McCain Campaign Yard Sale

none of Sarah Palin's fabulous $180,000 wardrobe will be available.
.
Alas indeed. An auction would be a nice way to actually recover more than they paid for the stuff and make that 'giving to charity' idea all the more fruitful.

Or a blackberry that once helped to elect John McCain president?

They're selling stuff from an alternate universe? Kewl. Can I get a history book from the one where Sandy Day and Bill Rhenquist followed the Constitution and Al Gore was president? I wanna compare some of the timelines, events, etc.

Haven't these people heard of Craigslist? Or is that too plebian?

Any cell phone towers for sale JNS?

Dells, ha figures.

I'm holding out for Sarah's red leather "Thriller" jacket.

How about some of Cindy's outfits? She never wore the same outfit twice. I'll offer a coupla' hundred bucks for the red leather pants!

or some great BBQ sauce that isn't so great that it rises to the level of elite, hoidy toidy Georgetown cocktail party BBQ sauces?
.
How about a Time reporter that asked a tough question of the Bush Administration some time over the last 8 years? Oh, they've all been bought already(see BBQ sauce).

Worth picking over carefully -- yard sales are great for treasure-hunting. I mean, you never know -- you may buy an old briefcase and find John McCain's long-lost honor hidden in one of the pockets.

Given the way the Troo Beleevers feel about her, I wouldn't be surprised if that hypothetical auction raised a million-plus. I'm not kidding. Besides the sexual obsessions of Rich Lowry/Bill Kristol types, a lot of them would think they're buying memorabilia of the next and first female president.

Any like-new hardly-ever read bibles available?

This is actually a great idea. Pick something out, send it to a Republican loved one, and include the note, "Hey, I was looking through all this stuff that the McCain campaign doesn't need anymore because it LOST. Do you remember that, when they LOST? Good times, good times."

Oh, and I want Palin's towel.

Palininatowel: I was going to post that I like you without a towel...then I was going to post you don't really need a towel, you're fine without one...then I decide to put down the shovel I was digging a really deep hole with.
.
You have a great wit. Wit or witout a towel

JNS, may I ask which Dickerson question you're referring to? I don't think that the "biggest mistake" Q was all that hard-- I mean, I've been asked that at interviews for lesser positions than president...

"In the last campaign, you were asked a question about the biggest mistake you'd made in your life, and you used to like to joke that it was trading Sammy Sosa. You've looked back before 9/11 for what mistakes might have been made. After 9/11, what would your biggest mistake be, would you say, and what lessons have you learned from it?"'
.
All due respect...if this is the best you could come up with, you've kinda proven my point.

I wonder how much McCain sold his honor for? $10.99 or do we suppose he held out for the big bucks?

queencersei: I'd ask Cindy McCain. What do you think her net worth is?

Do these mementos include:
.
An cd of "Magic Negro" autographed by Rush Limbaugh, himself?
.
How about an Obama monkey?
.
What about the weapons cache those two skinheads had?
.
Does it include Joe the Non-Plumber's framed and autographed tax returns?
.
How about a bloodsoaked Thanksgiving dinner invitation signed by Sarah Palin herself - in blood?
.
Now, these are my favorite things...

JNS, just because he handled it badly doesn't mean it was a good question. Here's a test: can you tell us in your words why we ended up in Iraq? Have you guys in the MSM worked that out yet?

I will buy whatever McCain was smoking when he picked Palin. Good stuff.
