This Blog Will Not Tolerate John McCain's Blogola Scheme, Unless We Win Something
Regular readers of Indecision 2008 may have noticed that sometimes, once in a while, people use our comments section to post long-winded treatises about their favorite candidates. It's to be expected on political blogs, even those that are — like ours — sketchily informed and rarely serious, and written by a team of monkeys.
Nevertheless, these honest, heartfelt exchanges are part of the national conversation about the election, which is why I was horrified to read that John McCain's campaign is bribing people to copy and paste his talking points in blog comments without revealing why they're doing it.
As a blogger, I am offended. This scheme is tacky, shady and ridiculous. Even worse, Indecision 2008 isn't included on McCain's list of suggested blog targets!
What, we're not as important as something called "Hedgehog Report"?
Well, two can play this game: I urge you all to send indignant emails to the McCain campaign right now. Decry the blogola! And demand that Indecision 2008 be added to the blog target list, so we can decry the blogola some more! Do it!
Finally, I'd just like to say that John McCain has a comprehensive economic plan that will create millions of good American jobs, ensure our nation's energy security, get the government's budget and spending practices in order, and bring relief to American consumers. Furthermore, There are serious issues at stake in this election, and serious differences between the candidates. And we will argue about them, as we should. But it should remain an argument among friends; each of us struggling to hear our conscience, and heed its demands; each of us, despite our differences, united in our great cause, and respectful of the goodness in each other.
(What do I win, Senator McCain? What do I win? Is it a hovercraft?! Oh boy, I've always wanted a hovercraft!)

Hey Cubbychaser, I can't come up with a hovercraft, but how about a Red Ryder BB rifle?
You'll shoot your shin out kid.
THE OBAMA CAMP HAS BEEN RACE-BAITING FOR MONTHS!
HE WOULDN'T AGREE TO 10 TOWN HALL MEETINGS, SO "AMERICANS" CAN ASK THE QUESTIONS OF HIM AND McCAIN AT THE SAME TIME — BUT HE DID A DOG AND PONY SHOW OVERSEAS TO PEOPLE WHO CAN'T VOTE! WHAT IS HE HIDING? WILL WE KNOW BEFORE NOVEMBER? HOW MUCH MONEY HAS MIDDLE-EASTERN MUSLIM COUNTRIES CONTRITUTED TO THE OBAMA CAMPAIGN?
Where's the Barack Hussein Obama who shouted out: "I can't wait to debate John McCain anytime, anywhere!"??? Yeah — that one.
Why isn't his staff and his supporters, holding his feet to the fire on that alone?
Just three debates he's agreed to give — gives him plenty of latitude to bone up on what he doesn't know about this country, and all the issues we face.
Watch for wires and hidden devices to help him get through the debates.
His refusal to Townhall Meetings doesn't assure him the space he needs to twist and turn — hem and haw his answers — so he's playing it safe and just agreeing to the three that are mandatory before the GE.
I hope he realizes that just having the three debates will put more pressure on him to perform — spreading the debates out gives him a better chance of excelling in at least one of the Townhall Debates — three strikes and he's out if he sticks to only three debates.
He's painting himself into a corner again. He just doesn't know what is good for him — and his staff is also delusional — they set have him up for failure faster than Obama does on his own.
STOP THE DRAMA – NO OBAMA!
GET A BRAIN – VOTE McCAIN!
Oh wow, the irony: a right-wing blogger posts in a comment section on right-wing bloggers getting paid to blog. It's just the sort of comic relief I need in this election season.
Them McCain bloggers clan flat out rap. Bustin' rhymes left and right and they kick it freestyle yo. McCain's pro beat-box fer shnizzle.
Paying people to get behind his "talking points"; set up questions in his town hall meetings; denying his own statements. OH MY GOD-he's absorbed Dubya's soul! McCain has become the anti-christ!!!
HARKEN TO WHAT I SAY
JOHN MCCAIN SHOULD NOT BE PRESIDENT
1ST EXAMINE HIS JUDGEMENT. HE IS SAID TO HAVE ENCOURAGED GEORGIA TO ATTACK SOVEREIGN NATIONS AND MCCAIN PLEDGED AMERICAN SUPPORT
SEEMS TO ME MR MCCAIN IS FREE AN EASY WITH THE BLOOD OF OUR BRIGHTEST AND YOUNGEST.
WHAT HE WENT THOUGH AS A POW SHOULD NOT BE ENDURED BY ANY HUNMAN.
THE PROBLEM I HAVE IS THERE IS A CLEAR VIOLATION OF THE UCMJ. TO WHIT. A POW IS REQUIRED TO GIVE ONLY NAME, RANK AND SERIAL NUMBER.
A POW MAY MAKE NO STATEMENTS OR SIGN ANY DOCMENTS. PERIOD. AMEN
Sometimes I rather just see a bit on how cute Jon and Stephen are.
