McCain Heads To Europe

Political Wire:

After Tuesday's primary results, which ended the race for the Republican nomination and prolonged that for the Democratic nod, the three remaining campaigns must re-examine their strategies....

...Immediately following his New Hampshire trek, McCain will head overseas on a 10-day congressional delegation trip to Europe and the Middle East that will coincide with the Senate's spring recess.

After returning on Easter Sunday -- March 23 -- McCain will deliver a major speech that week detailing his observations from the trip.

This guy McCain is freakin scary. "My friends" it sounds like a judge just before he lays out the sentence.

"...Immedi­ately following his New Hampshire trek, McCain will head overseas on a 10-day congressional delegation trip to Europe and the Middle East that will coincide with the Senate's spring recess..."

McCain's record no-show status in the Senate, yet he still goes on the Senate Spring Break junket

"(Reuters) - Barack Obama's presidential candidacy is winning over hearts and minds in Europe, where his race, youth and promise of change are raising hopes for an America the world can like again."

Oh don't send him to Europe! We have enough of our sh!t to fight already ;-)

[KeysDan]

I hope he has scheduled a meeting with the history department at the Sorbonne to discuss the devastation of the 100-year war, including how it depleted the country's treasury and hobbled the lives of the population--that is, those that survived.

You wanted to say 116-year war.

John, the Bush Dollar, (.47 cents) won't buy you a spot at the urinal. Take a bag with you.

[Ginzaman]

And of course he'll stay FAR away from those not-so-secret CIA torture prisons that he thinks are now in again.

The Dems fight it out and he'll act all presidential. Did you see his press conference today? I'm still holding to the view that McCain is going to screw up. He's going to start getting all comfortable as "practicing/acting commander- in- chief" and then boom! He's going to have to go back into candidate mode and he'll wind up saying something, or losing his temper, etc. And where is Vicki anyway?

[lornejl]

Great comment.

[mostimpressive]

Is he taking responsibility and voluntarily checking into the Hague?

[stupidme]

Uhmmm ... where's vicki?

That photograph is the best the AP could do? Lame. I could do better than that with my cell phone camera.

[gblair]

He looks like he's having a heart attack. Wonder who he's gonna pick for a running mate.

[emerywood]

The guy may be very experienced and his judgment may be very good, but I wouldn't call him up 3 o'clock in the morning, even if the world is burning, for he is known to have a temper !

[Pepper14]

Are you saying you don't have a temper? By your remark you sound like a child throwing a temper tantrum. Nobody has a temper any worse than Hillary and Bill Clinton.

[RedRooster]

I hope Nurse Ratched remembers to pack his anti-psychotic meds.

[Macready]

let the circus begin . . . doubt he will have very positive press coverage . . . . especially since he is the chimp's anointed successor . . .
