Barack the Dad...

Barack Obama spent part of Halloween attending a party with his family. When he felt photographers were getting a bit too close to them, he asked them to back off.

John McCain, who doesn't let anything slide, will probably find in this episode something about which he can shrilly caw through the next 24-hour news cycle, such as telling the press what a good friend to them he is and that he'd never say such a thing as "back off" to anyone.

Meanwhile, Governor Palin will doubtless be fed some inane tagline from her handlers that she can repeat ad nauseam, which will make some insipid connection between trick-or-treat and tax-or-terrorize, or something equally illogical.

But both of them should instead just shut up and respect who they're seeing: Barack the Dad.
