since the GOP will most likely, as usual, fail to use this issue to bury the opposition
The way the GOP candidate stammers and fumbles his words, the more his age shows.
Just a few weeks ago, McCain made 2 slip-ups in this single video. He stumbles on the word dispirited and then replaces it with spirited. Then, he stumbles by calling himself a conservative liberal Republican and replaces it with conservative Republican.
Then, McCain ended this short speech by vowing to continue to infringe on and quell First Amendment rights, when he says that 527's should be outlawed.
McCain a 'Proud Liberal'? (Video)
On his recent Iraq trip, he had to be corrected by his handlers over another verbal blunder. He doesn't seem to know the difference between Sunni and Shi'ite factions.
You can bet, the Dems are collecting each and every one of these screw-ups and will use them to show up McCain as a doddering old man.
Recall when the concern over Perot's selection of his VP candidate, Adm. Stockdale, after Stockdale's extremely poor showing in the VP debate. The opposition raised the question, "Do you want this guy next in line should something happen to a President Perot?"
A few clips just before the election of a doddering and fumbling McCain are going to show up. Bet on it.
Recall the 'dive' off a stage candidate Dole took in '96? That fall raised questions about him.
Right or wrong, like it or not, the Dem Candidate will find a way to show up McCain's age. And McCain doesn't have the personality to come up with a response like Reagan.
Adm. Stockdale, after Stockdale's extremely poor showing in the VP debate. The opposition raised the question, "Do you want this guy next in line should something happen to a President Perot?" AH, Mr "I'm out of ammo" ... LOL.
There were a few times in the GOP debate when McCain looked like he dropped his hearing aid.
The good news is that Obama and Hillary are both overrated. The bad news is the media lines up only liberal questions. The debates will be grating liberal lovefests, they'll make us puke.
