I see John McCain was a big hit at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. Good for him. I happened to find myself in the middle of that event last year and spent a good deal of it feeling like I'd stepped into the Satan's Helpers bar from Pee Wee's Big Adventure.
I say we stomp him, then we
tattoo him, and then we hang him and then we kill him!
Yeah!
Not that I had a bad time. I didn't. It was the craziest I
ever saw a Best Western lobby get. But I wasn't interrupting the
festivities. Apparently, Sen. Thune warned McCain this might be a
hostile audience, but they seemed to love the Republican
nominee--without him even having to do the Tequila dance.
Just don't hire them for inaugural security, Johnny Mac.
