Gaffe Factory overload

The Huffington Post has reported brilliantly on John McCain's very bad week, however it keeps getting worse. The McCain campaign has had gaffes and mis-speaks with great implications. The week started off with McCain himself repeating over and over that the "fundamentals of our economy is strong", and then on Tuesday he went on to say the "fundamentals of our economy is in crisis". Keep in mind, this is a week that our country has seen the worst economic meltdown since the Great Depression. Then came adviser Carly Fiorina's gaffe, repeated twice, once on the radio and second on MSNBC, when asked if Sarah Palin is qualified to run a major company, she replied "No, but she is not running for that", she continued to say that none of the candidates including Barack Obama, John McCain or Joe Biden are qualified to run a major company. It does not stop there. VP candidate, Sarah Palin's Yahoo e-mail account was hacked and Gawker, and Wikileak have posted numerous e-mails from the account.

While, pushing the idea of being "agents of change", the "Troopergate" scandal is stonewalled, with 13 people close to her refusing to serve subpoenas issued, including her husband Todd Palin. Thats not "change" we can believe in. Ok, at this point insert a swing in momentum in Barack Obama's favor. That is not it. While giving an interview to Spanish radio, McCain seemed confused as to what hemisphere Spain is in. Reminded repeatedly that Spain's PM is Jose Zapatero, who is an ally,and since his election is awaiting a meeting with the White House. McCain went on to say

"Honestly, I have to look at relations, and the situations, and the priorities but I can assure you I will establish closer relations with our friends, and I will stand up to those who want to do harm to the United States of America. I know how to do both."

Keep in mind, that while Spain has withdrawn it's troops from Iraq, it continues to fight with us in Afghanistan. It keeps going, John McCain stumped for offshore oil rigs in a fashion you'd hear from a disoriented individual on pain-killers. Watch it here.

Yet, while it is only Friday morning we have time for even more. Keep posted for updates. One last one for now, at a campaign event running mate Sarah Palin apparently recognizing the bad, has now flipped the ticket
