Props to Virginia high schooler Katelyn Halldorson who suspected that candidate John McCain’s visit to her school, his alma mater, was but a campaign photo-op, despite classes being interrupted and a student assembly being mandatory. McCain made jokes about his antics living on in the memories of his teachers and administrators, “now retired,” although what are the chances any are still living? When the opportunity for questions arose, the 16-year-old Halldorson asked the senator:
      “We were told that this isn’t a political event.
      So, what exactly is your purpose in being here?”
