Hope = platitude?
Only a republican would stand there and say that. Who wants to be the person who campaigns on squashing the hopes and dreams of an electrified and motivated electorate? Keep talking there Mr. Straight-talk.
Platitude. Jesus Christ! There is nothing "dull or trite" about hope! Or even making a hopeful statement. He thinks that repeating the promise of a new day is trite? It dulls after repetition? Really?
The only thing stale, cliche & tired is McCain and his patronizing "my friends" doom and gloom and the talk of 100 year wars.
He refers to the promise of change and hope as platitude yet he turns around and steals a slogan by saying he was fired up and ready to go?
Please!
