UK paper claims McCain has been making fun of Palin in private.

Rawstory:

In a leaked message written by the British ambassador to Washington, the envoy claims that McCain has been "telling friends in recent weeks that Palin is even more trouble than a pitbull," according to a report Wednesday.

In a telegram leaked to the Guardian, Sir Nigel Sheinwald, the British ambassador to Washington, says that McCain has privately been likening Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin to a pitbull."In one joke doing the rounds, the Republican presidential candidate has been asking friends: what the difference is between Sarah Palin and a pitbull?" the paper says.

"The friendly canine eventually lets go, is the McCain punchline."

In examining McCain's discomfort with his now widely-panned running made, the Guardian also noted his "awkward body language between them during his concession speech in Phoenix, Arizona."
