(CNN) – The time between the final answer in any presidential debate and the campaign press release declaring victory can usually best be measured in milliseconds. But John McCain’s campaign – which has been downplaying his performance at Friday’s faceoff, offering praise for opponent Barack Obama’s “eloquence” and debating skill – seems to have decided it’s never too soon to start spinning the outcome.
The Washington Post reported Friday that the campaign was running an online ad featuring the headline: "McCain Wins Debate!" and a photo of a smiling McCain and an American flag background. Another featured a quote from McCain campaign manager Rick Davis: "McCain won the debate — hands down."The Obama campaign quickly circulated the report – which came moments before McCain’s team confirmed he would take part in the evening debate after all.
In other news, THE GIANTS WIN THE PENNANT! THE GIANTS WIN THE PENNANT!
Look, any way you cut it, McCain is getting some bad advice from someone. The whole debate-is-off, debate-is-on thing just makes him look silly and indecisive. Did anyone actually believe that his presence in DC was the magic elixir that would fix Depression II? Bitch please.
One thing's for sure. We won't learn anything about either candidate that we don't already know. McCain will reference his POW story at least once. And Obama will answer at least one question with a long rambling monologue that doesn't really say anything. Wait, that's three things.
Happy Friday, everyone! Bud Light Limes on me!
And now, a word from the indispensible LOLcat Bible. Genesis 1, verses 3-5:
