Impossible as it may seem, John McCain has managed to continue his string of bad, tone-deaf, and just plain unfortunate news events. At the rate these bad items are occurring, I can only only come up with three possible explanations: that there is a God, who desperately wants John McCain to lose; that Barack Obama was brilliant enough to have planted a mole deep inside McCain's campaign back when McCain was running in last place; or that McCain's famous superstitions are causing him to lose it.
The latest incident: The "Straight Talk Express" caused a car accident today in Miami.
It all happened at the intersection of Biscayne Blvd & NE 54th Street in Miami around 4:00 pm. The Straight talk express appeared to be heading south on the main Biscayne Blvd corridor and somehow ended up hitting a blue Ford Windstar Minivan.
Luckily, nobody was injured in the accident, but the minivan is pretty smashed up and might be totaled.
It looks like the bus driver decided to merge to the right without checking his blind spot.
There are additional pictures and even a video posted at this link.

UPDATE:
Is this a picture of the Straight Talk Express? McCain could be hoping to fool people into thinking he's Barack Obama, then hitting enough of them to swing Florida...

UPDATE x2:
McCain's team might have been trying to make a bold statement about his healthcare policy-- because they managed to smash their bus into a vehicle driven by a handicapped person. GREAT JOB, GUYS!
(h/t to David Kroning for pointing out the handicapped placard in the minivan, which I totally missed.)
