#3 Wasted ink of course, but there could be no clearer argument in support of term limits.

Yes there is B. I couldn't figure out how to add a pic of Nancy Pelosi but I and I think most everyone would agree she's a far clearer argument for term limits than McCain.

#5 In John McCain's world, not supporting him is the same as plotting against him.

#6 John Sidney McCain III, Born Aug 29, 1936, age 78, Panama Canal Zone, Panama is the senior United States Senator from Arizona. He was the Republican presidential nominee in the 2008 United States presidential election. McCain followed his father and grandfather, both four-star admirals, into the United States Navy, graduating from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1958. He became a naval aviator, flying ground-attack aircraft from aircraft carriers. During the Vietnam War, he was almost killed in the 1967 USS Forrestal fire. In October 1967, while on a bombing mission over Hanoi, he was shot down, seriously injured, and captured by the North Vietnamese. He was a prisoner of war until 1973. McCain experienced episodes of torture, and refused an out-of-sequence early repatriation offer. His war wounds left him with lifelong physical limitations.

John is on the precipice; he is about to become an octogenarian. He has outlived his grandfather by 17 years, and his father by 8 years. If elected to another six year term in 2016, by 2022, he will be 86. Surely, the power lure is strong, but time is running out.

By the way, ed in texas, holding your nose, left ear and hopping up and down on your right foot might help you clear up your stuttering. Try it. ;-)

#9 Pan---I will NEVER vote democrat after what they did to this country. The dems AND pubs got us into this mess. They have lost the right to govern. Abandon them and pick independents that have the stones to do what is right. The pubs have now only one chance left to pull a rabbit out of their collective a$$ and do what is right to save this nation.

We are bankrupt. Fiscal policy is inflating our currency and the U.S. dollar is being abandoned as the world currency by nations who are making bilateral currency swaps.

We need to get our house in order ASAP or we are toast. There is no more mad money to toss around to buy people off.

#12 People think that the only 2 choices are pubs and dems. We will never get out of this national death spiral unless we take back this country from the fat hogs on both sides of the aisle.

#13 Unfortunately AP, it's a two party system.

#14 Assuming of course there is much of a difference between he two. Not always the case.

#15 Correct CF. I believe the phrase 'best of two evils' predates Homer's Iliad.

#16 Don't go away angry McCain, just go away.

#17 The tea partiers started their long march through the political parties in 2008. They were forced to give up on the Democrats, but look at how many of the newer Republican Congresscritters are fiscally conservative, and how much influence they had on the current class in the House -- lots of cost-cutting bills passed, even if Harry Reid locked them up in the Senate.
