Dunno why this bothers me but it just shows a gross lack of class on the part of John McCain.
Look carefully.
First, it appears that Michelle Obama approaches John McCain, but he turns his back and walks away.
Then, it shows Obama with his hand outstretched to McCain, but McCain points to Cindy McCain and then turns away!! Like… what the hell?!!?
In happier news, Obamanation “author” Jerome Corsi, a veteran of the Swiftboat wars but not commander of his own domain, was detained in Kenya yesterday for being in that country illegally.
Such gall.
Don’t McCain and his swiftboat buddies realize that rules are there for us to follow rather than break? I know where John McCain’s mindset is – as well as those of his followers – but a 72-y.o. really isn’t a teenager anymore and they all ought to dump the “rules are meant to be broken” lifestyle they live.

Wow, that was just kind of rude. I think that the Obamas came out on top just because they were doing the polite thing and getting rudely snubbed

I hadn’t noticed last night, but there’s Michelle trailing after the McCains who freeze her out! Perhaps, and this is putting as nice a spin on it as possible, McCain didn’t hear her and has no peripheral vision–sort of a metaphor for him in general. And his foreign policy.
