Given the week he's just had, you have to figure John McCain is looking for a story -- any story -- to come along and take the media spotlight off him (at least until the next well-polished lobbyist shoe falls). And what better distraction than America's favorite celebrity engorge-athon, the Academy Awards? But a quick glance at my Oscar scorecard tells me this year's Best Picture noms have McCain reminders written all over them: There Will Be Blood (aka McCain's foreign policy), Atonement (see recent conversations with wife Cindy), Michael Clayton (McCain could certainly use a "fixer" right about now), No Country for Old Men (hello November preview!). Not sure where Juno fits in, unless someone has recently spotted Vicki Iseman guzzling SunnyD at a convenience store.
