1. WTF

why is Cindy McCain there????

[goodgd_yall]

3. He keeps her on a short lead, doesn't he? n/t

[tomg]

9. Or maybe the other way around. nt

[goodgd_yall]

19. yep n/t

[Hutzpa]

26. She sure is playing that role

of a trophy wife with pleasure.

[Born_A_Truman]

4. McCain can't be left alone?

[goodgd_yall]

8. Which is it

He can't or she can't.

[Muttocracy]

2. thank you! you're a gem for keeping us notified of these. nt

[Muttocracy]

5. why is Cindy there and not Michelle :-(

[WinkyDink]

7. Why didn't Mrs. McCain let her candidate husband attend solo?

[Shine]

6. I was noticing how McCain wasn't wearing a lapel pin, but he was just given one.

Now they all have one.

10. That smile and hug is going to make for a beautiful photo

[jenmito]

11. I don't know why people say Obama doesn't seem to connect. He touches people, patting them

on the back and smiling, looking them in the eye, etc.

[goodgd_yall]

17. I think they mean

in interviews, speeches, how he discusses issues.

[jenmito]

22. But they always say things like, "He's too cool for school," "Faculty lounge," "no Bill Clinton,"

and "unable to feel their pain."

[goodgd_yall]

38. Well

they have their heads up their asses. Anybody who pays attention can see the man has empathy.

[Shine]

12. Now O's telling McSame: I'm gonna kick you ass.

kidding. :rofl:

[goodgd_yall]

13. McCain and Obama were walking together for a spell

I wonder if they said anything to each other. Then Cindy caught up and got in between them.

[Shine]

15. see my post above.

:evilgrin:

[goodgd_yall]

20. Cindy heard it

and trotted up to protect hubby. :-)

[Shine]

14. Who's that other guy that's with them?

:shrug: sorry, I'm clueless.

[Muttocracy]

16. Mayor Bloomberg I think. nt

[Jersey Devil]

23. yes, definitely Bloomberg (nt)

[Hutzpa]

18. McCain is out of breath

walking back up..:rofl:

[blondeatlast]

21. Look at Obama engaging the crowd and McCain off far away from them. nt

[jenmito]

30. Looks like he IS still popular...despite the "moose shooter."

:D

[Muttocracy]

34. Seemed like one crowd member had a particularly long talk with Obama - got Reggie to give him

contact info.

[Shine]

24. Wow, O's personal touch is really impressive

he connects with people.

[blondeatlast]

29. And McSame isolates himself away from them. Speaks volumes about their interest. nt

[Shine]

33. Yup, just goin' through the motions....

:eyes:

[Shiver]

35. To be fair...

McCain was talking with some people before they panned over to our guy. I heard one person in the crowd saying "God bless you," to McNugget... maybe he sneezed?


~Shiver

[blondeatlast]

40. Yeah, but I can be as unfair to him as I want on DU; not to mention being a very unhappy

McCain constituent. ;)

[Shiver]

41. Oooo...

I'm sorry to hear that... need a hug?


~Shiver

[BeyondGeography]

25. Someone's taking the time to talk to people

I love our guy. Fucking love him.

[Muttocracy]

27. I swear I heard McCain say, we'll shake a few hands and then we're out of here. nt

[writes3000]

37. That's exactly what he did say. I heard it too. nt

[flamingdem]

28. McCain looks awkward and tired nt

[Shine]

31. What a gracious man.

It's appropriate to take time off from the politickin' today.

[Shiver]

32. Did it really matter what they just said to each other?

They could have exchanged chili con carne recipes for all I care... that ain't what this is about. Stupid media speculation, trying to ruin this....

[alsame]

36. I wonder how they kept Rudy away. He must be chained to a

wall somewhere.

[yellowdogintexas]

39. hahahahaha

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
