Obama's Global Victory Lap Has McCain Desperate

What was John McCain thinking?

Did the Republican who would be president really think that by goading Democrat Barack Obama into visiting Afghanistan and Iraq -- countries the senator from Illinois was going to have to visit as part of an image-building international tour -- he would somehow trip-up his November rival?

Was McCain under some delusion that international leaders would subtly undermine the Obama tour and thus confirm that the Republican ally of discredited lame-duck President George Bush was the only real choice to lead the United States toward a more realistic role in the world?

If that was the case, then McCain really is too foolish to be president -- not merely of the U.S. but of his stamp club.:rofl:

As Obama goes from strength to strength -- sinking baskets, drawing cheers from the troops, forging a plan to extract most U.S. forces from Iraq that everyone who matters seems to agree with -- McCain is scrambling.

But Obama in warm-up mode runs circles around McLame at full throttle.

The victory lap comes later. I am awaiting Obama's standing ovation at the UN.

And that standing 'o' at the UN sounds great, or the inauguration, or his first SOTU...:thumbsup:

As POTUS.

stamps to cuddle with.

cycle but Americans would still be anxious to know what Obama and whatever country he's in are up to:)


"Still, July is turning into a miserable month for McCain. And misery loves company."

You can bet those around mccain are as miserable as he is.

I like that :D
