As the LA Times noted, maybe it's time for Obama to take a well deserved vacation

Have a week at a favorite family spot, rest up and maybe do a couple of photo ops.

Looking through the media, the spotlight's turned on McCain- and what it's exposing isn't pretty.

Stupid remark after stupid, offensive remark -stories about his past (including the appalling behavior that ended his first marriage).

Napoleon famously said: "never interrupt your enemy while he's making a mistake."

That's sound advise, and with McCain and his surrogates showing no signs of retreating from their march of folly, why not take this time to relax a bit from the constant campaigning, run some ads and recharge the batteries for the final run?

1. yeah, if anything to get out of the spot light for a second and get the MsM talking about McSame....

...I think my niece put it best; McCain is sooooooo boring it's more interesting talking about the good AND the bad of Obama...there really nothing good about McCain...he's so boring

2. I am loving that McSame is getting bad press

I hope it lasts.

The Gramm stuff, combined with reviving the desire to "fix" Social Security is super damaging to his campaign.

3. but Obama's hilarious responses after every McBush gaffe would be missed

He can't give me funny material like "Dr. Phil" and then just go away for a week! It's hard enough when the DUzy's are postponed! :D

5. He can do that just fine from a lawn chair!

Maybe even better.

7. hmmm....good point.

As long as he keeps up with the zingers, then I'm convinced. I'm selfish that way :D

4. I think that Obama's trip to Europe and Iraq will give him a big

boost. Personally I do not see how politicians can stand the daily grind of giving one speech after the other. Of course Bush gave the same one so it was no problem for him.

6. Obama take a break? - but what would Bill & Hil say...?

8. Yep... like when you are winning your case in court...

By giving the other guy enough rope to hang himself. Idiots always talk too much when they are cornered.

9. I think this wiould be a good time for a break.

He needs it. He has been going all out for awhile now, and with the press giving McInsane a going over it is a good time.
