Has McCain done us a favor?

. . . . . by showing signs of dementia before the election?

“The thought of his being president sends a cold chill down my spine,” Sen. Thad Cochran (R-Miss.), also a senior member of the Appropriations panel, told the Boston Globe recently. “He is erratic. He is hotheaded. He loses his temper and he worries me.”

    All these links and NOT ONE backs up your premise. It's true that Thad Cochran said that about McCain - but he still endorsed him.

    You need a quick refresher course in prepositions and conjunctions.

    Like if, or, and but.

    Why have you so completely rejected the free education this country has offered to you??

    Don't forget to vote on Nov 5th!

    Wow one youtube and 3 far left sites. Way to be consistent if inaccurate and biased.

    McCain with dementia is still better than someone who listened to Racism for 20 years and didn't know it.

    McCain with dementia is still better than someone whose political career began in an admitted terrorists living room.

    Sorry but I just don't buy it. John McCain any day

    The man who claims to know so much about the military is very confused

    Candidates spend a lot of time talking, and they all misspeak sometimes. But did anyone else notice this, from Wednesday's much-covered McCain-Palin Town Hall event in Grand Rapids, Mich., where Palin answered questions from people in the audience? McCain said this near the end of the clip below, as he's talking up Palin's foreign policy/national security credentials:

    "I also know, if I might remind you, that she is commander of the Alaska National Guard. In fact, you may know that on Sept. 11 a large contingent of the Alaska Guard deployed to Iraq and her son happened to be one of them. So I think she understands our national security challenges..."

    The ceremony Palin attended at Fort Wainwright last week didn't involve the Alaska National Guard. Palin's son is in the Army, and his unit - 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division - deployed to Iraq.

    He DOES seem to be crumbling before our very eyes. I mean this with actually a modicum of seriousness.

    A candidate who has made as many gaffes, blunders, and who appears so unclear and befuddled as often as he has...... i don't know, I think, politics aside, he may really be losing it and Alzheimer's seems an accurate preliminary diagnosis.

    Which would leave the Queen of moose burgers left, should the old man lose it in office....

    WE HAVE GOT TO ELECT OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Anything else is going to dump this country into the toilet. We can't let that happen.

    Thad Cochran is one of the Senators McCain has gone up against, this is just Cochran spewing his frustrations but he has no credibility

    Real thinking people would never vote for McCain because they know he speaks non-sense.

    Real americans wouldn't vote for McCain cause they know this man is not right for this country or any country for that matter.

  • republicans with a modicum of intelligence will not vote for mccain, mark my words. they WILL put country before party. they know mccain would be a disaster as president

  • 1 decade ago

    Well, I think the same should be said for Obama. "Ohhh, I can read a speech off a moniter, that means I can be president, dur, dur!"
