My friends …

So I was accidentally taken to the McCain campaign Web site while trying to create my own “I am Joe the Plumber” sign (mine read: “I am Bill the Unrepentant Terrorist” and “I am drinking the Metamucil”) and in order to get your sign, you have to put in your e-mail address and await its moderation.

Surprisingly, I never got my sign, but I have been apparently put on the McCain campaign e-mail list. It’s unfortunate, I know, but it is funny to see that every day I get an e-mail from the Obama campaign, sometimes two. In a week, I’ve received three e-mails from the McCain campaign.

Anyway, today’s e-mail came directly from John McCain, which is odd, because I was under the impression that he isn’t quite sure how to use the e-mail, but whatever.

The greeting on the e-mail? You guessed it:

My Friends,

I shouldn’t have expected anything else from Johnny Mac, but it still made me chuckle when I read it. One other note from the e-mail is that McCain quotes Yogi Berra in the opening paragraph. Completely appropriate that one absent-minded old man quotes another.
