McCain On Leno

John McCain appeared on The Tonight Show last night, walking out to a standing ovation from the audience. Leno had opened with a monologue litany of old man jokes and McCain continued with jokes of his own. "My security number is 8." As always, McCain is smooth and charming and gets some deserved laughs when he offers his VP slot to Leno. In Part 2, McCain predictably launches into the tired "Noun, verb, POW" theme. What worries me the most about McCain is how damned likeable he can seem. The majority of American voters probably only have a faint idea of what McCain's party stands for, they only see the smiling soft-spoken nice guy.
