Well tangentially related since Mark pointed out Detroit is the top economically depressed cities, it's been reported that McCain is pulling out of Michigan. Pulling all ads, mailings, and canceling appearances. At this point I'm doing the happy dance, the ads were sooo bad and untruthful I'll be glad not to be inundated with them even to the small extent I was. Tivos are a godsend.
I used to like McCain, back in 2000 I wanted him to win the R nomination. Now, I think he's a toad.
