McCain Vows to Shake Up Govt Even If He Has to Travel All the Way to DC From His Office in DC
McCain Vows to Shake Up Government Even If He Has to Travel All the Way to Washington From His Office In Washington Satire by R J Shulman

WASHINGTON (PTSD News) 13 Sep 2008 This week, Senator John McCain has gone full steam ahead with his claims that he is the political outsider, the maverick that will shake up Washington with new and bold ideas. "I’m going to rid the government of the worst blood sucking lobbyists who do not have the interest of the American people in mind," McCain said. "Just as soon as these lobbyists, most of whom are on my staff, help get me elected."

"I know all about getting rid of corruption in government," McCain said, "because after being one of the Keating Five, I now have the judgment not to do that again. I know how to be a maverick and vote against your party when you have to, because that will be the complete opposite than voting with your party over 90% of the time, like I have. I know how to pick experience qualified people for my cabinet because that will be the opposite of what I did for my vice presidential pick." (Satire!)

3. Frame this in his lack of sound Judgement and Being Out of touch.
Anyone?

How about.

Through the Keating Five scandal John McCain learned to manipulate others through his office by doing as he wished then waxing contrition for his sins, becoming for the brief time a reformed smoker if you will but then slowly back sliding into old habits. Why else would so many Washington lobbyist be running his campaign ?

Build Doubt about them people!
