ROFL !!! - McCain Spokesman: Obama Hasn't Visited Mexico City !!!
<snip>

Following Obama's trip abroad, it looked like the McCain campaign had lost a key talking point about Obama's failure to visit Iraq and Afghanistan recently enough.

But have no fear. Here's McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds on CNN today:

In fact, {Obama's} never met with President Uribe in Colombia, as John McCain has. He has still yet to take a trip to Mexico City to have those meetings there and his relationship with Canada, I think, took a turbulent roll through the primaries. So I think actually if you're to look at the experience of both candidates, that there are very telling differences.


These meetings that Barack Obama had taken throughout the week were a lot of meetings that John McCain was making for the fifth, sixth or seventh time in many cases, and these were his first meetings. So to compare them on the substance, we think, is really incomparable.

1. "but to do so", he continued, "would make him appear cocky, as if he were already elected."

2. Obama should go and just bury McCain's campaign.

These people are stupid.

But first, let him rest up for a week and engage in some talk about the economy.

3. haha, I was just posting this. It's getting very surreal.
The McCain campaign better be careful what they wish for...next thing you know, Obama could embark on another part of his tour and get the Mexico/Canada/Colombia bump!

10. Yup.
I've thought all along that this will be exactly where the McCaint campaign ends up. Two weeks may be too early, but not by much.

Any bets on when Crazy Preacher will rear its ugly head?

13. Right before the convention
The crazy preacher ads will appear in 527s.

He has his dirtiest material prepared for that week so the media talks and debates about his shit throwing and he'll say I can't control the 527s.

I seriously would not be surprised to see people in Black face at the GOP convention this year.

14. McCain campaign = Travel advisors
Not meant as a slam to anyone working in the travel business, but this is ridiculous. Or as my husband says, "Obama doesn't need the GOP to tell him where to go!" :rofl:

15. Maybe President Calderón and PM Harper will join Obama in
Chicago for a northern hemisphere conference instead.














Or would that be rushing things?

20. After shooting 35/37, with 12 three-pointers in a row, most players had the good sense...
To stop goading Jordan.


(The stats were made up, but illustratively close to something real.)

24. what a pathetic show of weakness. how frail must the u.s. be to cower in fear of mexico?
really, i'm all for great relations with every country, but it's 2nd class countries that feel it's a national imperative that their leader have appropriate, solid relations with their larger, neighboring state, by it sponsor, ally, or enemy.

republicans at least used to prance around like other countries are the ones who need good relations with US.

The points he makes are foolish and he does no good for his candidate.
