Geez.. watching mccain is so damned embarrassing
I hope we NEVER have to watch another speech after his concession speech..

Watching him in Nevada tonight is like watching Grandpa eat with his hands at a 5 star restaurant, and then taking a shit in the planter in the foyer on the way out..

2. Hopefully he doesn't bother with a concession speech. They are overrated.

7. His whole, "Fight! Fight for this country!....
Edited on Mon Nov-03-08 11:58 PM by TwoSparkles
...fight...FIGHT!...for what is right...FIGHT! We never give up...FIGHT!...FIGHT FOR....."

is just so awful.

He's so rigid and constrained...like the Tin Man on the Wizard of Oz. His body barely
moves and his facial expressions seem frozen, but he screams this ten-minute, "FIIIIIGGGHT...."
diatribe--as if someone is squeezing his big toe in a vice, under the podium.

It's the most God-awful thing I've ever seen.

10. and he rocks on his feet every time he splats out "FIGHT"
I think America is tired of "fighting"... remember, that;s the way HRC started out her campaign.. "experienced FIGHTER"..

People are waaaaay past ready for calm, reasoned dialogue..

ask any mother of small kids how a houseful of "fight fight fight" works out:eyes:

4. He'll probably show up on Letterman one more time



... then that will be the last we will see of him. Even though McLame cancelled
out on Dave in favor of Couric, Dave still admires McLame for his military service.

5. I'm laughing so hard...
...I can barely type.

I had my husband read your post, and he started laughing too.

That's funny stuff. It's funny because it's so true.

6. It's striking the difference. I saw Obama's final speech at Manassas, VA where estimates of
about 100,000 people were bandied about and he gave one of his greatest speeches.

Now, here's McCain in a puny place in Henderson, NV with only about 500 people.

Geez.
