NEW Crazy McCain Photo; Palin on SNL Tonight

NEW Crazy McCain Photo; Palin on SNL Tonight


by Linda Thieman

I realize that in the grand scheme of things, this is less than minor.  But it's sort of like that photo Blog for Iowa ran of a dog doing it's patriotic duty on a Bush/Cheney sign several years ago.  And that is, it's something that just should not be missed by the political activist/connoisseur.

This photo was captured by Reuters' photog Jim Bourg just after Obama and McCain had shaken hands at the end of the third debate.  Obama exited towards his people and McCain began to follow him (click here to see the whole story and the whole photo).  Bourg conjectures that McCain had just been informed that he was going the wrong way and that this was his reaction right before he pivoted to walk off the stage on the other side.

At any rate, it is yet another horrible photo of McCain in a long line of very-easy-to-find horrible photos of McCain that I have been having an enormous amount of fun with on Blog for Iowa these last two weeks.  Check the archives to see what I mean, as if you hadn't noticed.  (A personal favorite is the “blowfish” photo.)

In other world-shaking news, reports indicate that the woman now known as the formerly-charming Sarah Palin will be doing a stint of celebrity image rehab on Saturday Night Live tonight.  If you miss it, never fear–it will be all over the web tomorrow.

Update:  Here's the sketch.
