More Bad Blood Between Romney and McCain?

I’m told that the Romney campaign and the McCain campaign spoke tonight to arrange a time for McCain to give his concession and to allow Mitt Romney his opportunity to give the victory speech. I am told by a source sympathetic to McCain that after making the arrangement, Romney went ahead and spoke at the same time McCain was giving his, bumping him off the airwaves.

Jonah noticed the timing.

The words “no dignity, no class, and no couth” are reverberating around the McCain camp tonight.

Well, Mr. McCain ought to know about that subject. What with all the sneering comments he made and juvenile snickering he did in the debate before NH, he knows full well what it means to be a major league jerk. He's been known for that side of his temperament for years.

Besides, the margin in MI, last I checked, was hovering around 9-10%. Mr. McCain doesn't take defeat well so, I'm not surprised that this story is circulating. Who knows if its even true? Regardless, its definitely sour grapes.

You STILL think they're working together? I told you that was a RIDICULOUS hypothesis.

Maybe McCain will have one of those famous temper tantrums. You just know McCain hangs on to all that bile. Remember SC 2000?

Mucho kudos to Mitt.

Yep, McCain was running late and had Leiberman introducing him, and Romney did not wait around for McCain to bump him out of the time slot.

Maybe this will be the thing that sets McCain off — we’ve all been waiting for him to get angry, he’s very quick to perceive major slights that never seem to be his fault.

McCain stepped on Huckabee’s concession speech.

... although I’ll agree that I almost always associate “no dignity, no class and no couth (sic)” with the McCain camp.
