Should we start calling him ‘MisStep McCain’? Perhaps we all are getting too accustomed to his fumbles. This article details 10 of them (with lots of links and videos) made just this week alone. Why have we barely heard of them if at all? Since detailing policy is too daunting for mainstream media sound bites, shouldn’t the press be at least focusing on if this guy is Presidential material?

The Week That Should Have Ended McCain’s Presidential Hopes

This is the week that should have effectively ended John McCain’s efforts to become the next president of the United States. But you wouldn’t know it if you watched any of the mainstream media outlets or followed political reporting in the major newspapers.

During this past week: McCain called the most important entitlement program in the U.S. a disgrace, his top economic adviser called the American people whiners, McCain released an economic plan that no one thought was serious, he flip flopped on Iraq, joked about the deaths of Iranian citizens, and denied making comments that he clearly made — TWICE. All this and it is not even Friday! Yet watching and reading the mainstream press you would think McCain was having a pretty decent political week, I mean at least Jesse Jackson didn’t say anything about him.

There was an article a while ago that seemed too loony at the time that the Repub leaders plan on not nominating McCain at the convention if it seemed that Obama was too far in front. Replace him with someone who could win. Could this plan be real and McCain is helping it?

As if American politics needs to get any weirder than usual.
