The elitist label won't stick to McCain because it's simply inaccurate. McCain's non-commitment on one veteran's bill doesn't qualify him as an elitist, in fact I would bet most veterans would trust McCain and support him over Obama in record numbers. It's just hard to paint someone as an "elitist" who spent 6 years in a Vietnamese POW camp and voluntarily turned down the chance to come home because his fellow soldiers didn't get the offer.

It seems to me that Hillary made much more of Obama's derogatory comments regarding small town Americans than McCain. Perhaps, Conason could find some reason to attack her - selling pardons, cashing in on the post-Presidency, duplicity on NAFTA and other trade deals, lying about sniper fire in Bosnia, her remarkable commodity trading abilities - something must be available that's more substantive than this weak and tortured story.

But I was glad to learn that Hillary's daddy taught her how to shoot when she was a little girl. And she can chug a beer and do a heck of a whiskey shot just like regular small town folks. Am I the only one who wants to barf? It's worse than John Kerry in camo.
