Who is this McCain guy? Isn't he the one who lost many of his staffers after he appeared on Letterman? LOL!

It is time to take the focus off of personal lives. I never felt comfortable with the gossip about Clinton or any of the others. People in public life have flaws and mistakes just like everyone else, and we should stay out of them.

I think I remember something about that. It's odd that I really did not pay too much attention to the story.

He had Al D'Amato's support before he lost it. That's pretty sad if Al won't be caught cheering for you.

McCain: Keep 2008 spotlight off gossip

You're right, John. Let's keep it focused on reality:

McCain-Feingold

McCain-Kennedy

Good luck with that, you RINO sonofabitch.

Much as I have no use for McC, it is nice to see his wife looking well. She had a stroke and that must have been very difficult for her.

Forgot to mention McCain's gun-grabbing track record ("F-" rating from GOA).

How can we miss him if he won't go away?

I thoroughly disagree with McCain. Everything depends on the circumstances.

Giuliani is not opposed to divorcing those to whom he has sworn fidelity, and he'll do it publicly, brutally, and without prior notification.

In that regard, his marriages says a lot about how he might treat those to whom he makes promises (conservatives.)

In the 2000 campaign, McCain called Falwell and others "agents of intolerance."

I believe this what McCain really thinks about the religious right in this country.

It discloses a deep prejudice and disdain and makes him unfit to be POTUS.

I'm sure if McCain become POTUS we would need a person like in the ancient Roman times to whisper in the emperor ear, "you are not god"

Too bad, John. Hillary research is all over your troubles. She will use it if and when it becomes necessary.

Whatever. Of course I don't know anything about you, but every other person I have heard say that cheated on their spouse, and that's why they don't think it is a mark of character.

That's quite an insult. I don't judge people for their mistakes, it doesn't mean I've made the same ones. And when it comes to character, it seems we have put the standards too high for national leaders. Many past ones regarded as great would not have passed the test.
