McCain's Musical Choices? ?

Question

Did anyone notice that they were playing "Barracuda" after McCain's speech? Isn't that a rather odd choice? First, a barracuda is not exactly a pleasant image, and here are some lyrics from that song: "If the real thing don't do the trick, you better make up something quick." Does this seem appropriate, or had Old John never heard the song before and thought the "young folks" would like it?

Prior to that, I heard the theme song from the movie "Rudy." I guess they played that until they realize that Giuliani isn't the candidate, as everyone thought he would be a year ago. I mean, these were just weird musical selections, it seems to me.

So, we've got the barracuda and the pit bull. I'm guessing they're not going for compassionate conservatism or a kinder, gentler nation this time?

Answer 1

Nice edit, Bookish!

Maybe Palin should use these lyrics to guide her daughter instead of abstinence:

"Youd have me down down down down on my knees"

Maybe that kind of s*x education would actually work.

Answer 2

That group made a statement today asking the McCain campaign to stop using their music because they don't agree with McCain polcies.  

Answer 3

Barracuda was Palin's nickname in highschool basketball.

Answer 5

Barracuda was Palin's highschool nickname when she was on the basketball team.  It doesn't go any deeper than that. I'm sorry that you're so afraid you're now dissecting complete nonsense.

I suppose "Barracuda" is better than the "Candy Man."

Answer 8

Answer 9

Answer 10

My wife pointed out that the Republicans made no attempt to draw in any minority voters by their choice of music, theme, or candidates.  They are the whitest and richest party to ever put a candidate up for President.

By the way....

In my home state, there are only 30 days left to register to vote.  The clock is ticking.
