Lipstick on a Pig

Hello Lobolians

So in the midst of energy crises, wars against fear itself (which, after all, is the only thing there is to fear), invasions of Pakistan, a dispirted American public, and the most historic election in ages the best McCain can do against Obama is smear him for saying "if you put lipstick on a pig, its still a pig."

Hm.

Now, if McCain were truly talking straight about why he is upset, why wouldn't he simply say he was jealous that Obama took his line? Its what Obama did after all. McCain uses that line quite often. And Obama stole it. Bad Obama.

But no. McCain refrained from explaining his inner hurt and instead redirected that hurt into a slight against Sarah Palin. Don't do that McCain. If Obama truly offended you, come out in a town hall meeting and explain to the American public that you really like you "lipstick on a pig" slogan and you feel that him taking it from your mouth was a very childish and mean-spirited thing to do. Don't shoot yourself in the foot by throwing dirt all over your line and saying its Sexist. Its funny, not mean.

So McCain, please, grow up a little. You are supposed to be the adult in this campaign, not Obama.

Believe it or not, I actually agree with you. It's kind of discouraging to turn on the news and see that the latest breaking information from the election is...two grown adults bickering over semantics. Obama was stupid for saying it, McCain was stupider for jumping on it, the media was stupidest for making it such a big deal. For the record, though, I'm a solid McCain supporter.

well matt, at least we can agree that politicians need to grow up once in awhile.
