Ok creative people, care to help me stick it to McCain?
Submitted by persondem on Sat, 06/14/2008 - 3:21pm
So who is feeling creative? I would ike to have signs printed sometime in the coming couple of months that would hopefully enhance McCain's negatives. They wouild be stark, like newsprint, black and white. The wording would need to be brief and easily understandable like:
"Make it a 100 years [in Iraq]."
John McCain
"... economics is not something I've understood ..."
McCain on McCain
"... it'll be one of the best things that's happened to America ..." - McCain on Iraq, 2003
John Flipper McCain
Soc. Sec. Privatization - then Yes, now No
Lobbyists - then Bad, now Good.
Tax cuts for the Rich - then Bad, now Good
(might be too much)
Short, swwet, accurate and damaging are the desired traits. Any ideas? And would anyone care to have 10-12 such signs to spread around your county?
Thanks,
Mike

McCain = Bush with a bad temper
Do good. Be nice. Have fun.
You are welcome to use the new improved McCane logo
if you would like.

Thank you. I really like the logo.
In Person Count the electorate is generally a bit older. I wouldn't want to rub them the wrong way. Has that logo been vetted in any way?

Don't think so
however, a friend who is 85 years old cracked me up when she told me the only thing John McCain would be doing at 3:00 in the morning is getting up to go to the bathroom.
McCain is at a tough age - he is old, but he isn't old. In my family folks don't age until they're in their late 80s. He's 71. He's at an age where it might not be a factor now, but it could be during his time in office. If he can handle the rigors of a campaign schedule, I imagine he can handle four years in office. Eight might be a stretch. I know that I couldn't handle it. I don't see how any of them do it.

Not sure what you mean by vetted.
I thought it up and photo-shopped it myself, but yeah, I think it might be offensive to some.

By vetted I just meant tested out by various demographic
various demographic groups to get their reactions. I didn't realize that you created it on your own (excellent creativity, btw). You might want to have some bumperstickers made up. Could make some $$ and make a good political point as well.

Thanks, that's a good idea.

Maybe it's just me, but
if the people who keep whining about Obama's "character" based on his having been close to Wright are in earnest, surely they are offended by a man who calls his wife a cunt in front of other people. Granted, it's not a nice thing to say in private, but it's especially shocking that he'd say it in front of witnesses.
This isn't exactly the kind of issue I pay attention to when I'm deliberating over candidates, but it seems to have been the kind of issue the GOP has focused on when it suits their agenda.
So, again, I think his temper could do him in.

Agreed.
His temper and the fact that he abandoned his first wife when she became disabled. Republicans seem to have a history of that.

when did McCane call wife a cunt?
jus curious
McCain's language issue
It was apparently a while back, but it was in front of staffers, one of whom put it in a book published a few months ago. It got lots of buzz on places like Huffington Post pretty soon after the book came out, but the "issue" has been resurrected recently and will probably continue to bubble. He was asked about it at a "town hall meeting" type venue not long after the story broke, and received applause from the audience by refusing to "dignify" the question with a response. That was probably a smart answer, but I'm not sure the question will go away that easily.

Without getting it on video, it probably won't have much effect

sorry
should have just used the google before asking:
Dayyyyyum...as Betsy might say
Back in 1992, I would have let Cindy
snatch every hair out of my head, and maybe let her pull an ear off to boot if she wanted. Heck, I'd probably still let her do it, if she caught me in the right mood. Okay, she'd have to be really unlucky to not catch me in the right mood, since I pretty much have a one-track mind, and...you know what? I think I better quit while I'm behind here. ;/
You took the word right outta my mouth
I guess I haven't been paying much attention to John McCain. I hadn't heard that quote.

These are hilarious. You've got to make 'em into bumperstickers.

Gift?
Keep in mind I posted those at 5am. I have a drinking problem.
Well pass that stuff around
but yes, those really and truly ought to be bumperstickers. SO DO 'EM and then make 'em available to BlueNCers (and BruNCer).
Please.

you have inspired me...
...to create almost 50 potential signs--so many, in fact, that i have a story up with them all.
here's a couple...
