John McCain to be On Larry King Live Wednesday Night...Is this what all the fuss is about?

[scheming daemons]

1. That's not "free advertising".... Obama has been on King too...

If that's what people are talking about, they're misguided.

[Thrill]

3. YES he is. Two Days on the Nightly News last week. MTP, and now Larry King.

They are masterfully getting the most out of free advertising

[MadBadger]

4. In terms of Larry King, thats just counterprogramming

he canceled on Larry over the Bounds-Campbell spat, and now is coming back.

[Thrill]

5. Conveniently on that night? Lets not be naive

[MadBadger]

6. Of course not, but CNN would be foolish to say no.

[wndycty]

7. Over reaction. . .

. . .everybody will be buzzing about the Obama special, as a matter of fact McCain will be responding to it. It sucks to have to respond to your opponent.

12. Just like when Obama did his appearance on O'Reilly.

Both sides have done it and would, frankly, have been dumb if they did not do it. Who cares though? Do you honestly think the number of viewers on CNN will actually counter the numbers Obama will carry?

[ellacott]

2. I think it is

[seabeyond]

8. he canceled on king a while ago. we didnt slam cnn for that supposed interview that didnt happen

he is making up like he did with letterman

[azmouse]

9. If it wasn't this it would be something else causing DU to wring its collective hands.

Some here are just looking for something to get upset about right now.

[Ninga]

10. It does not hurt to stay vilgent and keep watch. It is better to be wrong in a case like this

than to be right, and have not taken action.

[MadBadger]

13. How bout to wait for all the facts before we go ballistic?

One person says McCain gets free air time to respond, with no specifics whatsoever, and DU Goes batshit crazy

[Ninga]

14. With one week to go, batshit is not such a bad thing. Better than apathy. OK with you?

[MadBadger]

15. I'll go batshit crazy when its warranted, and right now it isnt.

[Ninga]

16. OK OK, you batshit police, drive me nuts. And you warranted determiators take

your job too seriously.

[Strawman]

11. Oh that's McCain? I thought Larry was having Art Linkletter on again.

[Raschel]

17. McCain and Larry King? Wow, what electricity!

How will anyone be able to tell it's live?

[Strawman]

19. Live from the Crypt it's the Larry King Halloween Special wsg John McCain!

[Alter Ego]

18. Having to respond to your opponent on Larry King Live--when most

of your strongest demographic (seniors) will be asleep is a wasted move. If this is what we were all pissing ourselves over, then I can safely say I feel stupid.
