My lacrosse coach once made our team perform our “go-to” in front of our entire team. A go-to is the dance move or moves you can fall back on at a club or dance when you A) run out of moves, or B) are trying to attract a dance partner. Go-tos are important, but not static. They can change depending on the situation, or what shoes you wear that night.
Earlier this week, Fox News reported that McCain is unveiling a new stump speech, the go-to of candidates. So McCain either A) ran out of moves, or B) is trying to attract voters.
Rather than a sprint to the finish line, maybe this is a signal that the Republican ticket is grasping at straws. They’re about six points down with only three weeks to go. Is this sudden shift in stump speech telling of the McCain/Palin ticket’s breakdown?
Or could this be the turning point for the Republican ticket? US News & World Report said his new speech has received positive coverage.
And as Obama is “measuring his drapes” McCain says, “But they forgot to let you decide. My friends, we’ve got them just where we want them.”
My go-to has always been pretty effective, but sometimes they just don’t cut it. We’ll see how low McCain has to limbo in this dance-off for votes.
