Letterman brings up Liddy – to McCain

Going where the mainstream media hasn’t, and to McCain’s face in his “make-up appearance,” David Letterman brought up McCain’s association with G. Gordon Liddy:
“Did you not have a relationship with Gordon Liddy?” asked the host.

”Um, I've met him, uh, you know, I mean, um ...” began McCain.

”Didn’t you attend a fundraiser at his house?” asked Letterman.

“That’s,” sputtered McCain, looking trapped. “That’s, what ... Is ...”

Supposedly, before the cut to commercial, Schmuck Talk Express™ has the total deer in the headlights look.

Will Obama ask for copies?

Speaking of that, there’s video at the link.

"I object, your honor!" shouted Paul Shaffer, Letterman's band leader, only after several seconds of McCain looking like a deer in a car's headlights.

Letterman isn’t Jay Leno when he has politicians on. McCain was an idiot for blowing him off when he about to “suspend” his campaign late last month.
