Play from 0:00[0:00]" Good morning for me summer vacation week is at hand and the seemingly endless wait for this break always reminds me of a guy I met at a cocktail party can locate some years ago. He was some sort of college professor I think he might even have been a Nobel prize winner but he was dumber than a fence post. We chatted briefly Annie asked me how long I was down four well I said I'm heading back tomorrow because -- two weeks were up. Two weeks he said completely baffled why just two weeks. At this point his alarm light stepped in because two weeks is all he'd get steer she explained but professor and Nobel then only halfway through he -- four month summer break couldn't comprehend it. I heard him muttering two weeks over and over as she led him away. Anyway I will not bore you with a description of what I have planned for next week because there's nothing more boring than listening to some -- talk about the golf he's going to play quite badly by the way. And the Clancy's going to eat instead. You're a few things I can assure you I will not be -- and during my week off. I will not be paying the slightest attention to the presidential race can -- be candid about this. Anyone with a polls has been following it closely it's likely decided what they're going to do it's -- pretty clear choice. And the election will likely be decided by folks who haven't been paying attention. They are likely to make that call by watching at least one of the debates in October and almost nothing that happens between now and then -- make any difference to anyone. But the junkies and the partisans. Know I'm taking a break from. And I -- people paying attention to anything happening on Beacon Hill with the budget we all know it's a disaster. And the only disaster I'm focusing on next week is my game all the T. And finally. Forgive me beloved colleagues but I will not be listening to traffic on the threes. Unless there's gridlock between me and the fridge it's not relevant for the next week. CU in August."

[16:38]..." Yeah well it does but I got to -- I think Senator McCain was right by raising these doubts about Senator Obama there on with our minds the American people that's why. When he went on this big foreign trip. You don't it was a governor that it came talked about judgment what does it say about somebody's judgment you can go to Barack and and not come out and credit to surge. For the stabilization of Iraq and for putting this in place in a place where we can win the conflict is because Senator Obama has demonstrated such appalling judgment. He goes to Europe and does a big rally in Germany as if he's running for president of the United states of Europe not -- United States of America. It's these kind of judgment questions that Senator McCain was right to raise because there'd -- judgment questions they're sitting on the minds of Americans but it's not enough I grant you that. He's got to do several other things he's got to work he's got a he's got to point out that there is no there there when it comes to senator Obama's rhetoric he's running on an empty. You know empty rhetoric if if Walter Mondale had not used up the slogan where's the beef it would be a good one for Senator McCain right. And but Senator McCain needs to do to positive things.
