A question about McCain's health: Anyone else notice...
... his left hand shaking so badly that he keeps putting it in his pocket?

I just saw it again in a CNN clip they keep rerunning.

Has he always had this problem (as a result of his POW beatings), or is this
something new?

Does anyone know?

Thanks in advance!

1. hmmm
There was a point in Bush's presidency where he did the same thing. We attributed it to alcoholism.

3. So with any possibility of a health problem it really is critical who this old...
buzzard names as his VP... I don't think that there is any way in hell that the Dems will loose in November, but if by some strange happening they did, and McCain were to name someone like Jeb Bush as his VP... Yikes, just scared the crap outta myself with this post.

6. It's very important, because he has a much better chance of being elected
than most around here think, even without stealing it, which remains a distinct possibility since our "leaders" chose to ignore the theft of the last two elections.

The possibility of Jeb's being nominated for vice-president has worried me for some time. If he is, Katie, bar the door!, it's going to be stolen, and the talking heads will inform us that when the public closed the curtain on the voting booth, they couldn't bring themselves to vote for a woman or vote for an African American, as the case may be.

7. Your spot on... And you can bet that Rove will be involved with this election...

before long, to try and make certain that a McCain Presidency comes to pass. I believe that the Bush Administration has been bank rolling McCain as well... Just my opinion of course, but how else would he still have funding to stay in this race?
