John McCain is apparently fielding a spate of e-mails and letters and phone calls from people who want him to run for president again.
But, the Republican senator from Arizona told the Arizona Republic that hes not really considering another run for the White House:
Particularly since the shutdown, Ive had a spate of e-mails and letters and phone calls saying, Run for president again, McCain told The Arizona Republic. As you know, Im 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 dont see it, said McCain, who will turn 80 in 2016. Its not on my radar.
On Monday, conservative blogger Allahpundit, of Hot Air, reacted by laughing off the idea that McCain is inundated with Run, John, run! requests....

"John McCain is apparently fielding a spate of e-mails and letters and phone calls from people who want him to run for president again." Sounds like Obama For America and the RNC are cranking up the phone banks.

What does he mean AGAIN? He didn’t run the first time. Just about all he did was to keep telling us that His opponent was a good person who we did not have to fear. McCain the islamoNazi enabler maybe. But McCain a candidate? No way, Jose. Get thee to a nursing home, preferably one with a good mental ward.

Yo McLame, you ain't British!

Don't I remember an Obama campaign ad that said
McCain doesn't know how to use a computer and doesn't know what email is?
In response to the attack McCain reminded us that Obama is a good man who we would be lucky to have as president.

“Tons of people?”
Really, John? Well, take until 2024 to think about it, then get back to us.

At approx 175 lb each, that would be about 12 people per ton.
Since ‘tons’ is plural we’ll double it.
25 people want McCain to run for president.
I’ll bet his Senate staff is larger than that.
