has McSame had a stroke or is he losing the will to fight?
I saw him today on tv (Keith O, right now) and he looks like half his face is sagging.

Might this be another reason he wants to avoid a debate?

1. He wants to rest. He's 71, and a 3 time cancer patient. Plus the bottom is falling out of the U.S.
Thanks to Republicans like him.

7. 72?? Damn. Meanwhile the woodpecker running with him....
is going to get special treatment during HER debate because she doesn't know sh*t and couldn't debate a child and win.

I've often wondered... what happens if McCain DIES before the election? Does Ms. Woodpecker run for president?????

2. that was floated earlier today and there's no way if he had a stroke
he'd be giving a news conference

I'm leaning toward the "bad Botox reaction" explanation

10. don't think so
Edited on Wed Sep-24-08 09:21 PM by MissWaverly
I saw a photo of him today where his right eye was focused and his left eye looked like it was not looking in the same direction as his right eye. So it's not just his facial muscles sagging as in Bell Palsy but something involving the cornea too.

Go over to TPM and see what you think, the photo is there.

8. One eye is bigger than the other. The plane crash must have really done
some damage. :dem:
