2. dude's heavily medicated
honestly, how can ANYONE feel good about him "leading" our country! He's like Reagan Circa '86 - scary... I don't want this man anywhere near the Oval Office making executive decisions on military matters - oh who am I kidding! They (GOP shadow figures) will run the White House and just run things by him while he's getting cared to by his medical staff...

This has to be a wash of an election, or they prop up someone else and he withdraws... painful...

7. I thought the same thing - slurring his words
and he looked puffier then he normally does.

21. my first thought too, everytime he's being interviewed he sounds drugged/stoned.
I'm wondering if he's on meds to keep his temper in check or something else.

13. someone posted on DU about thinking he's showing signs of dementia
I think it was in the context of McCain not actually being the nominee this fall, but in any case, he's not looking good.

6. Hard to believe it was VIEIRA
That was the one that asked the most pointed issue oriented question of the campaign so far.

8. McCain better PRAY that Obama doesn't take him up on his invitation
to appear together at Town Halls "to compare" the two. Yikes! That would be Must See Tee Vee.

11. McCain came off as "not all there"
like he was on medication or something. No fire in his speech at all--does he even believe in the things he espouses?

12. was this the program where he slipped and said Iraq/Pakistan border
or was that another program? Saw it on a KO clip. If he was this slurred no wonder.

18. .
A reporter who asks question that go beyond the surface and that are unexpected for McCain, someone who takes the interview apart to highlight the ridiculous non-answers (and lies) and it's so clear how weak McCain really is. Sadly, that seems to be the exception.
Seriously, he doesn't seem to be fit for the Presidency. Experience is worthless if you can barely remember the lessons from the past for your decision making, if you lack the knowledge and intelligence to deal with the current problems and if you are mentally in such a poor state.

23. This debacle of an interview is just more proof that the repukes will pull something
between now and their convention to make sure this loser isn't their nominee. Something will happen to get this relic of uselessness out of the way so they can infuse some enthusiasm behind a candidate that's not a complete embarrassment to both their party and the entire electoral system.

24. Getting your ass handed to you by Meredith Vieira. Not good.
But I guess after hosting that millionaire show she's picking up her street cred.

25. The somnolent candidate
Really unbelievable how unconvincing he sounds. Is he trying? Does he care? He has no credibility and Vieira ripped him effortlessly.

28. Let's not forget: about 299 of those 300 advisors have come out AGAINST McCain's plan.
I can't believe he's still spouting that lie.

30. Did he say "hybrid fuels"? Like Cenk said "Wakey, wakey, eggs and bakey!"
When Obama debates that muttering fool he is gonna be like Steven Seagal in his movies, never taking a single scratch and totally finishing his opposition...

But I am still a little queasy, just can't imagine the repubs sitting by watching this and going "OK, we'll rely on election fraud alone...". I could see the man with the magic underwear waiting to replace mcrust...

35. wow!!!! how did this interview NOT get covered elsewhere?
oops....silly question

same reason the McCain surge/anbar lie is going to get ignored everywhere but on certain MSNBC shows

and he sure did look severely downed out

has anyone here done a thread on exactly WHAT meds he's on, the combined side effects of said meds?

Maybe Olbermann played a small clip of it? I'm not sure.

37. credit to you for finding it....those other ones from TYT are also excellent
I was PISSED when they left Sirius.

I wonder if Olbermann has seen that, because McCain is seriously sedated in that segment, and his med situation needs to be explored

he's definitely a Sybil, and I don't mean Claudius' oracle

somebody should start a med thread

40. yes, but I still have sirius.....waiting for the LONGEST merger holdup in history
to conclude

how long have they been stalling on this?

NAB has spent how much money trying to stop it

XM/Sirius have spent around $100 million so far, trying to do this.

hint to government: it's a PAY service. not the public airways. this is a perfect example of big money fighting BIG money: influence peddling/pandering at its most egregious

44. The Master Pubs gonna yank his ass off the stage...or....they throwing him under the Tank...
let him drown and move on to 2012...he is a lost cause....espec when pitted against Obamas brains/charisma/charm/wit/leadership skills

all of McLimp's experience was focused on Booze, Bimbos, and Bombs....especially the Bimbos...they experienced him plenty
