What should Dems nickname for McCain be?
I heard somebody on Air America ask this in the middle of the night, and it is critical to shape the public image of him.

My choices:


  • Prisoner of W
    (like POW except the W stand for Worst president, Walker bush)

  • Bush's Bitch
    (yeah, yeah, yeah, we don't like that word, but attaching it to McCain would have a layer of irony given how the GOP talks about Hillary)

1. Some people here call him Home Fries.

14. "McCain's" is a frozen potato products company.
It's almost better as a complete mystery, though, or as a reference to the guy's weird, doughy complexion.

18. assuming Barack is the nominee "McSame" is REALLY good

because it contrasts with "Change". And because it nearly rhymes with McCain - so it's stickier.
