John McCain has frequently been criticized for his dull, frequently boring public appearances. Whether it's his advanced age, or simply the fact he really is a tired, elderly, boring man with a bad comb-over, his campaign speeches before the usual 20-30 supporters in attendance don't do much to rally enthusiasm among the voters. One of his latest speeches was actually so dull it was the topic of the political pundits on Fox News. Usually Fox News would gush over anything a Republican says or does, but that night they never got around to what John McCain had to say, they were just too stunned by how truly boring he is.
The situation will only worsen as Americans hold him in contrast to Barack Obama. The Democrat's presidential nominee is one of the greatest orators of his time. He attracts crowds, sometimes numbering up to 75,000, and has them on their feet applauding and cheering. It's quite a contrast from John McCain's snooze-a-ramas.

Republican Party leaders have legitimate concern about this issue as they prepare for their national convention. A political convention is supposed to be a great rallying platform to energize members of their party, not have them nodding off. Recognizing they have little chance to remake John McCain into a charismatic speaker with a bad comb-over, they've been grappling with how to create any level of excitement to what promises to be one of the most boring televised events in history.

Since the candidate can't generate any excitement or enthusiasm, they've decided to import it. The Republicans have hired a warm-up act for John McCain.

This election the Republicans are campaigning on their All War - All The Time platform. They want to continue the Iraq war for 100+ years. They want to start a new war with Iran. They intend to eventually get around to the Afghanistan war, which Bush is also losing. It's All War - All The Time. So they found the perfect warm-up act to match with that platform.

Prior introducing John McCain for his acceptance speech, the Republican delegates and national television audience will first hear an invocation from McCain's new spiritual advisor, Rev. Charles . Then the Republican delegates will be treated to a rare appearance of the high energy rock band, The Leningrad Cowboys. It will be a perfect match to go with their All War - All The Time theme since the band will actually have the Russian Red Army Chorus appearing with them as back-up singers. This is the real Russian Red Army. It's a perfect fit.

Here we see The Leningrad Cowboys and Russian Red Army Chorus in concert performing the song that will be John McCain's opening act. Republican strategists hope they will be able to persuade John McCain to actually come on stage with the band and join them in a few versus of this rock and roll classic.
Feel free to share this with any other Republicans you think might enjoy a glimmer of hope for their struggling candidate.

Which further solidifies the notion that democrats don't care about "substance," they care about "style."

Obama can have the I.Q. of a toad, but as long as he enters an auditorium like Rocky Balboa, with all the lights, and confetti, and flash, they'll love him for it.

Very few Obamunists know what he's for, but hey!...as long as he LOOKS good!

He's the Duke of New York! A-Number One!!!! Yay!!!

Please, stop with the rambling, aimless diatribes. At the very least we can say that McCain's speeches have substance. Obama merely repeats the phrases Hope and Change to turn a bunch of college students into weeping prepubescent girls at a Backstreet Boys concert. So take your rants elsewhere, they are beginning to bore me.

Like we were pretending for a moment that Americans generally preferred some logical policies to populist platforms.

Face the fact that all Obama has is hyped up emotional support and populist pandering to run on.

Hmmmmmmmm, what will voters care more about??

You spoke almost like having a lot of people support you made you smart, intelligent, or good for the country.

Not quite. The only support he has, is for the ignorant dregs who can't decipher his policies of nothingness, and those who fall for those biased subjective polls that y'all took for granted (you know...the ones y'all fell for, back in 2004?).

You neo-socialists are going to be in for a surprise in November, when those polls and media talking puppets get shown the truth.
