Guess who isn't on the shows today? Yes, the woman described by a McCain aide as a "diva" won't be on the Sunday shows tomorrow, which means she'll never be on the Sunday shows (at least for this election cycle.) Her nemesis, John McCain, will be on Meet the Press with Brokaw.
Besides that, we get a slew of surrogates (and McCain's top cheerleader, Lindsey). Would be nice if Governor Rendell actually made it through an interview without a major gaffe -- and actually told the world unequivocally that Obama is going to win his state. Otherwise, we'll have to deal with that bogus "Pennsylvania is in play" story line for a couple more days. You have to love how the pundits dutifully regurgitated that GOP spin. They can be so gullible. But, it's all the McCain/Palin ticket has (especially since the big hoax pushed so feverishly by the McCain campaign in Pennsylvania was, well, a big hoax.)
I am so over most of the GOP surrogates, especially Heather Wilson. She is beyond annoying. So glad she lost her House seat. After MCain loses, let's hope she fades into oblivion -- or gets hired by FOX, which is the same thing.
