McCain Girls Not Helping McCain

Who knew? McCain has his own bevy of Obama Girls. Well, sort of. These girls aren’t exactly in the same hotness category as Obama Girl nor do they appear all that excited about their candidate. Nor can they sing. Not that looks or singing ability mean anything when it comes to supporting a presidential candidate.

The McCain Girls first did Raining McCain. Now they’re out with Here Comes McCain Again. The effort is the polar opposite of the Obama Girl effort. It makes the candidate looks as exciting as watching paint dry. Is this some sort of “uncool is the new cool” sort of thing?

Hmm. Maybe it’s actually an anti-McCain effort which is trying to make the man look so dull no one would ever consider voting for him. That would certainly make more sense. Plus it would be a savvy move by his opponents.

My adult son called last Sunday and talked for forty minutes about his promotion and his new house and his kids and then said “anyway how are you dad” with ninety seconds left in the call — and I said “I’m good” because what else do you say when you realize you’ve become the commercial break in your own child’s life
