From the NYT:
Senator John McCain on Wednesday injected another surprise into his presidential campaign, announcing that he would suspend campaigning on Thursday and seek a delay in this week’s planned debate so that he could return to Washington to try to forge a consensus on a financial bailout package.
Kudos to the McSame/MsBull…winkle campaign for their latest in “shiny-thing” gimmickry.
But of course, this is no substitute for substance!
How can this McSame/MsBull…winkle campaign subsist on nothing but “shiny-thing” gimmickry you ask?
When you’ve got nothing of substance that anyone wants, your campaign has become a mockery of late-nite talk shows and you’re falling off the cliff in the opinion polls, well then just trot out some more “shiny-thing” gimmickry.
As in this long, long line of “shiny-thing” gimmickry:
- A moose is loose Sarah MsBull…winkle
- We are all Georgians now.
- We should have had more regulation.
- The Surge has been successful.
- A chicken in every pot.
- A rabbit out of every hat.
McSame will play the very same role in leading us out of this financial ditch as he has done on all things economic during his entire career.
That will be nothing, nada, zilch! McSame, after all, knows nothing about economics. He’s said so himself, repeatedly and endlessly.
And what pray tell can we expect from McSame/MsBull…winkle campaign going forward?
Why more “shiny-thing” gimmickry, of course!
And it might just sell to the very same
Shorter Obama: “Political Statesmanship.”
Shorter McSame: “Political Stuntsmanship.”
