How soon before some cynics try to claim the timing was deliberate to help
generate a sympathy vote tomorrow?

Sadly, I wasn't kidding. But I do feel bad about the misuse of the word cynic.
I know some cynics who are fine, fine people.
The jackass who suggests this (and I'm predicting it's out there in the
blogosphere already) will be a disgrace to cynics everywhere.

Obama's Grandmother died today, very sad indeed.
Thankfully he was able to take a little time to visit her. I'm sure he would never have forgiven himself if he hadn't. It's always hard to lose someone close.

I have to admit I'm a bit dismayed that anyone here even suggested that someone would say it was deliberate. That's just sad.

Dying is a fact of our existence, but very difficult to accept.
I am glad that he was able to visit her, and I hope that his dedication to this campaign is rewarded by the American people with the appointment of him as their new comander in chief.

Yes Scott, I believe that it would be an all time low, but I can expect anything from Sarah Palin, not McCain, he seems to be a very decent man, but that woman....

Marcio, Scott is saying that he's dismayed that I would suggest it will
happen, not that it will or how it might. It's me he's dismayed with - not
anyone from any campaign or anywhere else.

Oh, now I think I got it, so, if Sarah Palin say that it's ok, it just cannot be you Al.
But that's not fair, is it?

No, that's not what he was saying.
Simply that he is dismayed and sad that I suggested it will happen.

Can we just use Portuguese for a change?
Sorry Al, I am just kidding.
