On television today a Democratic operative pointed out that when Obama holds a rally 25-30,000 people show up, whereas when McCain holds one he only draws 10-15,000.
The Republican spokesman replied, “That’s because McCain’s supporters are at work.”

McCain and Palin Call out Katie Couric on “Gotcha Journalism
First of all, Katie Couric is the last person in the world that ought to be talking about “qualifications”!
Watch Katie’s eyes “blink” multiple times in rapid succession after John McCain says, “This is not the first time that I’ve seen a Governor being questioned by some quote, ‘expert.’ I remember that Ronald Reagan was a ‘cowboy’…”
Priceless!
Sarah Palin Takes Her Cheesesteak with Cheese Whiz and Onions
Sarah once again proves that she is one of us! She knows how to order a Philly Cheesesteak. No Swiss cheese for her and I’ll bet she didn’t try to eat it with a fork either.
Sarah Palin Likes Her Cheesesteak ‘With’
Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin takes her cheesesteak with Cheese Whiz and onions.
The Republican vice presidential candidate made a brief campaign stop at Tony Luke’s steak shop in South Philadelphia on Saturday evening. Wearing jeans and a beige raincoat, Palin greeted curious
onlookers, signed autographs and posed for pictures before ordering two steaks to go.“Sarah, your steak is ready,” a cashier said over the loudspeaker a few minutes after she ordered.
As dozens of onlookers crowded around her, Palin headed back to the window to pick up the order. The cashier told her the order was on the house, so Palin tossed her cash into a donation jar outside
the window. A smiling Palin signed autographs on scraps of paper at the window while she waited.“Thank you so much for letting me stop in,” she said before picking up the bags and heading back to her SUV with 14-year-old daughter Willow at her side.
Ordering cheesesteaks at a Philadelphia steak shop is a longtime tradition in the City of Brotherly Love, where the sandwich is a cultural icon.
Palin said she thinks Arizona Sen. John McCain was “awesome” and “absolutely on his game” in Friday night’s presidential debate with Democratic Sen. Barack Obama. Both candidates have been
campaigning heavily in Pennsylvania, expected to be a key battleground in the November election.One undecided voter at Saturday’s stop said she was charmed after a brief talk with Palin, and more inclined to vote for McCain. Shannon Sampere, 24, of Newark, Del., said she and Palin talked about good bakeries in the area, adding that she found her to be very down to earth.
“She’s a very genuine person,” Sampere said.
The cashier told her the order was on the house, so Palin tossed her cash into a donation jar outside the window.
Would Hillary do that?
Remember this… John Kerry demonstrates how not to eat a cheesesteak.
If Sen. John F. Kerry’s presidential aspirations melt like a dollop of Cheez Whiz in the sun, the trouble may well be traced to an incident in South Philadelphia on Monday.
There, the Massachusetts Democrat went to Pat’s Steaks and ordered a cheesesteak — with Swiss cheese. If that weren’t bad enough, the candidate asked photographers not to take his picture while he ate the sandwich; shutters clicked anyway, and Kerry was caught nibbling daintily at his sandwich — another serious faux pas.
“It will doom his candidacy in Philadelphia,” predicted Craig LaBan, food critic for the Philadelphia Inquirer, which broke the Sandwich Scandal. After all, Philly cheesesteaks come with Cheez Whiz, or occasionally American or provolone. But Swiss cheese? “In Philadelphia, that’s an alternative lifestyle,” LaBan explained.
