The McCain and McKinnon Superstition

Really, when you think about it, this should disqualify McCain as president.

What, he not going to feel right because the sheets weren't tucked in properly?

May God help us all.


"McCain adviser McKinnon may pull lucky hat from ring

"In John McCain's remarkably superstitious campaign, where at crucial moments coins and weather and sides of the bed are all accounted for, there may be nothing that carries the talismanic power of media adviser Mark McKinnon's hat....

McKinnon met George W. Bush, who needed a media consultant for his 1998 gubernatorial reelection in Texas and a likely presidential run two years later. McKinnon, who said he saw Bush as a "progovernment Republican," fell quickly for the man, who he said "had real humanity about him, a real decency," and helped him win the presidency twice as his main media adviser....

I really don't know what to say to that, reader.

Torture, wars that have killed millions, the trashing of the country ... but a decent guy!

Having read Obama's first memoir, he was already drawn to the Illinois senator when they first met at a Washington dinner party in late 2006. "I think he has a history and hopefully a potential," said McKinnon. "That's what I like about him, that's what I liked about Bush."

And Obama is running on judgment, huh?

This guy sees the same thing that he saw in Bush.

Good God, I hope he is not as accurate as he was with Bush.
