His snarky line on McCain and his so-called Maverick Modus Operandi.

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/27/opinion/27rich.html?ref=opinion

Last week found Mr. McCain visiting economically stricken and “forgotten” communities (forgotten by Republicans, that is) in what his campaign bills as the “It’s Time for Action Tour.” It kicked off in Selma, Ala., a predominantly black town where he confirmed his maverick image by drawing an almost exclusively white audience.

I love it when political figures, especially sanctimonious saps like McCain, step into shit and don't even realize where and what they put their wing-tipped foot in.

1. Great article. Thanks for posting

a snippet:

"Mr. McCain is not only burdened with the most despised president in his own 71-year lifetime, but he’s getting none of the seasoning that he, no less than the Democrats, needs to compete in the fall. Age is as much an issue as race and gender in this campaign..."

3. Jon Stewart had video of McCain's trip to Selma...

that was really hilarious. The combo in an ad would be very embarrassing.
