For a little more than a month both of the presidential campaigns have been trying to get the other on their mode of transportation. On the one hand one Donna Vasey, an Obamiac, wrote on July 1 It is unbelievable to me that John McFeelyourpain...just can't touch you!! would have the nerve to fly around the country in such a showy manner when people are looking for health care.. looking.to pay less at the pump(here we have someone riding around at $20,000. a crack if the number on the news is correct....,where's the conservation...oh that's right..that is for us to do. This man doesn't have a clue...oh yes..drill off shore so in 2017 you 'll feel better and be paying less at the pump...remember it's our mind set...some of us just need help adjusting....now I've been a die hard Rpublican my whole life and I am embarrasssssssed by this man.
It's Obama for me ...and that haircut over the weekend I"m sure was no $200-400 deal either. Go Obama
McCain is flying on a converted 737. On the other hand Obama has just spent a half a million bucks to upgrade his plane to a 757. His chair includes what any sane person would call a bit of an over-stretch.
The point of this is not to criticize, as Ms. Vasey has, the way that candidates get from here to there. As one who flies a lot even in the best of circumstances flying is not fun nor easy. The differences between a 757 and a 737 may be based on relative budget. But the logo on the back of Senator Obama's chair is yet another sign that he may not be a part of the common touch that he tries to portray. There may be a lot more important issues facing the nation than what kind of plane the candidate flies on - but perceptions can destroy a candidate. If you think not just remember the other presidential campaign transportation story - Michael Dukakis in a tank.
