    This is a deep question for me. as I believe it's not over Till God, says it over here on earth. Mr.McCain does look very tired and worn out, But his wisdom is still working . And we need a gentlemen, and a wise man on this Job and he is known to be able to work with democrats, so they must respect him. We are so divided right now..and divided we fall .But Democrats and Republicans coming together, would make a big difference, in this world.So, We all just need to pray for the best man to get the Job as President of the Untied States. Whomever that may be.

    Yes he can. If he runs against Hillary, the Evangelicals will vote against her and McCain will get the Evengelical, Moderate, and Independent voters. Hillary will only have the hard core Dem voter.

    His chances look bleaker vs. Obama. Both candidates chase moderates and independents and Obama has stated a desire to chase Evangelical voters and Republicans as well.

    No, but the democrats keep acting like their running against him. That's just wishful thinking on their part. With Fred Thompson out of the race, Mitt Romney is the next conservative in line. McCain is way to liberal and there is no difference between Hillary and him. His age is definitely a factor. He's no Ronald Reagan. He voted against Bush's tax cuts, and tried to give amnesty to illegals in his bill with Kennedy.

    He's younger than Reagan was, and Reagan won and served as president for 2 terms.

    He could win. I agree he is old, but look at the choices.

    He's too old....plus don't forget that he was tortured for 5 years as a POW...that will take some years out of his life expectancy.

    And he's got skin cancer.

    I'm not concerned about his age, I'm concerned about the major 180 he did from being one of GWB's biggest opponents to being one of biggest supporters. That one act flushed all of his integrity right down the crapper.
