McCain is Michael Scott of "The Office"
McCain, like Micheal, has no control over what he will do or say. When McCain and Obama do get a chance to debate we can be sure that McCain will do something outlandish to try and attract attention to himself (hasn't he done this thru-out the campaign thus far?). All I suggest is that when McCain has his Michael Scott moment during the debate that Obama turn and give one of those bemused, deadpan Jim Halpert looks directly to the camera.

(My apologies to those who don't watch "The Office" and have no idea what I'm talking about).

8. From Woot:
fаіl = I am an un-original person. Type in fail, and that's what shows up.

I like it.

2. except that Michael Scott is sometimes a sympathetic character.
I can have no sympathy for McFeely.

6. I know what you're talking about!
That's a perfect comparison. Just like Michael, McCain seems to be oblivious to how
dumb some of his grand plans are.

You can't compare McCain to anyone in the political world, because no one in the political
world has done anything so asinine.

This stuff happens all of the time in the corporate world.

What I find the most mind blowing--is that McCain announced to the world that he was
flying to DC to save Congress. However, you would think that he would have
discussed this with Congress, first .

Hello? If you're going to rescue someone, make sure they know you're coming, and make sure
they want to be rescued! McCain isn't even on the committees that are hashing out the
particulars.

It's just....NUTS.

7. We'll know for sure if the debates happen...
...and at least one of his responses is "that's what she said."
