You don't understand me.(?)

So, what's the drive behind John McCain's slew of ads attacking Barack Obama's image and credibility? Envy. Pure, green eyed envy. Or at least New York Times' columinist Maureen Dowd thinks so. She reports:

"...John McCain is pea-green with envy. That’s the only explanation for why a man who prides himself on honor, a man who vowed not to take the low road in the campaign, having been mugged by W. and Rove in South Carolina in 2000, is engaging in a festival of juvenilia.

The Arizona senator who built his reputation on being a brave proponent of big solutions is running a schoolyard campaign about tire gauges and Paris Hilton, childishly accusing his opponent of being too serious, too popular and not patriotic enough.

Even his own mother, the magical 96-year-old Roberta McCain, let slip that she thought the Paris Hilton-Britney Spears ad was “kinda stupid.”"


Oh Word?
