``I would never do this again. I'm too tired,'' McCain told reporters who surrounded him on his campaign bus yesterday.

``I think it's fun once. I don't see how it's fun twice.''

At that point, his wife, Cindy, who had just gotten off a cell phone after speaking with one of their...

If he was too tired 8 years ago... isn't Hillary going to use this against him if he's the nominee?

the $64 question “Is McCain this year’s Bob Dole?” is valid.

This is small potatoes for Hillary - She will dig much deeper than this. At least he could chime back saying, “At least I didn’t cry, not even when I was beaten by the communists in Hanoi.”

Of course that would just make more women vote for Hillary, cause McCain is a bully.

``I would never do this again. I’m too tired,’’ McCain told reporters who surrounded him on his campaign bus yesterday.

``I think it’s fun once. I don’t see how it’s fun twice.’’

Since McCain said this just yesterday. He has obviously forgotten that he ran for the nomination before. Possibly early signs of Dementia or Alzheimer’s.

McCain said this in January 2000.

The phrase "creepy liar" comes to mind ... I dunno why. Maybe he just forgot.

Read on another forum: "The Detroit poll showed those concerned about the economy vote for Romney. Those worried about Iraq McCain. I can see why. McCain has never created a single job in his life. He had to ditch his loyal wife and marry for money."

>>>just another one of McCain’s LIES!

In 1962 somebody said “You won’t have Nixon to kick around anymore”, then later got elected POTUS twice anyway. Reasonable people know the difference between LIES and changing your mind.

Probably much of the “adulation” of this nutty old warhorse by “moderates” is being encouraged by the Clinton team to give her the same kind of split-the-moderate independent camp victory Bubba won in ‘92
