Media Darling McCain
A lot of consternation today regarding the continuing "celebrity" attacks going on against Obama. Not sure why this isn't more self-evident, but my take on how to respond is by fighting fire with fire. Obama is the elitist celeb, huh? Well if McCain is angry about that, it is only because McCain is getting his milkshake drank on this. He's been a Media Darling all his life. How many appearances on SNL? No one has been on the Daily Show more than he has. And I bet the Meet the Press numbers are very high too - it seemed he was on every other week in 2006-2007.
McCain is the original Media Darling. Everytime "Celebrity" comes out of <i>their</i> mouths, "Media Darling" should be the response. You fight fire with fire.

You complain about McCain's many appearances on TV, but a new survey released by the Pew Research Center found that only 26% of Americans thought McCain has been receiving too much media coverage, compared to 48% who think the same about Obama.
