As Katie Couric and Charles Gibson board planes to take them to Jordan and Israel respectively, the Republicans are saying “What about us?”
The Republicans have been increasingly vocal about the lack of coverage McCain is getting versus Obama.
“The question really needs to be posed: Is this type of coverage fair?” said Rep. Eric Cantor. “This is nothing but a political stunt.”
Of course the media always plays a big part in the election and it is not the first time they played favorites but they also tend to go with the interesting story. Obama is overseas in Iraq, McCain is in…hey, where is he anyway?
The media will attempt to level the playing field in the coming weeks by throwing something McCains way – I think a guest spot on American Gladiators or something.
You can’t manipulate the media if they are not focusing a camera on you!

I suppose this is where you look for some witty insights to my mind. A "bio" of sorts. Here is the deal... I ride motorcycles, smoke cigars, golf, kayak, fly, race my car through the mountains, write (a lot), and travel extensively. I am almost old enough not to care what other people think about me...almost. ~ Godfather
If that was the case then Hillary would still be in the race!
Well, as an update, with Obama out of the country he (Obama) did get more media coverage, but McCain gained votes. I suspect McCain may be hoping Obama goes on another road trip!
Heard on the radio sometime late last night/early this morning..about a newspaper cartoon on this very issue:
Today, McCain complained about Obama getting lopsided coverage, meanwhile yesterday Obama could be found…
Okay, so it sounded better on the radio than it does reading it in poorly remembered transcript
