Politico picked up the AP article. This will get out there. When the AP does a story it circulates. The Dems should be all over this is they want McCain to look bad.

BUMP for the talk shows. The news channels will not cover this. Talk shows might.

[Knightskye]

"Hey, thanks for having me on. I just wanted to say something unrelated to what you've been talking about for the past hour..."

They do have a "dump" button, or "drop", and they'll just go to the next caller if you start babbling about something. Especially if you mention Ron Paul. I don't like this idea.

[wgadget]

So, now we just throw up our hands and give up on any opportunity we might have with the free press?

I'd call that defeatism.
