I mean can't he shut up?

Barack Obama is the president. John McCain is not the president. I sense that he still does not yet grasp that.

1. I know. Clicked on MTP and immediately went elsewhere.
WTF CARES what McCain has to say about anything? He is a former candidate for President who is now just 1 out of 100 Senators and usually has nothing new or interesting to add to any discussion.

I waited for Schumer who basically said we needed to have time to judge the stimulus, which I don't disagree with. Nothing substantial as far as healthcare goes.

2. Schumer is another regular Sunday morning blowhard
Another one who seems to have a special attraction to the camera.

10. Schumer is a liberal democrat. Is it a bad thing that he is on TV?
I thought it was a good thing.

3. He really should get co-host status on MTP.

4. Just wait until Sarah frees herself from the oppressive chains of governorship.

5. he's never met a camera he didn't like
He only hangs out with the most elite journalists. Invites them over for BBQs. He's had a few biographies ghostwritten and goes on every show to promote them. Guest starred in The Wedding Crashers, 24, hosted Saturday Night Live, etc etc. He's a limelight seeker and has burned to be a celebrity for a long time. That's the irony in his ad last year about Obama being a celebrity, because that's everything McCain ever wanted and it came so easily to a guy who didn't have to sell and promote himself like a car salesman to get people to notice.

6. Take it from an almost lifelong Arizonan--he's a media whore of the first order.

Sometimes I think he and Sheriff Joe Arpaio are in a competition for biggest MW and the competition is neck-and-neck.

BTW--don't think you won't see more of him--I swear he will run for Prez again. Bookmark this thread.

7. In fairness, McCain was on the talk shows a lot before he ran

11. But hasn't he been running for president for about a couple of decades?
I can't remember a time when he wasn't running.

8. Thankfully I have noticed that his pal Lieberman hasn't been on
Edited on Sun Jul-12-09 05:07 PM by Kingofalldems
a whole lot lately. Like someone else, he claims to be a Democrat yet endorsed and campaigned for McCain.
