Yes, it's about houses and McCain's constant jabbing at Obama as an elitist. There is nothing Rovian or sinister about that.

People are throwing around the "childish" word as if to somehow shame others for encouraging this, suggesting instead Monopoly piece earrings or bracelets. Yeah, that's more mature.

This is a political campaign, and there are gesture like these used all the time.

The public has already heard about the houses, they have no clue about key-related PTSD.

This entire debate is about house keys and the likelihood that the GOP would spin it as a reference to McCain's PTSD. This is what the GOP is willing to do to win: expose McCain as a person traumatized by keys?

The purpose of the keys is to focus on McCain seven to 12 homes, not attack McCain's alleged PTSD (Does anyone have definitive evidence that this is true?)

The hyperventilating that the media is going to make McCain's alleged PTSD an issue by conflating the two thereby destroying Obama's campaign and embarrassing Democrats is complete BS.

The entire cast of Swift Lying purple band-aid promoters are either working for or donating to McCain's campaign. Some are probably the same ones who swiftboated Max Cleland.

McCain doesn't care.

McCain has already been called out by Vets for exploiting his status as a former POW: here and here.

McCain stands by and allows Vets to be attacked, and is linked to a group that has attacked Vets.

I find the hyperbole surrounding the keys to be ridiculous.





edited typos.
