McCain campaign events need a droopy-drawers rule

Several of the eight young men standing behind the stage in Goffstown, N.H, this morning with M-A-V-E-R-I-C-K spelled on their chests had a droopy drawers problem.

The young man sporting the giant "C" on his chest was a particular offender, with his pants hanging so low at least four inches of his boxer shorts were visible as speakers introduced John McCain.

They got a special introduction from Fergus Cullen, chairman of the New Hampshire GOP, who called them the "gentlemen who forgot your shirts today."

Of course, McCain's event was borrowing their ice rink at St. Anselm College, so maybe this was payback.
