Insane McCain calls going on The Daily Show "a dangerous experience."
McCain: The Daily Show Is A "Dangerous Experience"
Think Progress | January 14, 2008 06:12 PM

t an event this morning in Michigan, John McCain joked that going on Jon Stewart's Daily Show is "dangerous experience":

"I also want to assure you that from my encounters with young Americans in the military and Google and colleges, universities, high schools, even -- I even went on MTV Town Hall -- interesting experience. Going on Jon Stewart: That's a dangerous experience. Letterman, Leno -- I try to reach out to young people. And every time I'm around a group of young Americans, I am enthusiastic and my faith is restored."

1. McCain thinks of Letterman and Leno as young people?
Way to have your finger on the pulse of youth culture, Johno.

3. Reminds Me of a Joke from Prarie Home Companion
About the comedian doing stand-up in St. Paul, trying his hardest, using the best, everything he's got, but the audience sits there, stone-faced.

And as he's getting paid, the club owner says: "The audience loved your stuff. Everyone said it was really hard to keep from laughing."


Anyway, Garrison tells it much better....

4. McCain is going to be SO much fun to beat

because he has all of Bush Junior AND Reagan's worst qualities!

Here's why McCain thinks TDS is dangerous. And this is what some of us said about it.

7. I think he means "at" Google.
Lots of the candidates have made appearances at Google's HQ to speak and answer questions. It has become one of the hot candidate stops in Silicon Valley.
