Those who are crammed in under the Obama campaign bus better make room for one more guest. Philadelphia's subtly named The Bulletin (I've never heard of it either) reports:
Gen. Merrill A. McPeak, the most senior retired general advisor the Obama campaign, raised a few eyebrows when he suggested John McCain, the former POW and presumptive nominee, is, shall we say, pleasantly plump.
"He was fresh out of jail, you know," Gen. McPeak told the Washington Times. Both he and Mr. McCain sat in the same National War College class in 1973-74.
"Skinny kid. All beat up of course, physically. But quite thin. They weren't feeding him very well in Hanoi. He's done very well at the dinner table in Washington," the general added.
It's a good thing Obama is so repulsed by even the thought of personal insults inveighing on his upliftingly pristine campaign. If he weren't, can you imagine how ugly his supporters' comments would be?
