Straight Talk Express Involved In Collision, Carries Obama Bumper Sticker (PICTURES)

Florida has not been treating John McCain's campaign vessel, the Straight Talk Express, very well in the past two days. Since Tuesday the bus has been involved in a collision with a minivan and was photographed carrying a bumper sticker for Barack Obama.
On Wednesday, the Express ran over a minivan, in a botched right turn. Car blog Jalopnik has photos.
Senator McCain was not in the vehicle at the time of the crash, but Senator Joe Lieberman was. Lieberman was on his way out of an interview with Florida news outlet Local 10.

On Tuesday, one day before the collision, the Express was seen carrying an "Obama '08" bumper sticker, as photographed by The New Argument. The source of the sticker is unknown.

See images of both incidents below:

Well, right now I really can't tell which i would side with, but i am leaning towards obama for some reason,why? Because the GOP base is not even warming up to mccain (of course, i could be wrong) and even though it's still early in the game, this just proves to show how we see our candidates to-date. i know i will get burned for this, but i think mccain is a warmonger. i get the impression that he doesn't care to what happens to our troops in the middle east and the other parts of the world. Furthermore, the Presidential campaign TV ads is getting a little nasty, if you happen to see the "McCain's New TV Ad on Obama's 'Celebrity' like Britney Spears and Paris Hilton and The Democratic TV Ad on McCain: Are We Better Off?" videos being clash in Well, sooner or later you knew it had to start! The media is begging for it and the people want to see some fight in their candidates. So here ya go...and I am sure this is only the beginning. So, if I'm going to ask this question, which one is more believable?

Was this a failed attempt by McCain to throw Lieberman under the bus?

Run, Joe- run like the wind!

A vote for McCain is a vote for JOSEPH STALIN. McCain is a very dangerous man who can push this country into a world war just to prove a point.

It says on Wed. McCain wasn't on the bus but Lieberman was.

McCain's VP choice?
Obvious to those who have an IQ over 50.

Too damn funny! The irony and symbolism is delicious.

I'm wondering if inadequate tire pressure reduced bus maneuverability.

It probably did. And why are they carrying Obama stickers around? Come out openly and declare support for Obama. I will respect you more, instead of sneaking around with his stickers. And what is with that little twit, Lieberman? Floridians should run him out of state.

Well, this would explain recent broad missteps in the McCain campaign. Considering how trying to brand Obama as the Anti-christ or an airheaded blond celebrity really back-fired and blew up in their faces, I really had to consider that Obama supporters had clandestinely infiltrated the McCain campaign and were directing his strategy.
