It seems as though we hear of a new "Flip-Flop" just about every single day. Someone should point this out to all those irate Wisconsin Republicans who are desperate for McCain to get tough on Obama.

1. It just goes to show you who runs the themes in elections.

2. Funny You Mention Flip-Floppers
I was driving to work this morning and it occurred to me that we have hardly heard a word about flip-floppers this election cycle. Then I realized why: 1st; Obama is a man of conviction and only changes his point of view on any given topic when he realizes it's the right thing to do. 2nd; and most important McSame doesn't flip-flop because he wants both sides of every argument on every issue and uses whichever one suits him at the time, often during the same public appearance. Which frankly puzzles me to no end as to why anyone could possibly support ol' McGrumpy McAsshole.

3. That shit never applies to Republicans
Remember how Al Gore got blasted for "reinventing" himself with every debate? Ho ho, which Al is gonna show up tonight, the big phony.

Junior went against Kerry in 3 debates as the Surly Idiot, the Unhinged Ranter, and the Affable Boob... and nobody said squat.

7. Here's an example of IOKIYAR from 2004:
Why were Teresa Heinz Kerry's finances relevant in 2004 but Cindypills McCain's aren't in 2008?

5. Flip flopping only matters to the corpoRAT media if a Democrat does it.
Republicans can flip flop all they want.
