David Letterman More Egotistical With Less Reason Than Even Obama

This is Day Two of his snit fit over McCain’s “Late Show” cancellation. McCain, of course, decided that Wednesday night, in the face of an impending economic crisis, might not be a great time for him to be yukking it up with a late-night host. Letterman was peeved enough to bring noted McCain-basher Keith Olbermann on in McCain’s place. This is what Letterman had to say last night:

“Here’s how it works: You don’t come to see me? You don’t come to see me? Well, we might not see you on Inauguration Day,” Letterman said.

Letterman: The new crucible for Electoral College contenders. A McCain campaign spokesman was generous in her reaction, openly identifying Letterman’s show as “comedy.”

McCain spokeswoman Nicolle Wallace said the campaign “felt this wasn’t a night for comedy.”
