E'08: Dear John

I haven't jotted about the Republican nominee (I think "presumptive" is the adjective of the media's choice here lately). Frankly, there's been nothing about him that has stirred the soul or rankled the feathers.

John McCain, where for art thou?

Do I comment on retired general Wesley Clark, who vied for the Democratic nomination four years ago, calling to question McCain's military service? I'll see your four-stars and raise you seven years in the Hanoi Hilton.
What's McCain been doing for the last three weeks?

Where's he been going? With whom has he chatted? Hello?

This bodes ill for the Republican. He doesn't seem to be worth covering. Media bias notwithstanding, you'd think he would misspell potato or something to at least get a camera turned his direction. iPodders are going to vote for whom they see, and we're not seeing Senator McCain.

Maybe this is the lull before the media storm.

Has anybody seen John?
