The McCain campaign is beyond Childish

[Thrill]

McCain's campaign disparaged Obama for backing off. "We understand it might be beneath a worldwide celebrity of Barack Obama's magnitude to appear at town hall meetings alongside John McCain and directly answer questions from the American people, but we hope he'll reconsider," spokesman Brian Rogers said.

1. Damn straight John - it would be beneath ANY of us to appear alongside you these days.

3. I get the feeling they are trying to taunt Obama into a fight which would show that McCain is leadin

[polichick]

4. Pretty soon they'll be calling out "nanny-nanny-boo-boo!" :)

5. They can't play off McCain's strengths so they go after Obama's "weaknesses"

And try and paint him negatively.

But the difference is they have to convince people Obama is something he's not.

All Obama has to say is McCain is running for the the third Bush term, and people buy it.

10. It's funny though that they view his "weakness"..

as being his ability to appeal to a lot of people, being able to speak to them in a way that they understand and appreciate and connect with them personally. Not really a weakness in a leader is it?

6. Obama should just pretend he doesn't even have an opponent..

he should just go out and do his thing, never even mention McCain's name. He's like a little toddler throwing a temper tantrum, he needs to be ignored.

[Rabrrrrrr]

9. ROFL! That would be super sweet!

"Opponent? I don't have an opponent. Not one that matters, anyway."

:rofl:

[Another Bill C.]

7. Bush's frat boys

are working for McCain now.

[polichick]

8. I could never stand frat boys - but these are even more infantile than usual!

11. Obama needs an ad where he's debating a mummy in a catacomb

complete with torches and petroglyphs on the walls.

12. It's beneath me!

I wouldn't use you as a toilet John McCain. Not after the last week. I wouldn't want your existence poisoning my waste. You're definitely beneath me.

13. McCain's campaign has a comic book flavor to it.
