[George W. Bush]

During the Bikini Walk of the candidates, McStain has a strange gait, no movement of his arms.

Watching him, I almost wonder if he's had a minor stroke. It's quite noticable. He looks impaired. This is consistent with many other signs of aging with him, something very noticable in the last two years. It's not just physical, his emotional responses are, well, not the old McStain. He's just off.

He doesn't have that quality of aging well like Ronald Reagan did.

Is this the “live” thread??

McCain was horribly abused physically as a POW in VietNam. For six years he was beaten each day and had his broken leg or arm heal in a crooked fashion. ( I can’t remember all the details of his injuries...)

I’m a great admirer of the MAN John McCain is...but as a politician he’s a nut job. His second wife, Cindy is REAL scary looking in her pink suit, the only one she has.

I count five red ties. I think Mitt's went best with complexion. His shirt was white, his collar crisp, his business suit a well-cut classic.

Sartorial points for Mitt. I guess you'd expect that from a top-notch CEO.

His arms were broken by his captors when he was a prisoner of war~~~~~~~~~~
