Coffee Talk

 I may be in a completely different league from John McCain, but I can certainly identify with his frustration with the media’s bias in his bid for that top job. 

In fact, most people with some years in the corporate world will understand: only those select few get noticed, and they get all the pats on the back and the promotions! It is as if the rest of the employees never tried hard enough.  Goodness knows if they even exist in the eyes of the management. 

It is not how intelligent, reliable, hardworking, capable or diligent - or even good-looking for that matter - those blue-eyed boys, or gals, are.  Some of them don’t even speak properly, for goodness sake.  It’s something else, presence perhaps?  But don’t ask me.  I was never one of them. 

At least, McCain is not at a loss like the rest of us are.  He knows what to do to garner media exposure, and he has enjoyed his fair share of attention from it.  It’s probably only a matter of fine-tuning those tactics to steal the thunder back from the media darling that Barack Obama is today.
