Ben Stein is younger than John McCain.

Speechwriter for Nixon and Ford. Conservative economist. Lawyer. Actor. Game show host. Convincing spokesman for eye drops. Is there anything Ben Stein can’t do?
Well, for John McCain’s sake, it would be great if he could also wear the hat of Campaign Manager… as he was recently quoted as saying that McCain “is running the absolute most pathetic campaign I have ever seen in my whole life. His campaign is just heartbreakingly pathetic. He is a very impressive guy. He is a brave guy, but he is running the most lackluster campaign I have ever seen in my entire life. I would have thought Bob Dole’s campaign would have set a record for poor campaigns, but this one is even worse. I mean it is shocking.”
Wow.
UPDATE: Maybe McCain doesn’t really want to win and this whole “bad campaign” thing is part of a master plan to not inherit Bush’s record-breaking Federal deficit of $490 Billion.



He also appears to have started a new form of Holocaust Denial. He doesn’t deny the existence or the how of the Holocaust, but rather the Why is denied. He blames Darwin and science as much, if not more, than Hitler and pervasive centuries long European antisemitism. In other words, he’s a douche.

Oh yes, let’s bring in the desperation man - Karl Rove. He should be sitting in prison instead of working for Fox (the Republican network). Karl Rove is the most unethical, slimey, laww-breaking, lying, and do anything regardless of consequences, arrogant jerk ever to come out of Republican Party (well of course there is his boss Cheney). If McCain needs Rove it means the Republicans are going to run a very, very dirty and illegal campaign. It means violating campaign laws, money collection laws, and subverting the election process by causing problems at polls, keeping voters from voting in certain Obama areas, and doing everything possible to steal the election they know they are otherwise going to lose. If Rove joins the campaign, then we had all better be screaming for tight oversight of the McCain campaign. It will be dirty, nasty, and full of lies and illegal tactics. Send Rove to jail for snubbing the Congressional subpoena he got - not back into politics where he routinely breaks the law to get what he wants. Ben Stein - have you lost your mind?
Obama will be our next President regardless of who works on McCain’s campaign. No one can save McCain from himself. He is so out-of-touch it is painful to watch try to speak. Obama is leaving him in the dust so all McCain can do is attack Obama versus have any meaningful discussion of the issues. Is the best the Republicans have to offer? Boy, they are screwed when it comes to November in all Republican elected seats!
McCain is about to implode. As soon as any debate happens he will be done. He communicates as well as his buddy Bush - both morons and playboys who finished last in their class. What about character? McCain was having an affair with his current wife before he divorced his first wife. Is anyone going to bring that up since McCain thinks he can slander Obama - let’s go after McCain and all his past incidents of no character. He is too old and is beginning to sound like Reagan before they announced he had Alzheimers.
