The Great Imploding Candidate

McCain did it again. He did exactly the wrong thing for his presidential campaign. During his speech I could hear, in the background, his handlers gnashing their teeth as they prepared their resignations and their resumes.

C-Span was preparing for tonight's all-nighter and filibuster. And McCain once again rode the president's coattails.
Errrm-- Doesn't the number 23% mean anything to you at all, Senator?

So, you plan to carry 23% [and falling] of the electorate to the Republican Party, come next year. I'm sure they'll thank you for that. They'll fall all over themselves giving you kudos and the nomination.

Suddenly, I'm reminded of the theories of the forces behind the slide of the Roman Empire. There are scientists who theorize that the lead pipes that carried water to the city brought about delusions and hallucinations among those who governed it.

What is the plumbing in your home made of, Mr. McCain?

McCain sold his soul to the decider long ago.. and remember McCain has strong connections to the mob.

McCain sold his worthless soul to Bush after Bush gutted him in the 2000 primaries.

Why would anyone want this blowhard!

The plumbing that supplies McCain has its outlet in Dubya's rear end.
