McCain to accept nomination in a town hall setting
ST. PAUL, Minn. - John McCain embarks on his final drive for the White House Thursday night, accepting the Republican presidential nomination and addressing the party's national convention from a stage that workers hastily rebuilt to fit his "town hall" approach.

2. Wonder if his new stage will include a model of the box he lived in for
5 years in Hanoi, you know, just to reinforce the point that he didn't have a house during that time.

I'm both ashamed and embarassed that he's from my state. I never voted for him, though..

5. That's because all but the last 150 drooling diehards have left
the convention in disgust.
