McCain's first VP gaffe
Today at noon, John McCain will be announcing his running mate. This is great timing on the heals of Obama's historic nomination. It's also a good location in the fact that he is doing this in a battleground state which is also my home state of Ohio. What's more, he is actually announcing this at my Alma Mater, Wright State University. Wright State is a good school, and when I was there 15+ years ago, they had just finished building the the basketball arena where he will be making the announcement. This is called the Ervin J. Nutter center. Now, when this was finally completed, we, the students, immediately began calling it "The Nuthouse" much to the Widow Nutter's chagrin. Of course "a nutter" is slang for someone who is insane. A great nickname for a basketball arena, but perhaps not the best place to debut your VP pick. That McCain camp must be crazy!

ReplyDeleteRandy. When it comes to politics, for the first time I'm doing my best to remain ignorant as long as I can. I have to agree that I'm ready for a change and love the history that Obama will likely make. I don't know if I will vote for him yet. I haven't watched the Rick Warren interviews or the nomination speech. I will watch them both thanks to DVR and YouTube...but I am staying ignorant for a little while longer. I've never voted for a dem for prez...this could be the year...we'll see.
