The McCain Train Off Track

The Sweeney/McCain fundraiser is getting the "straight-talker" some bad blog-o-sphere. Stop John McCain says:
Let me get this straight: McCain's shilling for a corrupt Congressman who parties with frat boys, goes on skiing retreats with lobbyists, votes the party line, and refers to his female opponent as “a pretty face"? Yep, looks like "The Straight-Talk Express" has left the station.

Also check out coverage of this district on the Main St. USA blog, a member of the reality based community):

Gerrymandering can only take you so far. Look at that district. Lots of poor folks who are probably not enjoying $3.00+ a gallon gasoline. Most have never been to a frat party, even when they were the right age. The NYTimes takes note of John Sweeney's (cough, cough) ineptitude.

Hey Lisa M., thanks for the link & the comment on my blog.

I grew up in Delaware County -- before I moved to Mass., we had a good Congressman, Matt McHugh, one of the post-Watergate Class of '74 reformers. Shame to think Sweeney now represents those same folks.

Gillibrand all the way!
