What a maverick!

Taking a page from the Bush playbook, McSame says his townhall meeting will include Democrats, Republicans and Independents, but in actuality audience members were all specially-nvited guests and supporters.

Fun fact: Faux News, which sponsored the event, later issued a 'clarification' on air that McCain misled the public.

Even better: Howard Dean's statement:

"Once again John McCain's campaign is trying to mislead the American people. Senator McCain should understand that after seven years of a President who has divided Americans and pursued a scorched earth policy full of misleading propaganda campaigns, we need a leader who understands he is the President for all Americans not just his supporters. Copying the Bush campaign model of stacking events with his prescreened supporters is not the transparency Americans are looking for. If that is Senator McCain's idea of straight talk, the American people are in for a long and disappointing campaign season."
