Poor McCain can’t catch a break

As Obama continues his World Wide Adulation Tour, poor McCain can’t get anyone to come to his events.

The senator’s low-key arrival in Manchester stood in stark contrast to his Democratic rival’s ongoing visit to the Middle East…. McCain spent most of the day in Maine, where he joined former President George H.W. Bush in Kennebunkport and later campaigned in Portland with the state’s two Republican senators.

In Manchester last night, there was just one reporter and one photographer waiting for McCain as his plane — a white, blue and gold Boeing 737-400 emblazoned with his campaign slogan, “Reform, Prosperity, Peace” — touched down on the Wiggins Airways tarmac.

I think your problem may be two fold.  First, before campaigning in New England, it is inadvisable to be seen sitting in Yankee Stadium with a guy wearing the hat of the Evil Empire.

Secondly, Maine is far more excited right now about the Secretary of Offense of Red Sox Nation who is playing in Portland.

David Ortiz continued in his minor league rehab assignment in Portland, Maine. Big Papi delivered in his first game with the Sea Dogs. Ortiz went 2 for 3 with an RBI in his fourth minor league game.

My Dad, who is an inveterate liberal thinks that Obama planned the whole thing.  Sea Dogs tickets sold out in 8 minutes.
