It gets better than that. McCain didn't even know he wasn't there.
McCAIN (after the rally) "You just can't trust these trades people any more. Back in my day when the plumber aid he'd be there on time, by God, he was there. But nowadays no one cares about a damn thing. HEY...tell those kids to get off my lawn. This is private property."
Listen to the groans, and then 'crickets' after McCain says: "Joe is with us today". It sucked all the life out of the rally.
