McCain said the 'me first country second crowd' should be aware that change is coming, and now he's praising Palin again. Um, dude, you're at the top of the ticket.
... "I understand who I work for. I don't work a party, I don't work for a special interest, I don't work for myself, I work for you." Good line.
... "I'd rather lose an election than see my country lose a war." And now he's praising Petraeus.
... As he talks about people who are struggling it sounds different than his discussion of the surge and war. He clearly doesn't care about this stuff.
... "We lost the trust of the American people when some Republicans gave in to the temptation of corruption... we lost their trust." He goes after Obama passing a corporate welfare bill for oil companies.
... A culture of life. "Personal responsibility. The rule of law and judges who dispense justice impartially and don't legislate from the bench."
MAVERICK!
... I will keep taxes low, my opponent will raise them. Spending, trade, health care - Obama will eat your BABIES!!!
... Is he really going to go after unemployment insurance? Yes, he is.
... Best line from Ben Coffey Clark tweet: "This crowd response is lamer than a naughty be nature reunion tour trying to get crowd to scream heeeey. Hoooooo in rhythmn".
... He's going on about failing schools. Boring. Bring back Palin!
... Let's fire teachers! Yeah! Bomb those failing schools! That's mavericky.
... Obama wants schools that EAT YOUR BABIES, McCain wants schools that bomb the enemy.
... We'll drill those wells offshore and we'll drill them NOW!
... Browser froze. Grrr. Lots of stuff about Al Qaeda, Russia, Georgia, tough talk on the Russians trying to reassemble their empire. Now he's talking about Vietnam.
"I hate war, it's terrible beyond imagination."
... "In America we change things that need changing." Really? "Americans like things that are likeable."
He's now talking about needing to bring American institutions into a global economy, and railing against partisanship as a symptom of people who go to Washington to work for themselves and "not you."
... I'll reach across the aisle to get things done, my Democratic opponent won't!
... "I won't care who gets the credit."
... "I was blessed by misfortune." "I witnessed a thousand acts of compassion and courage and love."
... BREAKING: McCain was a prisoner of war!
