McLame is Superstitious and believes he will Jinx his chances if...
Edited on Thu Oct-09-08 07:53 AM by Heather MC
This Artical jumped out at me and this statement scares the out me
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/10/08/obama-mccain-transition-e_n_132976.html
"The Arizona Senator has instructed his team to not spend time on the transition effort, according to the source, both out of a desire to have complete focus on winning the election as well as a superstitious belief that the campaign shouldn't put the cart before the horse. "



My mother taught me that Superstition is the lowest form of intelligence.

This explains the Palin Pick, he was to scared to vet anyone before hand. This is crazy if you are running your campaign based on Superstition, you will run the country that way.



McCain believes he will Jinx himself if he prepares for winning, that's nuts

Prehaps this also explains why he is not in favor of diplomatic talks, I mean wouldn't want to Jinx a victory by trying "win" a war
dipshit

1. Actually, Obama also said he was superstitious during the debate
or a campaign speech a day or so back. He wouldn't say "When I am President..." but "If I am elected.."

2. He says "when I am President" now. He did several times during the debate
Look a healthy dose of caution is ok
but McLame is defying all logic by having this disorganized stance
Now Of course it's good news that he is not preparing for winning

but it certainly is a spotlight on the type of "leader" he is or isn't in this case
