Free,
I'm not much of an SNL fan. But I was watching one of the Sunday news shows on TV. They re-ran some clips of McCain playing an evil husband (or whatever). It was creepy. |

Colbert Issues 'Green Screen' Challenge to McCainiacs McCain Feels YouTube Heat Following Comedian's Challenge By RON CLAIBORNE June 11, 2008 - In a speech on the night of the final Democratic primaries that recognized Sen. Barack Obama's emergence as the presumptive Democratic candidate for president, Sen. John McCain stood in front of a newly unveiled campaign poster inscribed with the slogan "A Leader We Can Believe In." Unlike his official campaign colors, which are predominantly a rich blue, the sign behind McCain was green. That may have been an unfortunate choice. Unwittingly no doubt, the green background provided a crude "green screen," the background used in television to project video behind the reporter. It is probably best known as a way for television weathercasters to look as though they're standing in front of a meteorological map or animated graphics. In McCain's case, the green background allowed Comedy Central's Stephen Colbert to issue one of his famous "Green Screen Challenges." "By speaking in front of a green screen, John McCain issues a bold challenge to Americans to make him seem interesting," the political satirist said.... Mac

Mac,
I suspect due to age, McCain would be more likely to make that blunder. Bush made the mistake of wearing a narrow pattern tie, that appeared to dazzle wildly as he gave his speech. Younger persons may be more tech-savvy; less likely to make these blunders. But Mac, the part that's got me in a minor snarl is McCain's car battery challenge. I support McCain's objective. But is that really a sensible way to go about it? Seems like tomfoolery to me. |

But Mac, the part that's got me in a minor snarl is McCain's car battery challenge.I've not seen any clearly defined parameters for this "better" battery, so yeah...it seems like a chicken-in-every-pot gimmick to me, too. Mac
