Seamus is still quite obsessed with John McCain. He still loves looking at this picture and talking about Colin crying. He also keeps asking me where John McCain is. Here is our most recent conversation.
S: Mommy, where is John McCain?
Me: Washington DC
S: Oh, I love Washington DC. John McCain lost. Barack Obama won. But I like John McCain.
Me: Yes, I know.
S: Where is John McCain? Oh, Washington DC. Can we call him?
Me: (giggling, of couse) I don’t have his number Shea.
S: (sad) Ohhhh. (cheerful, with a big smile and a finger in the air) What about Barack Obama?
Me: Nope, don’t have his number either.
S: Ohhhh. Oh! But I do.
Me: Really?
S: Yeah. Uh…P S T. {Note: talk to preschool about his understanding of letters v numbers}
Me: Great!
S: Call him now, Mommy.
Me: Can’t, he’s busy.
S: Really?
Me: (glancing at the ever-present Fox News – and being saved) Yeah, see – he’s on TV right now.
S: Oh, ok. We’ll call him later.

That one is headed for the press corps for sure!
Don't tell him there's a main number for the White House, your phone bill would be ASTRONOMICAL! What about showing him the website?
