McCain, i hate to say it but i actually have pity for him.

[AlCzervik]

he is coming off sooo badly tonight, much worse than i anticipated, he looks old and he sounds just out of his mind.

[lynnertic]

1. Will someone ask about the 21 people who were murdered the day after

he safely strolled through the Baghdad Market.

[BuyingThyme]

4. Welcome to DU, lynnertic!

:hi:

[bigwillq]

17. Hello.

Welcome to DU! :hi:

[babylonsister]

2. Thanks for the update; I haven't been watching but may watch the

neverending wrap-up.

PS No sympathy here for McCain; everyone was praising him today and how great his poll numbers are. Maybe that will change...

[AlCzervik]

5. he's really off his game, i mean i've never seen him this out of it.

anyone says he won--they're lying.

[frogcycle]

16. he is manic

like a drowning man

you can tell his people prepped him to "go for broke"

act like Teddy Roosevelt charging up San Juan Hill (or wherever it was)

he comes across like a caricature

I think his numbers will go up in psycho wards and skinhead enclaves; the rest will dump him

[rurallib]

18. I thought at first maybe he'd taken some meth to get the mojo going

Wants to give the impression he's young & vigorous and ready to go to war.

[John Gauger]

3. How badly is he doing?

I don't have a television, but I would like to know just how badly he is embarrassing himself.

[AlCzervik]

7. like a dottering old man "Wait i thought i had a yellow light so i can still talk"

[Stephanie]

8. Well, he just called himself a drunken sailor.

He thought that was pretty funny.

[babylonsister]

13. Gives him license to start singing (bomb-bomb-bomb...) nt

[Olney Blue]

6. He is out of his mind, regardless of chronological age.

[montanacowboy]

9. He looks plain unhinged

real stiff looking, keeps pumping his arm, herky jerky motions,

he is just plain disgusting

[BuyingThyme]

10. Not me. Did he remember to wear clothes?

[AlCzervik]

12. from the waist up, yes, below the podium--don't know.

[BuyingThyme]

Then don't pity him.

:hi:

[Olney Blue]

14. Yes, but his tie looks like a barber pole or perhaps candy cane.

Bright red and white stripes.

[AlCzervik]

15. lol.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

11. he's a pandering lunatic now

nt

[lynnertic]

21. he gives lunatics a bad name.

[silverojo]

19. Sorry, I can't dredge up any pity for him

Any Bush enabler is a murdering SOB, and deserves only the worst that karma can hand to them.

Sorry if that sounds harsh, but that's just how I feel.

[deadparrot]

20. I'm usually a bleeding heart wuss.

But for McCain, no pity. He's as sleazy as they come.

[Solly Mack]

22. Never

[dazzlerazzle]

23. McCain performance

He doesn't seem quite sure of himself. His position now that Bush bungled the Iraq thing is correct, but where was he back then? Also, Juliani reminds me more and more of a movie vampire. If I had to pick, I would hope that Gov Gilmore be the one, he seemed the least radical of them all.

[Virginia Dare]

24. Scary, isn't it?

Gilmore and Thompson actually came off as two of the most rational of the bunch. Man, we are so fucked if we don't win this thing..
