"McCains' campaign headquarters in Arlington, Va., is on the M floor — M for McCain. ( M is one above 12. The
whole floor was renamed and relabeled by the campaign, right down to
the buttons on the elevators. McCain is superstitious, his spokeswoman
explained; it’s a fighter-pilot thing. But isn’t M the 13th letter in
the … ? Never mind.)
Consider what we’ve learned about McCain’s superstitions:
* McCain believes it’s bad luck for someone to hand him a salt shaker.
* McCain believes it’s bad luck to throw a hat onto a bed.
* McCain regularly carries 31 cents in lucky change in his pocket.
* McCain carries a lucky feather, a lucky compass, a lucky penny, a lucky nickel, a lucky quarter, and a laminated four-leaf clover.
* McCain believes it’s bad luck to pick up a coin if it isn’t heads up.
* McCain’s been known to have an aide carry his lucky pen at all times."

--Didn't we already have a gop presidency run with tarot cards? Nancy? Nancy? Been there, done that.
But, wait, it gets better:
*mccain's gas tax holiday was a bust;
*his drill-more oil-relief plan' been shown to be useless;
*Now, about the drilling, he's claiming: "Even though it may take some years, the fact that we are exploiting
those reserves would have psychological impact that I think is
beneficial.”

Got that? While he supported leaving the enron-loophole as law (which closing would bring down oil/gas prices), he's advocating (useless for years) more drilling b/c it'll give us warm fuzzies inside.
Me, I'd appreciate the extra $30 bucks left in my pocket from $2 gas. That's all the beneficial psychological impact I need, thank you.
