What the hell was McCain staring at during those couple of questions?

[rateyes]

He looked like he was trying to read someone's lips in the audience or something. Did you know what I'm talking about??

1. It's called pooping his pants...

Old folks do some strange things when they relieve themselves.

[Okie4Obama]

2. I saw that too.

It looked like he was really straining to see something across the room. It was only a slight improvement over his death rictus smile.

3. yep I seen it too, I think he didn't realize he was on split screen

at the time

[rateyes]

4. I thought he was trying to distract the viewers from Obama's answer

or was trying to see something through the lights. Maybe Cindy was telling him to zip his fly. :shrug:

[LonelyLRLiberal]

5. No, seriously - he was looking for someone to give him a cue about something, IMO.

He was squinting and looking out as if to someone in the audience. I can't remember the topic now, but I thought it was very strange.

[vanderBeth]

6. He was trying to avoid Obama's eyes.

[rateyes]

9. He never said word one TO Obama, after the moderator asked

him to address his opponent. He's a fucking coward.

[PA Democrat]

7. Was he trying to read his cue cards?

I was wondering the same thing. He was squinting at something.

[crazy_vanilla]

8. he was making some strange faces there, even comical

I, too, thought he was pooping his pants.:hurts:

[Ilsa]

10. Yeah, I wonder if it was that or if he was straining for a BM.

Heavy travel can make him irregular, you know. And he may have missed his metamucil dose this morning.

[hatchet]

11. the blinking...

at one point, his rapid fire blinking went haywire. I thought he was flashing baseball signals with his eyelashes.

[rateyes]

12. You know, I thought that perhaps Palin was standing in the back

of the audience and he was trying to get another peek at her ass.
