AP Abandons Straight Reporting
Good grief. The AP can't even report on John McCain's visit to Maine without making the story Obama-centric.
KENNEBUNKPORT, Maine (AP) — Republican John McCain worked on Monday to wrestle the spotlight from rival Barack Obama's tour of Iraq by insisting he was right and the Democrat was wrong about the war and releasing a new critical ad blaming higher gas prices on his opponent.Heaven forbid someone try to pull the spotlight off the Chosen One, huh?As Obama toured the war zones trailed by U.S. network TV anchors, McCain ridiculed him from afar during a visit with the first President George Bush at his summer home on the Atlantic. At the same time, the Republican contender released an eyebrow-raising new ad flatly blaming the Illinois senator for higher gasoline prices.
