McCain: A Chameleon On Plaid
I don’t have a lot of time, but I wanted to share something with you that I noticed on the John McCain campaign website. Well… a couple things.
- The McCain site is a bit busy for my taste. A static image does it no justice.
- Is that an elephant (symbol of the Republican Party) eating a man on the left? … a faceless “common man”? Oddly appropriate, don’t you think?
- I’d never seen a picture of Cindy… All I’d heard is she has (had ?) a penchant for plagiarizing dessert recipies from websites. She looks a little “worked on” and creepy… Shades of Stepfordness… kinda like Laura Bush. Eek.
- Um… Blue? McCain’s a Republican, right?
- …and the reason I’ve gathered you all here today: John McCain is available in “Home”, “Business” and “Ultimate” editions, just like MS Windows Vista!

“Select your JohnMcCain.com edition”?!
Sure, politicians have been giving different speeches to the VFW than they would give to a crowd of unionized school teachers… probably forever… but they’d avoid acknowledging that fact in public. Here, McCain (or his handlers… I doubt John knows HTML, himself) decided it’s prudent to inform voters that they’re building their hopes on shifting sands.
I’m no PoliSci major (I’m a college drop-out, actually) but even I can see this is not a winning political strategy.
