Then McCain counters: Yes, my friends, Obama may be a douche, and douching may feel good and smell nice, but if you think it prevents pregnancy or STDs, you're wrong. My friends, we don't need a douche, we need a great big bag of Evercleanse to scrape the accumulated fecal matter out of the colon that is Washington, and I am that bag.

Then Obama: Ladies and gentlemen, we've just had eight years of a president who thought he was the world's Evercleanse . . .

No, instead we would be hearing how McCain is uncaring and Obama is rolling up his sleaves blah, blah, blah...

You might be right, but part of the problem is that the two campaigns were preparing to issue a joint statement regarding a bipartisan approach to the issue, and then McCain jumped the gun. I think if Obama had pulled a similar stunt, that would be an instance where I would dub him too clever by half.
