Live Blogging pt 2: My Mom Plays the Maverick Card and the Race Card
So my mom is calling McCain a maverick for like the 3007th time. I didn’t know he was a maverick! And I never knew he was a POW! Why doesn’t the campaign mention either of those two things? UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
My mom is totally playing the identity politics card (not that she knows what those three words mean individually or combined.) She’s showing that McCain has universal appeal by saying he’s supported by different groups of people: “Also, John McCain’s maverick position that he’s in, that’s really prompt up to and indicated by the supporters that he has. Look at Lieberman, and Giuliani, and Romney, and Lingle, and all of us who come from such a diverse background of — of policy and of partisanship, all coming together at this time, recognizing he is the man that we need to leave — lead in these next four years, because these are tumultuous times.” OK, Liberman, as we know is Jewish. Giuliani sounds like an Italian name. I think he’s that goon who made a total ass of himself by speaking like he was a character out of the Sopranos at the RNC. Lingle… who is that? Lingle, Lingle. Why does that name sound so familiar?
