McCain finds it tough without Palin

[gateley]

:rofl: (Editorial comment)

PHILADELPHIA - Republican presidential candidate John McCain cut short his first public appearance without running-mate Sarah Palin after chanting supporters of Democratic rival Barack Obama interrupted his speech.

After lunching with a roundtable women at Philadelphia’s Down Home Diner, McCain shook hands with supporters and strode up to a podium to deliver a statement. But as he spoke, chants of “Obama, Obama, Obama” filled the room.

Reporters craned forward trying to hear the Arizona senator. Unfortunately for McCain — and possibly overlooked by aides who planned the event — a section of the diner opened up to a market where a crowd had gathered behind a cordon. <snip>

His words were barely audible. <snip>

“Pennsylvania is a battleground state as we can tell,” McCain said. <snip>

10. Plants...he's paying people to be "rude" to win sympathy

It's an old Nixon trick; McCain tried it at his convention speech and he obviously liked it.
