Smooth Talker News from Zanoni, Missouri reports that a senior adviser in the McCain campaign organization, who asked that his name not be used to protect his livelihood, told reporter Missy Kisswell that McCain is thinking about moving the Republican Convention to New Orleans from Minnesota, which, he said, "since Jesse Ventura is out, really doesn't have much going on besides Garrison Keillor, and he's a Democrat." He said that as soon as FEMA lights turn green, the Superdome would be fitted out with the usual banners and champagne fountains. He said, "It's up to John, of course, but right now he thinks it's a helluva good way to catch the media, which inexplicably has begun giving equal time to the Obama campaign."

The adviser also said, after reiterating that the information was really, really off the record, that contrary to how Rick Davis, McCain's campaign manager is now spinning it, Cindy McCain is seriously bent out of shape over her husband's choice of the foxy Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. The senior advisor said that shouting was heard from the back of the Straight Talk Express on the night the announcement was made. Snippets of the shouting included ". . . if you . . . with her . . . your allowance . . . thousand a day . . ."

Smooth Talker News will have an update on this item just as soon as this afternoon's pizza sauce canning is finished and Missy has cleaned up the kitchen.
