Thread: McCains next gimmick

So what is Mccains next gimmick going to be? Trailing poorly in the polls his campaign obviously said we have to do something. What does he do? He selects a woman as a running mate in hopes females in this country, Hillary supporters, are gullible enough to ignore what they believe in and vote for him. It works for a short while until the idea of Palin actually sitting in the Oval office sinks in. Once again the polls begin to paint an ugly picture for him.

So then what does he do? He uses the recent economic crisis to “suspend his campaign” and claim to America he has to go back to work. Maybe the country will all think, Heh, that’s the kind of guy we need! Well this one did not work so well. It’s pretty obvious in this day and age they should both be able to walk and chew gum at the same time and the campaign itself is pretty important to the country, not something you simply “suspend”. This also not to mention it has to be difficult if not impossible for those meeting in Washington to sit around the table and mitigate this crisis with the two friggin candidates up for election in a month sitting there! Once again the polls do not respond.

So what’s the next step? From what I saw in the debate, it appeared McCain was trying to paint a picture to the country that he was wasting his time debating Obama. Like, it’s obvious everybody ought to vote for me because I’ve got all the experience and this guy doesn’t “understand”. Well, it was obvious that Obama does understand and the condescending old and experienced shit did not fly. The SOB stood there and never so much as looked at Obama and every time Obama made a point he disregarded it without merit, except they all had it.

Now what is he to do? God only knows but you can bet there is going to be something. His poll numbers are dropping and it’s beginning to look like they will be double digit inside of a week. His campaign managers are bound to tell him he has to do something to turn the tide or he will lose. Maybe dump this Palin chick and call on Romney? Say I need an economic wizard and paint him as one?

What do you think he will do next?

Probably try to reclaim the independent label by saying that if elected, Joe Lieberman will be his Secretary of State.

There ya go, thats worth a shot. Probably a really piss poor pick for secretary of state but heh, what the hell, may get him the jewish vote. Who gives a shit if he do the job or not, it's about votes!

And Jesse the Body Ventura will be his Attorney General, to reassure America he hasn't let the egg-heads intimidate him over Palin.

I figure he will give head in public to get the gay vote.
