I wonder if health issues might be an insuperable obstacle for Hon. Sen. McCain? I’m more interested (concerned? about wether Hon. Sen. Lieberman still has the itch.

McCain is another Bush sell-out, just like Colin Powell. It’s a pity that people who spend decades building up a career throw it away in a few years. Then again, Bush keeps recycling all the old Reagan Iran/Contra guys, so there’s probably a future for both of them.

I fully agree with the comments made by Rich [Comment #37706 ] and John Stanton [Comment #37694 ] John McCain is nothing more than a ‘hack’ and ‘Bush MINION’. He puts lapdog-like loyalty to Bush, over INTEGRITY or standing up for PRINCIPLES.The latest flagrant example being, his comments following the Kerry ‘botched’ joke. It is absolutely outrageous that he had time to comment on that instead of trying to speak up on all the crap that this adminstration is doing.
Report thisI have NO respect for McCain or Colin Powell for that matter, for the same reasons.

McCain is much too old especially now.
Report thisEven Republicans would be foolish to consider a candidate his age and more than foolish for Americans to go from Neocons to Paleocons.

He is a Bush lacky, like the rest of em.
He should launch an “Exploritory Committee” to find his long lost princlples.

McCain is very dangerous, extremely dangerous even more so than w. and the neocons.
Somehow, McCain has managed to project an image of a “principled politician”—an oxymoron - who is above the fray while he was a big supporter of the War ON Irag.
The Republicans think they have a sure winner in McCain for 2008, so folks should start going over his dismal record in the Senate e.g. like how he caved for w. on the military tribunals and habeus corpus and expose him before he gets off the ground.
This guy is DANGEROUS and a smarter version of w.!
