John McCain will be fundraising in the Twins Cities this evening, holding two events. More selfishly, his motorcade will be fucking with my evening commute.
Here is the article from today's Minneapolis Star Tribune:
WASHINGTON — Republican presidential candidate John McCain heads to Minneapolis and St. Paul today, basking in the glow of a rousing boost from President Bush. Last night, Bush touted McCain repeatedly at a gala party fundraiser in Washington.
McCain's Town Hall meeting in St. Paul today at the Landmark Center is an invitation-only event, and the fundraiser at the Hilton in Minneapolis is private. McCain is scheduled in Minneapolis at 5:30 p.m. and in St. Paul at 7 p.m.
Two things:
First, McCain is "basking in the glow" from the support of our ever-popular president, Mr. 28% himself. How is that distancing from Bush going, McCain?
Second, the Town Hall meeting is invitation-only, so tell me how that is not the same as private? Doesn't "Town Hall" have at least some connotation of being open to the public? Why does the MSM allow this mangling of the English language? What a sham!
