In this post from McCain "strategist" Martin Eisenstadt, he denies that he was with John McCain to get prostitutes on a recent trip to Vietnam, and assures us that probably nothing happened in those private closed-door meetings between McCain and Michelle Malkin ('that took more time than staff expected'). He also accuses the BBC journalist who caught him making those claims of getting him drunk at the time, and is now threatening to sue her.

Naturally, this is his latest response to the BBC doc "The Last Republican" which I posted here:

Watch them both while you can. One way or another, I don't think Eisenstadt will be working for McCain much longer. (FYI, this is the same guy who started the rumor that Joe the Plumber was "canoodling" Kristin Wiig at the SNL after-party the other day.)

1. My idea of Hell is living in a country where satire has died because

nobody's sure when they're seeing it anymore. From the headline, I thought I was entering an Onion thread or maybe satiricalpolitical. But shit--it seems to be real.

I think I'll go bang my head on something for a while.

2. Is this a joke? First time hearing/reading about this. Is the story true?

6. I'm going to argue it's a joke

If you look up Martin Eisenstadt - or M. Thomas Eisenstadt - you'll find lots of funny stuff.

[peacetalksforall]

10. And Michele Malkin - OF ALL PEOPLE! She'll probably sue, if she can.

3. LMFAO

eat it, you piece of shit. what a loser!!!!!!!!

[knightmaar]

4. I've heard of drunk dialing

But it seems like he drunk-interviewed.
And now he's drunk vlogging?
Maybe he should calm down a bit first.

5. I just hope it goes viral on YouTube

Do you realize how many right wing religious wingnuts worship Michelle Malkin....I posted on some of the wingnut boards today the YouTube video ...they are seething.


Michelle Malkin the Trollup, the Harlot... I would never ever let her forget it.

7. According to this guy, Martin Eisenstadt is a hoax

http://shakespearessister.blogspot.com/2008/06/abrad2345-releases-latest-video-as-hoax.html

Claims he is the one in this notorious ad: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGUOUgNa8B0&eurl=http://shakespearessister.blogspot.com/2008/06/abrad2345-releases-latest-video-as-hoax.html

8. If he reacts to pressure like this, OMG no one will hire him. For anything

Geesh he is just making a fool out of him self.
"I think he doth protest too much"

9. Awesome hoax!

He's definitely one funny guy!

But it took some time to figure it out ... not the husband back there mumbling, "It's a hoax, it's a HOAX" ... but some time for me to fail at proving him wrong.

11. Michelle Malkin liked Eisenstadt enough to quote him

I just found this on her site from last month:
http://michellemalkin.com/2008/10/16/is-joe-wurzelbacher-related-to-charles-keating-and-does-it-matter/
Who knows, maybe she does know him from her "time" with the Senator?

[Aslanspal]

12. I hope this is not a hoax???

Because I posted it on a lot of right wing religious sites.....My Lord 123abawd can you reassure me this guy is a McCain insider???

[123abawd]

13. I'd LIKE to reassure you...

best as I've been able to figure it, he's not exactly who he says he is, but he's definitely got insider connections to the McCain campaign. He's had the inside scoop on too many things not to be getting leaks from the inside:

- he was the first to break that Paris Hilton's family was mad at the McCain campaign:
http://www.eisenstadtgroup.com/2008/07/31/paris-hiltons-family-fuming-at-mccain-campaign/
and here:
http://www.eisenstadtgroup.com/2008/08/04/paris-hiltons-mom-confirms-story-angry-at-mccain/

- he was the first to break that the McCain campaign was nervous that they overplayed their Joe the Plumber cards, when he revealed that Joe might be related to Charles Keating, and they should have vetted him sooner:
http://www.eisenstadtgroup.com/2008/10/15/joe-the-plumber-wurzelbacher-related-to-charles-keating-oops/
and
http://www.eisenstadtgroup.com/2008/10/17/updates-on-the-joe-the-plumber-story/

- and he was the first to draw attention to Sarah Palin's makeup artists, one of whom was the highest paid member of the campaign staff, and another was the source of the $900 spray-on tan:
http://www.eisenstadtgroup.com/2008/10/24/rnc-paid-for-a-spray-on-tan-for-sarah-palin-too/
and
http://www.eisenstadtgroup.com/2008/10/23/the-woman-who-put-lipstick-on-sarah-palin-also-has-a-lien-problem/


And then there's this happy-go-lucky picture of him with Joe the Plumber. Some people have started to debunk the theory that Joe liplocked Kristin Wiig, but no one's denied that Marty and Joe hung out together the night of SNL. He wouldn't have been able to do that if he didn't have some connection.

15. Well the Obama landslide

Obama landslide pretty much bumped my posts a couple of pages into oblivion.


thanks for the information, I just cannot stand Michelle Malkin and would pay just to see
her diminished to selling shoes in the Philippines.


Take care

YES WE Can!

[123abawd]

16. and I thought Sarah Palin was going to be the next Imelda Marcos

... what with the shoes and all.

Sure is funny watching the GOP jackals attack her now. Good thing she headed back to Africa - er, I mean Alaska.

14. Gawker story reveals some answers to the mystery:

this came out yesterday, before the election returns buried the story. I guess if anyone's writing the postmortems on the election, one interesting side note will be "Who was Martin Eisenstadt?"
