It was probably more the scotch and Biden's birthday than anything McCain has done (oh, and the Trump comment), but yeah. For...years now, there's a good chance the press will use a quote from him on any political subject and it makes me wonder who is voting for him. Kudos for apparently sucking it up as a POW. But that doesn't make you qualified for...well, anything, really. The day he announced Palin as his running mate, I seriously considered voting for him. But he had far too many days between that day and Election Day, where he had a chance to say things to think "Yeah...No. " At the time I had a pretty good hunch Obama would fuck things up, but I knew McCain would fuck things up almost as much and I foolishly hoped 4 years of Obama would mean a lock for an (R) in '12.
But then the GOP ran the guy who couldn't beat McCain in '08. I held my nose and voted for him because some people I respected endorsed him and I knew how terrible Obama had been, but I wasn't real happy about it. I mean, not only was this guy not good enough to beat McCain, in a year where Obamacare was Obama's Kryptonite, the 'pubs decide "let's run the one guy they can say 'Obamacare was based on his plan for his state'"!?!?!?!? :bang:
