My, my!! Things change in one day. It will only get worse for poor ol' John McCain. The media made this guy, and now they are out to destroy him.
Does this shake things up?
You have to again look at the primaries and the players. Nothing has changed, --- much.
Obama sweeps 3 states, Virgin Islands; By

I am going to steer clear of the democrats for now. Let's look at the other party.
Huckabee, the former Arkansas governor, got nearly 60 percent of the vote a few hours after telling conservatives in Washington, "I majored in miracles, and I still believe in them." He won all 36 delegates at stake.
Looking at the way the article was penned, you might tend to be impressed. DON'T BE.
Huckabee also won the Louisiana primary, but fell short of 50 percent, the threshold necessary to pocket the 20 delegates that were available. Instead, they will be awarded at a state convention next weekend.
Try not to be impressed. Look for the true meaning and forget the breathtaking air about it. It's more puff piece mass media crap.
For all his brave talk, Huckabee was hopelessly behind in the delegate race. McCain had 719, compared with 234 for Huckabee and 14 for Paul. It takes 1,191 to win the nomination at the national convention.
Don't despair because there is a lot more going on here with this. Shall I explain it?
First of all I mentioned a couple weeks ago that Huckabee is running for VP. That hasn't changed. Remember now there are 2 running for the vp slot -- Huckabee and the mass media. The media created McCain as well as Huckabee. Since the media installed their candidate, they're trying to install the vp slot as well.
They are in the process of skewering McCain as you will read in the next article, but they would like to get the Huckster installed. Why is that Eye? Is he that good? Absolutely not. He's almost as liberal as McCain. I choose to think of him as McCain without the temper. The reason they want him as the vp is quite simple. They can then skewer him along with McCain. They can point to the Huckster as a crazy Christian fanatic since he's a Baptist Minister. You will not be able to imagine the damage they will instill should Huckabee get the nod. This ticket will be made for disaster. They know the Broomlady and the Magic Negro will not have a cakewalk, especially the BroomRider. They will want to play the fictitious "separation of church and state card". They're going to have to. They need to cover the muslim roots of the Magician. He's now being portrayed as the second coming. Now it's the second coming of JFK. Later it will be the second coming of the Master.
This will be some kind of election. Stayed tuned, it will be far from dull.
Even though I disagree with the guy....
You will now see what the mass media is about. They are going to skewer the guy. I guess I will need to come to his defense. Not because of ideological reasons, but simply out of compassion. He will not even know what hit him, but believe it, the kitchen is going to get real hot.
The Democrats' Plan To Hit McCain; Feb 8, 2008; by Jeanne Cummings; CBSnews.com
The headline is partially misleading. It should really read "The Mass-Media Punditry" plan
to mule-skin McCain. That is exactly what is going to happen.
With John McCain poised to win the Republican nomination, Democrats are already gathering ammunition to use against him in the general election.
In more than a few instances, the best fodder has been provided by the candidate himself.
Trust me, this stuff has been gathered a year (or more) ago. They are now going to let this out by dribs and drabs until after the convention and then they will bombard us with it.
A case in point: As the economy was rising late last year as a major issue for voters, McCain in New Hampshire delivered this grenade, with its pin still in it: "The issue of economics is not something I've understood as well as I should," he said. "I've got Greenspan's book."
No mention of this by the media prior to Romney dropping out. Romney mentioned his lack of economic understanding, but the media quickly went to rescue him by playing McCain's famous quote that he was out fighting for freedom while Romney was in his office. All of that will change now.
On taxes, McCain's votes against President Bush's 2003 tax cuts and his explanation for them are likely to become major talking points. "I just thought it was too tilted to the wealthy and I still do," he said of those tax cuts. "I want to cut the taxes on the middle class."
I love this article. It says the dems are planning to hit McCain, but the media is pushing this story already right now. The hit has begun, there is absolutely no planning to it.
Then there are the matters of McCain's advanced age and his temperament.
If he wins the general election, he will be 72 years old when he takes the oath of office, the oldest of any president. He's also had three bouts with melanoma, a skin cancer.
Wow, I thought they would save that for later. Uh-uh. It's all on the table now. Skewering him before the convention is virtually unheard of until now. Get used to it. McCain is on the menu. Think he should change his name to McDonald. At least he could get a clown suit.
