What a shocker! McCain To Do Stephanopoulos This Weekend
McCain To Do Stephanopoulos This Weekend
By Greg Sargent - April 18, 2008, 10:29AM

According to his calender, John McCain will appear on This Week with George Stephanopoulos this Sunday.

Something tells me that a lot of people will be watching to see if Steph asks McCain tough "gotcha" questions designed to gauge his "electability" and his ability to handle future attacks, as he claimed to be doing at Wednesday's Dem debate.

Anyone offering odds?

Late Update: John Aravosis has a good list of questions Steph might ask McCain (at link)

14. Thanks but I've been there a couple of times, plus Moveon's petition, plus
emailed ABC. Who says I'm obsessive???? But I am hoping to get George's direct email thru ABC. Oh yeah, also sent a LTTE to local paper.

17. You know as well as I do that there will be no questions like that.
99.999999999% chance.

As close to certainty as one can get.

Stephanapoulbush will be in Toady Mode. He will cower and roll over and beg for a pat on the cheeck from McBush.

Then he will cash his ten gazillion dollar paycheck and laugh at the stupid rubes.

9. You can't listen to any Republican. You have to watch what they
do.

You could be drowning and they would swear they are immersed in the water swimming to you, while their company representative is having a back room meeting to divide you belongings after your gone,and they are duck hunting with their best rich friends.

It matters nothing what they say it's what they do that you have to watch - then remember.

At least with most of our candidates you can pick apart their language for precise meaning then slap them around some if you think their word use or inflection is insulting.

When was the last time *Co words represented their actions and those actions were of any benefit to what will help us be a better country.

McCain could speak to me til he was blue, but until he established some credibility I would just hear hogwash.

18. Exclusive preview of George's questions for McCain!
"Senator McCain, why do you think Obama hates America?"
"Senator, how quickly would you have denounced Rev. Wright if you went to his church?"
"That's a really great flag pin you're wearing. Just wanted to say that."
"Can you sign an autograph for my niece?"
