“‘Particularly since the shutdown, I’ve had a spate of e-mails and letters and phone calls saying, ‘Run for president again,” McCain told The Arizona Republic. ‘As you know, I’m seriously thinking about running for re-election to the Senate. But I think, in the words of the late Morris K. Udall, as far as my presidential ambitions are concerned, ‘The people have spoken — the bastards.””

“‘I can assure you, I don’t see it,’ said McCain, who will turn 80 in 2016. ‘It’s not on my radar.’”

I think his memory is fading.

“Tens” is not the same as “tons.”

Yeah. The same types (e.g., Chris Matthews) who goaded him into running the first time. Their entire motivation is that they just knew McCain would implode on the campaign trail. He was literally set up to lose.
