McCain Campaign Tastes Plagiarized Recipes

Cindy McCain's kitchen looked a lot like The Food Network's to one eagle-eyed website visitor, who spotted lots of similarities between recipes published on both sites.

Maybe John McCain's spouse is a little different than most people worth millions, and enjoys the challenge of juggling pots, pans, and ingredients. Her resource for good old family recipes, published on the McCain campaign website, had a heaping helping of something else, namely theft.

The The lame explanation for this, well, there isn't an explanation. It's being blamed on some "low-level unpaid staff" person, meaning whichever volunteer was asked by the campaign to find recipes for the website and slap Mrs. McCain's name on them has been thrown under the proverbial campaign bus.

Maybe this doesn't seem like a big deal to people; we're sure the man who would be President isn't losing any sleep over this. We're pretty certain if the potential First Lady really did publish a cookbook, and someone looted it to spiff up a cooking website, she and her hubby wouldn't accept some BS excuse about a lowly functionary stealing it without anyone's knowledge.
