John McCain won’t use ABBA’s “Take a Chance on Me.”
ABBA ROCKS!
Anyway, it’s usually pretty weird when politicians try to hijack good music. And this would have been weirder than most.
Finally, my wife and I spent an evening watching the ABBA: The Definitive Collection DVD not too long ago, and thoroughly enjoyed it. What fun.

Abba??!! Damn, I always figured Murdoc for a ‘Bullet for My Valentine’ guy. I take it you and the little woman weren’t moshing off the couch into the kids or anything then? My pick for McCain’s theme song is Lynch Mob’s ‘She’s So Evil (But She’s Mine)’. Only Changed to ‘He’s So Evil (But He’s Ours)’; to suit the conservative wing of the party.

I kind of like the Erasure cover of this song, except that the singers are much less attractive!! ;)
