show us the real McCain? One can only guess. I think not - but I know that the strategy has backfired. As many other strategies from the McCain/Palin camp.
To the nerds: YES, It’s sounds like and is inspired by a well known Beatles song!
I just came back from a quick visit to Seattle and the Bumbershoot Festival. It was really nice and what FANTASTIC people there!! I had a really good time chatting to people at the festival. Sometimes we europeans think that we are all alone - we certainly have some good pals over there! Cheers!
Well, apart from the festival and visiting historic landmarks as the house where Kurt Cobain shot himself one major thing had an impact on me. Well two actually - counting Obamas speech at the democratic convention in Denver that is. The appearance of Sarah Palin. The govenor from Alaska, and now crown princess of McCains potential chair in the oval office. WOW! What a gal! Yihaa!
And what a fantastic moron she is. She held a very special speech, when she was revealed as the vice presidential candidate. I made a song about, what it sounded like in my ears.
It’s funnier to be a vice president
in a republican government
than to have a teenage girl who is pregnant
singin’ ooh-la-di-lah
singin’ ooh-la-di-lah
We’re gonna rid the streets of every fag
And send every healthy boy away to Iraq
This is how we will relieve this country’s burdened back
singin’ ooh-la-di-lah
singin’ ooh-la-di-lah
Confess to the choir
Confess to the status quo
Repeat the mantra the resides within
The blockbuster devil is a big black sin
Confess to the maker
Confess every microscope
The truth lies in babies that have not yet been born
The net beneath Darwin is about to be torn
The rural Alaska has got it right
Pro-choice is substituted with a Pro-fight
In school you will learn about intelligent design
And that kingdom comes from a bold decline
Confess to the choir
Confess to the status quo
Repeat the mantra the resides within
The blockbuster devil is a big black sin
Confess to the maker
Confess every microscope
The truth lies in babies that have not yet been born
The net beneath Darwin is about to be torn
