McCain was speaking to some Irish group in Pa. and was talking about easing current day Irish immigration. Most of not all of the Irish immigrants are tradesmen, and they run to union membership when they get here. A very awkward little dance for McCain.

I am an Obama supporter, and I am 100% for an amnesty law of some kind, but I sincerely believe that the very first step that has to be taken is a big, long fence on the US-Mexico border. Then whoever comes in can get in line like everyone else. Sorry if that offends you. But this wholesale coming across has to stop. It's funny how we don't worry about "terrorists" coming over the border for some reason just because it's Mexico.

I watched John McCain give a speech this morning in Pennslyvania. After listening to him speak, I have to wonder who writes his scripts.

McCain attacked Obama for his alleged position on a bipartisan immigration bill by saying that Obama was doing the bidding of "union bosses", all the while as he was speaking to a white, working class union crowd. He tries to have it both ways. He didn't tell this group that the "higher taxes" he is complaining about would only affect people making over $250,000 per year.When he praised the Mexican immigrants, he received a lukewarm applause.

It is very obvious that McCain is the candidate of the white middle class status quo. There were no faces in the crowd that were not white. It will be interesting to see how he tries to shift the debate away from the economy and back to personalities. Unfortunately, the people are focused on the economy now.

RIP McCain campaign.
