1. He looks so peaceful..so alive

oh wait.. that's what people always say at funerals:rofl:

8. Reminds me of what people used to say

about Nancy Reagan back in the bad ol'Reagan years: 'I like Nancy Reagan, she's so lifelike'

[Mabus]

11. To make it more life-like..

they need to attach a microchip that has clips of Bush talking and a string to move McCain's lips while the clips are playing. Then even the most intrepid of the Washington political media wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

:evilgrin:

2. No wonder he can't find his way home

no pockets for all those keys

[Swede]

3. He's looking so well today,a little quiet,but he's got color in cheeks.

What? Oh nevermind.

4. It's a brilliant idea from the McCain Campaign.

The reporters are likely to get far more coherent, correct and lucid responses from the cardboard cutout... er... the one actually made of cardboard.

:)

5. to be honest, how could anyone tell the difference?

[Stinky The Clown]

6. I bet that airplane has developed a funny odor about it since they chartered it.

[radfringe]

7. took me a bit to realize

that it was a cut-out... hard to tell the difference, so life-like, right down to the "fold" where he bends over for his backers

[Mabus]

9. See what can happen when the signal drops in the middle of a conversation?

I think Karl Rove was telling McCain to "cut out" some stuff he's been doing with the press but McCain thought Rove said he should get a "McCain cut out" and show it to the press.

:rofl:

10. Which one's the cutout?

With people that white, you know, it's hard to tell.

[Connie_Corleone]

12. Are they sure that's a cutout?

[mitchum]

13. The cutout is taller than McCain's actual height
