Nothing Says "Country First" Like Meeting with The Wife of a British Aristocrat

Wow. Lets recap yesterday:

- McCain freaks out and "suspends" his campaign;

- He tries to cancel Friday's debate (probably not for that purpose, but to actually suspend or cancel next Thursday's VP debate.);

- He cites the financial "crisis" (I guess the "fundamentals" from 9/15 are no longer "strong" a week later);

- He claims he needs to go straight back to Washington (despite the fact that his role as a Republican Senator has little, if anything to do with the conference committee negotiating the deal or caucusing with the House Republicans who seem to be holding out);

- He cancels Letterman, claiming that he has to be in DC right away (nevermind that this is a flat out LIE, as he's in another CBS studio at the time);

But the mother of all silliness is that, despite claiming not to have time for much of anything at all, he DID MAKE TIME to meet with Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild, mega-millionaire wife of British Aristocracy, and former Hillary Clinton supporter.



As Richard Wolfe said last night on Olbermann's show: "nothing says 'country first' like meeting with the wife of a British aristocrat."
