Open Thread: Wordling Campaign Speeches: Write Your Best Caption

A reader last week mentioned this “Wordling Political Speeches” as a NYTimes lesson plan, so I Wordled McCain’s stump speech in Colorado this week.
I thought I’d have fun with it by turning it into an open thread for readers to play with.
Here are the rules:
Write your own caption in the comment thread, based only on words in the image (click image for larger view). I’ll select the winner and add the caption, with credit, in a couple days.
Example:
“Applause: McCain people going Obama.”
There are zingers galore in here, but I hope you’ll have fun with them, so I’ll leave the pickings to you. Please lighten your day and ours with a laugh.
[Update: And the winner is: one very creative Vincent Robleto, whose Kerblotto blog screams "Subscribe" for its verbal and graphic wit and creativity. Really, check it out. (And Vince, I can only imagine how honored you must feel, considering the vast field of competition you edged out for this award.
) Thanks for playing to both you, Diane, and the thousands of others!]

Now, now. He’s a maverick. When he cuts those earmarks – all 18 billion of them – things will improve. (Don’t mention the trillions in debt.)
