McCain is batshit crazy
Did you all see him on This Week today? My GOD. Talk about handing the country over to the corporations and warmongers - he'd be exactly like Bush, but instead of running up the huge deficits to finance the tax cuts to the wealthy he'd cut every spending program in the country that benefits the middle class and the poor. Twice he rambled identical talking points about cutting corporate taxes, maintaining the Bush tax cuts, and giving corporations more writeoffs on depreciation.

And he smiled when he talked about attacking Iran. The sick fucker smiled.

I've said that if Hillary wins the nomination by chicanery with the FL/MI delegates I'd stay home this November. Now I'll be her most rabid supporter if she gets the nomination because this guy is absolutely fucking NUTS. Scary crazy. I'm Obama's biggest supporter but if this party doesn't come together in the fall we'll be screwed by someone even more dangerous than Bush.

1. When I see or hear McCain these days, I wonder if he has the stamina to
get through the hour, nevermind an intensive general election campaign through next November.

He looks beaten up and he sounds exhausted.

Yet he does seem to come to life at the hint of war.

Dangerous choice for our country's future.

Go, Democrats.

2. Yep, he appears insane.
Smiling at inapproprite times and talking like he's medicated. Just what the country needs: another lunatic.

3. He's one scary guy. Keep a close watch on his VP pick, there's a more than even possibility
that Sen. McCain's health will interfere with his POTUS duties, and the VP is going to be whom the party chooses as the actual president. Kind of like Cheney now.

4. Nothing More Frightening Than McCain's Smile
Glad I'm not the only one that noticed that. And I though *'s snicker was bad.

5. The D candidate, regardless of whom it is, needs to be
supported, and we HAVE to get more #'s in both Houses of Congress, if we even hope to stop the destruction of this nation.

McCain is, from what I see, a sacrificial goat; I'm in Nebraska, and the R's out here think he's worse that bush!

7. He doesn't come across well at all
They can put McCain in a Superman costume on the top of the Empire State Building in a still shot but the minute he moves or talks he's Tim Conway in a World's Oldest Man skit. The sound of his voice puts hyperactive coke-drinking 4 yr olds to sleep, when he narrows his eyes he looks less like John Wayne staring down the baddies and more like somebody who misplaced his glasses*, and his smile looks like what a kid draws on a frosty windowpane. This is not a warm guy, this is not Mr. Neighborhood, this is not somebody Americans want to see on their T.V. every damn day. He represents the past, physically as well as philosophically, and every time he opens his mouth (100 yrs of war! Tax cuts...they're Grrreat! Torture could be a good thing!) puts him farther away from the Top Job.

Thank God.

*Check the top of your head.
