MCCAIN'S DAY IN CANADA

From NBC/NJ's Adam Aigner-Treworgy

OTTAWA, Canada -- In an allegedly non-political visit to the Economic Club of Canada today, McCain defended the North American Free Trade Agreement and notably avoided any talk of his opponent.

Speaking over lunch, McCain lauded NAFTA as the creator of 25 million jobs in the United States and more than 4 million jobs here in Canada, but rather than explicitly attacking Obama over his desire to renegotiate the agreement -- as he has done for months when speaking on the topic -- today McCain merely nodded in his direction.

Did we suddenly get the right to vote? What's the use of 'campaigning' here? Why try to convince us? From what I have read / heard he wouldn't get my vote either way.

NAFTA should be renegotiated, IMO

McCain should stay in the States, thank you very much.

According to media accounts he asked for an invitation and he received one . If this is not campaigning then what do we call it ?.

It was done to campaign without actually announcing it is a campaign speech. Just like putting your name on ANY bill that is important and coming to vote without actually being there as the bill is being introduced or worked upon in the committee.

McCain may be breaking the law!

McCain arrived aboard his chartered campaign jet, yet told reporters at a news conference, "this is not a political campaign trip." The senator added he didn't feel it was appropriate to have the government to pay "while I am the nominee of my party."


McCain's schedule also included mention of an unspecified "finance event." While that is customarily campaign jargon for a fundraiser, foreigners may not donate to U.S. candidates, and one aide was quoted in advance as saying that money from $100-per-person event would simply defray the cost of the earlier luncheon.

Bush all over again!!
Lies, lies and more lies!!
