Quiver Before Our Suspendered Overlord

John McCain tells us he's going to stand up to Vladimir Putin and chase bin Laden to the "gates of hell" and fight until who-knows-when in Iraq and so forth. But there is one tyrant on this earth who makes even McCain tremble? Larry King. Eric Kleefeld:

    Wolf Blitzer just reported that the campaign has cancelled a scheduled interview with Larry King due to an unfriendly segment last night on CNN - the segment we flagged last night where the network's Campbell Brown grilled McCain spokesperson Tucker bounds over Sarah Palin's lack of foreign policy experience.

Look, I'm afraid of Larry King myself. After his calming intonation dulls my senses, I fear being too lethargic to withstand his noogies and attempts at biting me with his dentures. (I know: eww!) Of course, I don't campaign for president as a mucho-macho muchacho, so it might not be the same thing.

P.S., I saw that thanks to John Aravosis.

Even though King had nothing to do with that interview.  Of course, the real reason is because his campaign is falling apart and even Larry King might notice that.

	But, pass it around.  This campaign has officially passed from joke territory into offensive territory.  McCain can't handle an interview with Larry King?  And he's gonna stare down Ahmadinejad?
