Presidential Geek Survey Diary – Day 245
Two days after Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama went at it over who gets to answer the shiny red clown phone at 3AM, John McCain got in on it, announcing that he can answer phones, too, as long as it’s not Mike Huckabee calling for another debate.
Hillary Clinton’s ad says:
I’m already connected and know everyone who needs knowing, so when your kids are sleeping, I’m the best person to answer the White House phone. Well, it would really be my aides answering the phone – the president has to screen calls. I know, because I used to live in the White House.
Barack Obama’s ad says:
Well, I’ve known that it Al Qaeda in Afghanistan who wanted to kill your children in 2002, not Al Qaeda in Iraq. I even gave a speech about the war in 2002. Have you heard it? Really? You haven’t? The important thing is, you know I made the speech and I was against the war from the start. So, I’m the best person to answer that phone at 3AM.
Undead Grampers didn’t take out an ad, but pontificated on the topic at a campaign stop today:
Where is there a phone ringing? I don’t hear it. Cindy! Is your phone ringing? Or is that Megan’s? What? The White House phone? Sure, I could answer that. At 3 AM? Well, who’s calling? It’s not Huckabee, is it? I’ll show him what he can do with his debate. Oh, crap. You’re still recording. Sure, I’m the best at 3 AM. Oh, you were still talking about the phone, huh?

He certainly wasn’t talking about the Geek Survey (which would have better manners than to call at 3AM).
Score
