Apparently all that experience doesn't exactly lead to any knowledge.

2. McCain, he aren't nt

3. I have to be honest...given their job, hours, and countless abbreviations, it's easy to error. n/t

4. MAYBE to 'ordinary citizens,'

but NOT to those of use who live in and around DC, and whose lives are largely made up of politics and public policy (like a SENATOR!)

7. exactly.....!!!!!

Does a nurse or a doctor forget medical abbreviations? They would risk lose their license!

8. When working 60-80 hours per week on the campaign trail, candidates in both parties make errors.

To misspeak on one letter of an abbreviation because it happens to be another frequently used abbreviation is an easy mistake. Both are on candidates' minds right now...so his mouth got ahead of him on an abbreviation...Obama and everyone has done that. Let's focus on the real failures of McCain instead of grasping at any convenient argument.

real mistakes!

5. Who says that was an error?

I'm sure that, if he were to get into office, he would want to hold the firing of the FEC chair over the head as a threat ... if the chair didn't play nice with McSame, he'd find himself Gitmo'd ... and a lackey would be put in place ...

a babbling old fool. Sad but true.
