Word From GeeBee.

Being the last week of the fantastical everlasting election, there is little time left for being a smart-ass on the subject. This may actually be an insight (everything here is an insight into SOMETHING). I put forth the observation that John McCain doesn't want to win the election. He has figured out at some point that he is better off out 'o the White House than in it. At the very least he could've tried harder - and possibly even sabotaged his own campaign with a series of stupid decisions. If you really want to win, do you let your advisors talk you out of the running mate you really believe in, and agree instead to choose a complete disaster? When a national emergency pops up, do you act all crazy and cancel your campaign to join a bunch of your old cronies who actually don't like you very much and contribute nothing, while your opponent drops in to offer smart input and keeps his schedule the next day? Do you call total strangers "my friend" every two seconds like a creepy insurance salesman? Then when you are completely out of ideas, you rename your campaign after a guy named Joe? And remind everyone in the country that they might need to call a plumber someday? How inspiring is that?? These are the actions of a man who just wants to get the hell out of town and kick back with some of that beer money. Maybe even look back and laugh at how silly the whole debacle was. Good luck on Tuesday John McCain - you've earned it.
