PANAMA CITY, Fla. — Not long ago, reporters traveling with Sen. John McCain got this mysterious message from a campaign staffer, with no other details:
“„if you are traveling with us on tuesday, you will need to wear all cotton clothing (no blazers or suits) as well as flat closed-toe shoes
We only get our schedule a day or two in advance. The requirement for cotton clothing, which is well-known for its breath-ability, would indicate we will be going somewhere hot — potentially hot enough to melt synthetic fabrics — where things may or may not fall on your feet or get into your footwear. Maybe we’re going to a volcano, or an iron-smelting plant. This has led to rampant speculation among the traveling press corps. The most provocative — and fun — suggestion: Sturgis Bike Week in South Dakota, which gets underway this weekend.
Any guesses where you think we are headed?
