Back on the trail

I suspended my campaign for the day yesterday because I had a broken nail and no nail file. It was driving me nuts! But it's all fixed now so I'm back at it today. I'd like to express my gratitude to Senator McCain for not issuing a robo-call about my nail.

If I'd kept my campaign going yesterday, I maybe could have kept Tonya from looking at the news. She really needs to stop listening to Sarah Palin. Now Tonya thinks she's going to go into the Senate and let them know who's boss. She's never heard of this "Constitooshun" thing that Keith Olbermann ranted about.

Even worse, though, are the reports that the RNC has spent $150,000 on clothes and accessories for the Palin clan. If Tonya wants to spend $15, our campaign will have to take out a loan. A McCain spokeswoman had this to say: “The campaign does not comment on strategic decisions regarding how financial resources available to the campaign are spent." Strategic decisions? Like, a three inch heel will deliver a better economic message than a two inch heel?

The campaign later had this to say: "With all of the important issues facing the country right now, it’s remarkable that we’re spending time talking about pantsuits and blouses. It was always the intent that the clothing go to a charitable purpose after the campaign." Important issues facing the country...LIKE THE ECONOMIC CRISIS??? You know, I almost feel sorry for the McCain spokespeople. I don't care how good they are, they cannot spin this stuff. It's unspinnable.

Anyway...My Canadian friend posted a comment to the post on medical histories, suggesting that it's the mental health histories we should be concerned about. My response is this: "What's that supposed to mean? Are you questioning my mental health? You know darn well I'm under the care of a psychiatrist and take medication."

Oops. Did I say that out loud?

Your mental health history - as is Ms Harding's is well documented. So fair is fair - Lets see McCains and Palins!

As a Canadian I have a very direct interest in your election. As you are probably aware as I constantly remind you - overall Canadians are much more *liberal* leaning than you capitalist...I mean great neighbors to the south. And as a liberal thinking traditional Canadian I know I speak for many when I must ask you, Is Senator McCain related to the McCain French Fry?

Poutine is a very traditional distinctly Canadian dish - and I would hate to give it up for your tight assed right wing environmental nuclear bomb as President.

Please, don't make us give up Poutine!
