Maverick McCain Admits Defeat
Posted in: Politics
It was only a matter of time before presidential (ex)candidate John McCain threw in the towel. After the buzz of his campaign spark Sarah Palin was extinguished, the truth was exposed for all to see: John McCain is an extension of George Bush that very few want to see as our next President of the United States. During a speech in Minnesota, ‘my friend’ John McCain was pummeled with a chorus of boo’s after doing all but conceding to Democratic candidate Barack Obama.
After McCain proclaimed that Barack Obama is a “decent person and a person that you do not have to be scared of as president of the United States.”, fingers were pointed and a Benedict Arnold label was instantly attached to John McCain’s wrinkled forehead. According to the AP, McCain responded to taunts from his own republican crowd by stating that “If you want a fight, we will fight…But we will be respectful. I admire Sen. Obama and his accomplishments.” When people proceeded to boo, McCain put an abrupt halt to it. He did so by taking out his dentures and making a spooky goblin face. I lied about that last part, but I think that if he had done that, those sad ones in the crowd would have turned their frowns upside down!
Of course during one point, the Muslim extremist card was thrown out by ignorant American #6723459675235. “I don’t trust Obama,” the woman said. “I have read about him. He’s an Arab.” Finally, McCain decided to do what was right and he shook his head in disagreement while saying “No, ma’am. He’s a decent, family man, a citizen that I just happen to have disagreements with (him) on fundamental issues and that’s what this campaign is all about.”
I’m not sure whether the falling poll numbers have diminished McCain’s maverick-ness, or whether he’s pissed off that he can’t beat a person that half of the country thinks is Osama Bin Laden, but it seems as if McCain is ready to lay back and take his loss like a mavericky gentleman. Barring a huge vote counting discrepancy, it looks like McCain has come to the conclusion that most of the American public has: Senator Barack Obama is going to be elected the next President of the United States.
