There’s no earthly reason why the Obama campaign couldn’t have gotten something out on the Paris Hilton rebuttal video first, after all (Bolding mine.):

John McCain’s mouthpiece has responded to Paris Hilton’s stinging retort — but he’s not attacking Hiltie!

In the unkindest cut of all, McCain’s spokesperson Tucker Bounds tells TMZ that on the subject of energy, Paris is deeper than Barack. He says, “Sounds like Paris is taking the ‘All of the Above’ energy approach that John McCain has advocated — both alternatives and drilling. Perhaps the reality is that Paris has a more substantive energy plan than Barack Obama.“

God knows that Ms. Hilton has a better plan than Speaker Pelosi. For that matter, I believe that she’s actually eligible for that job – no, don’t dismiss that immediately, ye Democrats. Just how happy are you with Nancy, these days?

PS: Oh, smile, lurkers. It’s not our fault that Obama’s running a silly campaign, or that he’s got the audacity of overweening pride at this point, or even that he’s been our personal pinata for the last week or so. I mean, you had your chance to nominate somebody more… substantial.

(pause)

Well, technically, you still have it, but taking advantage of that chance would be the smart thing to do, so of course the Democrats won’t even try.
