Fun with Politics (12)

Loyal McCain supporters in Cincinnati, Ohio, invited Bill Cunningham because “they thought he could help”.

Help with what? Getting press coverage? They were right about that; still, this was sort of like inviting Jeffrey Dahmer to work the nightshift at the local mortuary. (Look it up)

 

Cunningham seems like fun; I wonder if he does birthday parties and Bar Mitzvahs?

Is he sitting at home as we speak, hoping that Bill O’Reilly saw him on television; wondering if O’Reilly will finally reply to his emails? 

 

On another note: according to the Clinton campaign, it’s all the media’s fault.  Sure it is. Let’s ignore for a second that there is no such thing as one single-minded unified media, and look at what all this complaining gets us. A fantastic candidate, that should appear strong and determined, comes off instead as a whiny kindergartner, pointing fingers in all the wrong directions. Another candidate, who is supposed to defend himself against the accusation that he is a press favorite; if he is indeed the favorite of a majority of journalists, how do you think he got there?

I’ve said it before; this is not the playground, it’s politics.

I would like to be able to tell the difference.

 

Maybe what the Clinton campaign should acknowledge is that change is already happening. It doesn’t come from the press, and it doesn’t come from the candidates; this time it’s coming from the ones that really matter: the voters.  And that’s no joke.
