Those of us of a certain age remember that when Reagan ran for president that he would use Bruce Springsteen's Born in the USA at his rallies. That was, of course, until his campaign figured out that it's not exactly the rah-rah U-S-A, U-S-A song they thought it was.
Well, it turns out that McCain's campaign isn't any smarter as they are using the Martina McBride song Independence Day when introducing Sarah Palin. Y'know, the song where the woman's sick of the abuse from her husband and burns down the house with him in it? Yup, so Peters is going to donate her royalties from the song when it's played during election season to Planned Parenthood. Nice.
There's another debate tonight. I doubt that I'll watch it live. But, since the polls are going against McCain for now, I would imagine he's going to be playing the "character" card pretty hard. Of course, Obama's too much of a gentleman (for now) to respond with, "So John, tell me when you decided to quit cheating on your wife who was in a horrific car wreck and just divorce her and leave her with 4 kids?"
