Can we afford to have this loose cannon with his finger on the Nuclear Button?

[Mount Athos]

There is a long list of reasons conservatives wouldn't want him to be president.

[packrat35]

I would NEVER vote for McCain, no matter who he runs against. I have found him a total nutcase for years. I use him as a way of judging other people's intelligence. Anyone who thinks he is a good Presidental candidate, I know has none.

[zook]

I like McCain's anger. It's good to have a president who can get really pissed off at someone. I have no problem with his temperment and have no fear about his finger on the button. In fact, I wish right now that our enemies had a little more fear about that.

I'll absolutely support McCain if he gets the nomination.

There is a long list of reasons any American wouldn't want him to be president.

[jmaroneps37]

jaun mckennedy should NEVER be our president. He's crazy and a back stabber as well.

[Perdogg]

I wouldn't vote for him in the primary but if it came down to either him or Hillary I voting for McCain.

[Brilliant]

I wouldn't mind letting McCain have his finger on the nuclear button as long as the missiles are only aimed at Iran.

[John D]

I have a son who was wounded and just returned from Iraq. I have another who just graduated and will probably enlist. I do not want McCrazy in any position to put us in a war for no other reason other than that someone hurt his feelings. I knew him when I lived in AZ and he would not hesitate to get us in a war if he for any reason felt it would help him politically. Any AZ freepers want to agree or disagree?

[MBB1984]

I don't see McVain getting the GOP nomination. His stand against the Marriage Amendment, his part in preserving the filibuster against judicial nominees, and particularly, his open border approach on illegal immigrants seals a failed candidacy.

[zook]

I've never seen any indication that McCain would take us into war just to advance his political career. Were that true, I wouldn't have seen him taking the rather unpopular positions he's taken over the past few years such as,
campaign finance reform, the Dubai ports deal, immigration, Bush court nominees, etc.

From where I sit, this is a man who says what he thinks and follows through on what he says, agree with him or not.

[Mobile Vulgus]

He is an unstable person. The EXACT reason I could never vote for him.

I'd even pick the darn Morman over McCain and I think Mormans are cultists! THAT is how badly I mistrust McCain.

[johnny7]

You got that right... his temper rates well below some of the other things that are wrong with him.

[operation clinton cleanup]

As he walked through the crowd on his way to delivering the speech, NBC’s Maria Shriver asked him: “How do you feel?” McCain spun around and sternly told Shriver: “Please get out of here.”

That was actually kind of funny!

I could actually see a President McCain using the FBI, etc to go after people he dislikes (in the manor reminiscent of the Clinton's).

[FreeRep]

I don't think he fall in the Presidential Height Index, which holds that the tallest President is the best. Height counts and as a visual phenomenon we want someone taller then Vladimir Putin and other foreigner leaders.

[AmericaUnite]

It's a bad choice but I won't give it to a Rat. BTW, has he been on the talk shows today?
If he becomes the candidate his Rat 'friends' will make sure there are lots of exploding moments that the MSM will expose.

[jonsie]

I saw the incident with Maria Shiver live and was shocked. I was grateful at that time that Bush had won the nomination.

[John D]

Apparently you do not know him or have ever met him. I have, and he is as self centered as anyone I have ever known. He is concerned with only one person and that is himself. Again, find any AZ Freepers and I bet many more will agree with me than you.

Sen. John McCain Says He Doesn't Have a Temper

Reports that he may be too ill-tempered to trust with the presidency have riled Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.). "These reports are absurd," said McCain. "Anyone who thinks I can't control my temper is invited to meet my fist at a time and place of his or her choosing. I may be old, but I can still knock your teeth out if you don't shut your mouth."
