McCain looks like he will leave us soon

[UndertheOcean]

He does not look healthy at all.

[grantcart]

1. his speech is starting to deteriorate - hes approaching a semi babble

[The_Casual_Observer]

2. The German press says that McCain is in constant pain & that he can't

even comb his own hair.

Why is he doing this?

[Hippo_Tron]

4. He hasn't been able to comb his own hair since returning from Vietnam

Because they broke his arms several times and he can't lift them above his shoulders.

20. He hasn't been able to comb his hair for decades

it's not new.

[Cha]

3. Does that explain all the venom

that comes out of his mouth?

[Fleshdancer]

5. Faux news thinks so too

Apparently they were showing footage of McCain from the 2000 election and trying to pass it off as recent. Dan whatshisname on MSNBC was laughing his ass off about it tonight. :D

11. Dan Abrams

He called Faux on it? Terrific. Abrams is fantastic, right up there with KO and Rachel. His show is a blast to watch.

[Fleshdancer]

13. He called them on it!

This was the first time I watched his show and I loved it. The idiots over at faux used a clip of McCain from 2000, but missed the one poster flown across the screen that, when you screen cap it, clearly shows "McCain 2000" on it. :D

[DarthDem]

14. Awesome

I first caught Dan's show a few weeks ago when visiting my mom, a diehard MSNBC watcher. I told her I had no idea it was that good - - she said it almost always is.

7. I think he is looking for a way out....he gonna use his HEALTH, either physical or mental

as an excuse to Cut and Run....

Perhaps, the Pub Masters have spoken....??

[DarthDem]

12. Well . . .

Who are they going to find if he drops out? He did, after all, beat the rest of that sterling field they deployed this cycle. I doubt there's any dark conspiracy here. The man's simply exhausted, and looks it. Completely the opposite of presidential timber - - and it's only July 25.

[opihimoimoi]

16. Newt would love to jump in...Huckabee?, Mitt? Bauer?

[DarthDem]

17. Fine With Me

All utterly unelectable but Mitt, and he couldn't even beat McCane.

[comtec]

23. Romney couldnt beat mclame on the FUNDY vote...

but he's very good on the moderate vote.
The problem is that mittens speaks well, he's well educated, and he's not really extreme.
I'm very happy he ended up loosing because I could see him beating a weaker candidate, say Clinton.
My honest concern was that if hilary won, and Mittens won,, mittens would win!

Romney is much more neutral and sometimes even positive than anyone the reich has. I really hope he is not made their back up candidate or even the Vp choice. Their BASE of hateful white sheet wearing, knuckle dragging, zeil hailing, bible thumping, gun humping base H A T E him, however...and that's who votes in primaries. The most loyal partiests.

I admit, i'm a frothing at the mouth Dem (right now) and lefty. I used to be a moderate. Hell I would have voted for the ferrengi in 92 if I could have (17)... i've since grown up however and see perrot for the danger he was. And the end result was so much better for hte country, than 4 more years of papi *.


But Romney Vs Obama... That could be a real problem. If you are honest with yourself for a moment to think about it. he's also young and charismatic, and he didn't get nearly as bloodies in the primaries as Obama was.

[Just-plain-Kathy]

18. Knowing the Bushes held fund raisers for Romney...

I wouldn't be surprised if Romney (the corporate buy out king), becomes McCain's VP choice.

If this were a novel, I would say "they'll" get rid of McCain right after they steel the election for him.

[opihimoimoi]

26. Might be a POSSIBILITY THERE....holy fuck.....I hate to even imagine???

[Narkos]

8. I've been thinking the same thing

his appearance has really deteriorated in the last few months.

[Phx_Dem]

28. It could be from the stress and rigors of campaigning.

But if he's aging that fast during a campaign, can you imagine what he would look like by the end of his 2nd year in the White House? I shudder to think. Which is exactly why 70-somethings shouldn't be allowed to run for President. The job is just too stressful for someone that senior.

In McAsshole's case, there are a mchundred other reasons why he isn't suitable for the Presidency, age is just one.

9. RIGHT, wifey was saying yesterday the guy looks as if he'll drop dead any second

[Captain Angry]

10. Well, if it was a strategy to have him their nominee

so that he'd take the heat of the press for a while...

It wouldn't have mattered. The press were WAY too busy making up stuff about Obama to notice the Republicans had a nominee and therefore doing any research.

[anonymous171]

15. Nope. He'll suck it up on the campaign trail, but the media will cover for him.

The CBS thing is only the beginning.

[AtomicKitten]

19. A desiccated corpse looks more healthy.

[Iwillnevergiveup]

21. Thom Hartmann

was saying this morning he has felt for some time McCain will drop out.

[PatSeg]

22. He looks really, really bad

The campaign is taking its toll. I can't imagine him surviving a year or two in the White House. Every time I see him, I'm amazed at how fragile and sickly he looks.

[Disturbed]

24. The Bush Crime family wanted Mitt for Pres.

Now they are pushing Mitt for VP. Maybe hoping McLame will drop out before the convention or if he actually got elected that he would step down soon afterward.

[davidpdx]

25. What wouldn't surprise me is

They end up nominating Mormon Mit and put McCain on for VP.

[Skittles]

27. he has never looked healthy to me n/t
