I know that the past couple days have been all-McCain all the time, but I do have quite a bit to say. Following yesterday's town hall event, I was invited into a press conference with the Senator. All the rumors about media being ultra-liberal and only viewing things from the Democrat point of view are true. A solid chunk of the questions had to do with what John McCain thinks about the Democrats, what the Democrats think about John McCain, and if/what John McCain thinks about which Democrat he wants to match up with. That was the softball lefty stuff, and McCain shrugged off the questions by telling them that he was there to run his campaign, not comment on their campaigns.

The most interesting, and perhaps disturbing moment, came when a woman said that there were only two African-Americans at the town hall, and they were both sitting behind the Senator. First off, as someone who was there scanning the crowds, that was completely inaccurate, and secondly, how is that relevent? Well, the woman used that comment to set up a question about affirmative action, and while the nominee gave an excellent response about our military being the best equal opportunity employer and the world and quotas being wrong, you could tell she was unhappy. This is typical. Members of the press at the town hall that were working cameras would joke to each other about our nominee, and I heard one woman from a local paper call him a war-mongerer while talking to a man I believe was from the Associated Press. I might've been one of the only Conservatives in the media that was present.
