Did the gop establishment back away from John McCain? he made much worse remarks than Akin.

"You know, the French remind me a little bit of an aging actress of the 1940s who is still trying to dine out on her looks but doesn't have the face for it."

"I said, 'The nice thing about Alzheimer's is you get to hide your own Easter eggs.'"

"At least I don't plaster on the makeup like a trollop, you c*nt." -to his wife, Cindy, after she playfully twirled his hair and said "You're getting a little thin up there," as reported in the book The Real McCain by Cliff Schecter

"Do you know why Chelsea Clinton is so ugly? Because Janet Reno is her father." --at a 1998 Republican fundraiser

"Did you hear the one about the woman who is attacked on the street by a gorilla, beaten senseless, raped repeatedly and left to die? When she finally regains consciousness and tries to speak, her doctor leans over to hear her sigh contently and to feebly ask, 'Where is that marvelous ape?'" --a joke McCain reportedly told during his first Senate race in 1986

Not to mention his remarks on hating "gooks" for the rest of his life.

What do you mean President McCain said all of these things?

I can't believe that President McCain could have said such things on the campaign trail and still beat Senator Barack Obama back in 2008.

What's that?!? You're saying that Barack Obama cleaned John McCain's clock back in 2008? Really?!?

Well, nevermind, then...

What was your point, again?

BTW, quoting completely made up BS from Cliff Schecter
does not strengthen your argument.
