McCain's temper really is an issue.

I don't want a guy in the white house, operating that nuke-switch, who has shown so obvious signs of anger management issues. For the same
reason I wouldn't want a 20 year old man to be commander in chief. Who knows, he might wake up one morning and be pissed about the weather, and decide to shoot missles at someone to cool off.

1. A bad temper only matters if you're a Democrat.........

remember the meme about Al Gore being "angry" and "unhinged". Howard Dean was rightfully upset with the Bush administration, and he was "angry and unhinged".

2. I've said all along: guys are hormonal 30 days each month

versus my two.

3. It will be an issue, once that book comes out

It will be a major issue.

4. That "Batshit Crazy Enough to Push the Button" bullshit worked for Reagan.

McCain does have a temper, and he does hold a grudge.

It's gonna be interesting how the GOP will spin that temper into something positive...and bet that they will try to do just that.
