McCain, Candidate Of The Teenyboppers

Who is the celebrity candidate with all the adoring fans? Stop before you say Barack Obama. Some of McCain’s adoring fans lined up in York like it was 1999 and McCain was N’Sync.

First in line this morning were Beckie Rineholt of Jackson Township and Emily Saare of Red Lion, who said they woke at 4 a.m. to get good seats.

“We’re both supporters of McCain and we wanted to see him in person,” Rineholt said.

Both are 17 and will be voting in November for the first time.

(I’ll leave you to go find their Myspace photos; I deleted my account last week.)

Yes, that’s ol’ John McCain, attracting the teenyboppers from all parts of York County. Reinholt, the story notes, “said she thinks he is the candidate more likely to keep taxes down.” Exactly what taxes for jobs 18-year-olds have will John McCain be lowering in the near future?

    It’s totally just like Beatlemania but for a right-wing version of John Lennon’s disinterred corpse!

    That was very rude. I’m sure John Lennon’s corpse is much more youthful and lively than John McCain.
