Of course McCain does not want us to think about his health,old age and he collapsing on 1/20/2009. This election is not really between Obama and McCain but between Obama and MCain's VP pick.

I am more concerned about his mental health and age! Who wants a president who mispeaks and get his history screwed up a lot, who seens to lose his train of thought sometimes when speaking and is
showing early signs of dementia! Next thing ya know, he'll be pulling "Ronald Reagans" on us and stopping in the middle of sentences because he can't remember what point he was making!
My mother had dementia and we had to put her in a nursing home at age 77 because she couldn't remember who she was, who I was, what day and/or year it was nor who was President!
I really think in the future, congress should put a limit on how old you can be when you run for office. I would say before retirement age.
By the way, my mother, who had very good health most of her life, died 5 years after we put her in the nursing home.
I want someone fresh, young, sharp, innovative, and who has good
judgement. It doesn't really matter if they have political experience, we've had many good presidents who were not in the military. I want someone who can stay levelheaded in a crisis, who thinks things thru and makes good decisions . . and that somone isn't John McSame! . . . . Obama in 08

My concern is that if he were to become president, that he will not be able to function as needed. Time saps your energy and I know it ,because I am his age.
I cannot work even 8 hours straight any more. Can you imagine that? The president has to put a good many 12 hours days!!

McCain is probably in better health than skeleton looking Obama.

We are nore than concerned... cancer, dementia all the above are quite a problem

B.S.

I'm not cocerned about your health nor you. What I i'm concerned are the LIES you are telling I mean they are so far out their that I believe that when our soldiers lives are being used to get votes. I say if we have in your words Won then bring them home. There are people killing each other here in the U.S.A. Are you telling us their will be no violence in Iraq before we leave. If that is the case then you just should'nt just be the president you should be a super hero. JOHN' THE CRYBABY' MCAIN

I know this is a serious matter and one that stays in the minds of voters no matter what. We'll wait on the results of the checkup before real speculation begin

I'm beginning to believe John McCain isn't listening to some of the things that concern voters about him. Of course his health is an issue to many in addition to his agew that is nothing more than yet another concern about his future ability to lead this country. The folks running McCain's campaign are obviously amateurs and must be blind not to see many of his recent appearance as nothing short of mediocre to miserable showings. It strikes me that the only thing saving McCain from a landslide loss is the flip flopping and thoughtless important issue mistakes Obama and his campaign are making.

Uhhh...I think McCain needs someone more credible and knowledgeable to answer the questions of his health.

McCain's statement would be similiar to GW Bush saying in 2004,
'Voters should not be concerned about my intelligence'!

Only makes you wonder about the qualifications of who he will pick as VP given the fact that it will only be based on who can help him win the evangelical vote. Yep...no worries there.

With age comes experience and wisdom. I'm not worried about McCain's health. I know plenty of people in their 70's and 80's who have plenty of stamina and are in great health. I know a lot of youngsters who are not in good health and don't have a clue about what is going on in the world.
Vote for experience and wisdom. NOT Obama.

When it comes to John McCain, I am not concerned about his health. I am concerned with his memory loss and his lack of a campaign message. He's all over the place and hasn't had an original policy proposal since the gas-tax holiday. What scares me even more about McCain, however, is how reporters feel obligated to not only spin his errors, but his lies.
Recurrence of McCain's skin cancer, I'm afraid, as unfortunate as that may be, does not compare to the impact the dis-service the media is doing to voters. By overlooking, or at the very least, underplaying McCain's errors and fallacies of both his condemnation of his opponent as well as his inability to relate a coherent vision for the future of this country, we run the risk of not only 4 more years of Bush- league imperialism, but a mis-guided, fractured administration that will further devastate not only America, but the world.

CNN) — John McCain told CNN’s Larry King Monday that voters should not be concerned about his health, hours after the Arizona senator had a mole-like growth removed from his face
Who CARES!!!!

I'm sorry but I think we should be.

I think we can add Alzeimers into the mix. With the way he can't remember things. Like how he voted.

Vote for the correct person. Obama

Of course voters should be concerned about his health. We don't want to vote in someone that is going to miss doing his job due to health problems.

Playing off skin cancer like it is nothing sends the wrong message to the people. You can't go about life always concerned about it, but you can't brush it aside like it is of no concern either.

Granted he is much younger, Obama shows that his health is a concern by excercising daily. That's a better message to send to America.

Never occured to me to worry

get lost!!!

We're not too worried about his physical health...

Well what else is he gonna say????

McCain's competence is a much bigger concern than the fact that he's pushing life expectancy.

The next concern is that he surrounds himself with a bunch of hacks and should he expire, we'd be left with whatever cast of idiots he brings in.

Although McCain thinks no one should be concern about his health and we wish him the best...We have to be, with a country that is in a major economic crisis our leader has to be in the best health physically and mentally and that person is not McCain. The stress of being the president would only add to McCain problems.

But we are!

I will vote for Sen. Obama in November, have already sent him money and will probably give more.

But Godspeed, John McCain, he's a good man with a sense of humor to boot. I hope he lives to the same age as his mother. The two campaigns have and will say some nasty stuff about the other candidate, but I like both candidates.

im more concerned about mcCANE's mental health to be honest. after witnessing week after week of ineffective campaigning, i have to wonder how alert the guy is.

now it seems that mcCANE will choose the role of angry old white man to get votes since he cant actually argue issues. look at the ads he is running and the outlanding claims he is making. it makes it look like john "oil spill" mcCANE has taken on the Joseph McCarthy playbook from the 50's!!!!!

obama should take mcCANE up on the offer for town hall meetings. he would put mcCANE to shame.

MCCAIN WHO? IS HE STILL RUNING?

It ain't your physical health, I'm worried about. It is your demencia!

One can easily notice that Senator McCain is not in great shape. Being as old as he is does not help. He would be the oldest elected president should he win in November. Now having a mole removed? One has to seriously understand that voting for him is in fact voting for his VP as the next main man. McCain will not be a healthy president to say the least.

Yeah, don't worry about his health.

His anger issues and the fact that he's a thousand years old, now that's something to worry over!

I am concerned, yes about his future health but more about his advanced age. The serious mistakes or mis-talks he's made lately make me wonder how sharp he is these days. I think he's slowing, both in memory and mental acuity. If he became president he would be from age 72 to 76 in the White House. His VP choice is much more critical than Obamas given this fact.

"Male life expectancy hit a record 75.2 in 2004, the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently announced."

Things that make you go hmmmmmmm.

Please do us all a favor and retire and take care of health, don't worry about our country we'll be fine under president Obama.

McCain's health will only be an increasing concern. A man of his age will inevitably have serious health issues... as he has demonstrated recently with his faulty memory, confusion, and lack of recollection of factual information.

Melanoma would be bad for McCain, but the rest of us are better of with him in the race. What if he had to withdraw and the Republicans then picked Jeb Bush?

i am not som much wooried about his cancer . my dad was a cancer survivor. i am more worried about a man his age running the countyr with all the mis jusgements he has had. 8 years of votong party line doesnt make you a maverick.

Time For a Change.

The guy is old and sadly in poor health. You can coverup many things, but a health problem is not one of them Senator.

He's gonna get sick, resign, and leave the people with HIS choice for VP.

NO !!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, he's certainly healthier and less senile than Larry King!

I am not concerned about McCain's health – well at least not his physical health. I am concerned about his mental health. Frankly, this man is unhinged. McCain is a liar, is not an honorable man, and is the worst candidate the Republican party could have put forward. What were we thinking! Romney or Huckabee would have been so much better than this fool. God help us if he actually gets to be President! And I am Republican - well, I used to be.....

I'm not worried about John McCain's health...

I'm worried about the USA's health, particularly if John McCain becomes President.

McWar is way too old for the job of president.

I agree with McSurge. And while I hope it's nothing too bad. It's your lack of knowledge, judgment and irrelevant experience that I am more concern about. I don't believe you have the ability to lead the country at 72 in the right direction.

(CNN) — John McCain told CNN’s Larry King Monday that voters should not be concerned about his health

It'Not your Health Senator ......It's Your Attitude!!

Oh really, not buying it.

Obama 08

yes we should be concerned.you eliminated iran by moving the iraqi border to pakistan.

Well Mr McCain i think people should be concerned about your health. Four melanomas is very serious. One of my oldest friends was told that they got all of his skin cancer it later came back in his brain and he was no longer with us in 8 months. It is very very dangerous. Time to retire.

Except that you are over 5,000 years old. We need someone we can rely on and not worry with every check-up and spot removal if he can continue.

Yes, John, we trust you. You've flip-flopped on every issue, broke campaign law, and thrown your friends under the bus to advance your cause. So of course we should believe that there is nothing wrong with you health and we should just vote for you so that you can fulfill your life dream.

If I were a relative of John McCain, I would be worried about the recurring outbreaks of melanoma.

As a citizen of the United States, why shouldn't I be worried about the health of a presidential candidate?!?

Is he kidding? Americans shouldn't be concerned about his health after he has had 4 bouts with skin Cancer and is 72 years old?

We won't be concerned about your health. We are concerned about your positions on several issues:

campaign finance

offshore drilling

tax cut for the wealthy

abortion (Roe v. Wade)

your version of "clean" campaign (especially after your "527" like commercial where senator Obama was shown to play basketball with troops in Iraq and you stated that senator Obama rather goes to gym than visiting wounded soldiers)

affirmative action

and so on

I think there are several other positions that Mr. McCain needs to clarify. If Mr. McCain calls senator Obama a "flip-flopper," I believe Mr. McCain should take a look at himself in the mirror.

This is why it never pays to "tear down" others. When it was reported that Senator Obama went to the hospital for hip pain due to a basketball injury, the Obama haters filled this blog with horrible things to say about the Senator. Now, today, the shoe is on the other foot and judging from the other story CNN reported about Mccain's visit to the hospital, McCain supporters are pratcially begging folks not to say anything derogatory about McCain's mole he had removed. The majority of Senator Obama's supporters wisih McCain well, as I do. However, we also WISH that all of you Obama haters would realize that unlike many of you, we don't hate McCain, we just don't want him for President of the United States!

OMG ! ! ! A mole ! ! ! Stop the presses and get a new headline ! ! !

I can't wait to see the death wishes that pour out of the Obamabots on this one.

Come on guys, show your stupidity! Ready, set......

Sorry Senator McCain, I am now concerned and I expect you to have the good judgement to understand why I would be. Our country is at a point where we need a leader that this very dynamic and most of all healthy. I cannot bring myself to even think of a distraction like my president's health.
Besides, I am an employee and I know that I function well when an healthy, how can you expect me not to be concerned?

obama 08 feel the power

I'm not.

How nice to know that we shouldn't be worried about his health; blieve me... I'm not – I'm concerned with his MENTAL health. At my expense, he has the best medical coverage in the world. I'm sure it covers psychiatric services as well.

Dear Mr. McCain:

Do not worry. I am completely unconcerned with your health. In fact, I don't care about it at ALL...

Obama '08!!!

- Sammy

Boston, MA

His physical health may be fine. However his bitterness and hot temper sometimes make me question his mental health. I wonder what care he has recieved for Post Traumatic Health Disorder after Vietnam?

And don't be concerned about the man behind the curtain!

The only health of his I am concerned about is his mental health....the man is not fit for the job.

Sen. MCcain sir, it's your mental health that scares me, your too forgetful ,and just plain crazy. Obama 08 a brand we can trust 08-12.

He is the risky vote.. not Obama.

I am not concerned about your health. I am only concern about your negative campaigning.

He will be 72 years old, should he be elected to the Presidency he will be the oldest to hold office, his memory is failing, he is easily confused on current events, his temper and inability to control same is legendary, his medical history includes cancerous growths and a new growth was removed today and we have every right to weigh this as a component when deciding if we want to risk putting him in office.

But we are concerned with your character and knowledge of issues.

Both which seem to be lacking.

A month ago I never would have said this about John McCain, but his most recent television add contains false information, poor policy choices and straight out lies. I hope that he did not personally sign of on the add, but he probably did and if not John McCain should be ashamed of his campaign people. The add is disgusting.

I disagreed with John McCain previously but still held a lot of respect for him. That respect is all now gone.

You Are Not Mentally Or Physically Fit To Be The President Of The United States Mccain!

Larry King has McKill on his program, quote "glad we went into Iraq, the World is a better place without Saddam Hussein". McKill did not justify 'over throwing another government'. IRAN is on his list America-WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?

Im More Concerned About Your Lack Of Judgement!

You Are Kidding Right? We Should Not Be Concerned About Your Health? Ok. . . We Will Be Concerned About You Being A Liar, A Panderer, And A Phony Them!

Ok senator, I'll stay out of the sun. However, I'm more concerned with your mental health, incoherent definition of the surge, your frequent misstatements, and dishonest attack ads. Please think. Really, what would happen if Senator Obama uttered things like Sunni and Shia mixups (3x), Czechoslovakia(3 or 4x), Pakistan/Iraq border, saying that he didn't use the word "timeline" when he did so less than 72 hours prior, completely unable to remember how he voted or his stance on health coverage and birth control, used wounded American soldiers to criticize his opponent, changed drilling position within 19 days then received 1.1 Million from the oil industry since changing his position, etc., etc, etc. Please think this November.

I am very concerned about John McCain's health. His memory is already failing. On Larry King tonight he said that Obama never acknowledged that the surge worked. What and who has he been listening to? Certainly not Obama. Oh, I know!... that brilliant ad he approved that says, Obama was the cause of the increase in gas prices. Yes, I am very concerned about his health.

Don't worry, John: we won't. It's your age and declining mental health that worries us.

Just read about Gonzalez – guess we really need to vote for McCain so he can pardon all his republican cronies.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

I'm glad that he's doing well. I'm an Obama supporter but I dont' wish ill will on anyone.

You need to be concerned about his mind. That he can't remember who is who , what he did or didn't vote for and when things happened. My dad had this problem it got so bad that he had to be placed in a home his safety. How safe will you feel with McCain in office.

it is not McCain's physical health we are concerned about...it his is mental health that is in question. anyone who fails as often as he does must be crazy to think he would make a good CIC. lets see graduated 894 out of 899 from the Navy Academy; FAIL. he crashed 6 planes while in the Military;FAIL. cheated on his first wife, left her, then married the mistress;FAIL. used his second wives money to run for office;FAIL. lingered in the Senate for 26 years; FAIL. refuses to release his Military records;FAIL. John McCain has 59 lobbyist running his campaign F.A.I.L...the one thing this man knows best is failure.

well, the good news is that we have Barack Obama who we can elect

I'm not worrieed about his health, I'm worried about his allegiance to the republican agenda.

All, Surgent McSurge feeling left out again? Senator Obama goes to the hospital complaining of pain in his hip due to a basketball injury, and McSurge has to go to the hospital too?

Come on CNN, give us some of your up-to-date REAL breaking news, not blow-by-blow updates on Senator Obama and Surgent McSurge's medical visits! Pleeze! (intentionally misspelled)

What about reporting that the gas tax will soon be increased, the same tax McSurge wanted to give a "TAX HOLIDAY" to, due to the damage to our bridges all over the U.S. In order to pay for repairs on our infrastructure, an increase will be necessary. So much for the "gas tax holiday", but, we do need to send McSurge on a holiday for his stupid idea! I'm thinking one-way ticket to Czechoslovakia, so he can talk to "President Putin"!!!

This is what we need, a president w/ anger issues that comes down w/ something and we're left w/ a VP no one elected to run this country.

Imagine if someone like Cheney had even more control

The TRUTH is he is sick and YES he is not healthy, it is beyond criminal for him, his campaign or the GOP to tell us otherwise.

guess what mccain? i AM concerned with your health AND your age!

Not be concerned with his health? yes we should be concerned with his health, he has had cancer TWICE and God forbid, but he can probably get it again.Mccain is like the old teacher noone liked at school because he/she was always was losing homework and grades.It will just be the same thing to me. Im sorry but I just cant vote for a man that old, with a very rich wife.

you have to be fit to lead.
dont need a frail president

WE ARE! WHY SHOULDNT WE?

Not only should the voters BE CONCERNED about McCain's physical health, they should be very concerned about his mental issues as well. The presidency is the highest office of our land and we do not need go through with electing a person that is just not physically or mentally up to the challenge – especially at this critical time.

It is in our own best interest TO QUESTION his physical ability as well as the root cause of the gaffe after gaffe – too numerous to count. It is just not befitting of a president going into office of a grueling job at this country's most critical time.

Why is this news CNN?

41/2 to 8 1/2 years is a long time, a male of your medical history is more likely then not to suffer from a medical incident that will put the welfare of the country in jeopardy.

What a relief McCan't: so stop talking about the surge – the surge is not going to fill tanks with affordable gasoline for Americansnor is it feeding the poor – giving shelter to the homeless. Neither is your BABY (the surge) helping homeowners keep their morgaged homes.

The surge is not solving the problems, nor is it going to help balance the national budget (on the contrary , it has made it worse and there is no end in sight) And stop insulting Germans(since I am included in your wicked taunts – we don't cower to anybody – never again!) What you and your likes get away with is unthinkable over. Politicians are held more accountable her than in the U.S. – you can't lie about your opponent and get away with.

Your taunts and insults won't dissuade me or the majority of my compatriots from morally supporting the best thing that has happpend to the U.S (politics)in the last decade or more. I just hope that patriotic Americans will put away there racial prejudices and select Mr. Obama, its not his fault that his mother fell in love with a black man, neither is it his fault that his mother married his step-father and ended going to where ever she went – a child has no say on such matters. America should – must come first at all times and not one's jaundiced views – the last 7+years and the next should be considered.
God bless American, Israel and Germany! – the countries always in my prayers.
PS: Obama's books are hot right now – went to ebay over here, too little offers, too many bidders – I hope my englisch is eligible enough(I tried my best!)

I gotta wonder how much we tax payers spend on multi-millionaire politicians and their families healthcare. Especially while many of us taxpayers receive little in the way of benefits, and I'm sure that VERY FEW of us get the kind of care these guys get. I don't know why I have to work to pay for their healthcare, while the quality of the healthcare I get cannot compare! I suggest they get the same benefits as a greeter at Walmart – at least the greeter has an honest job. Dick Cheney had to cost us millions! How about instead of the US taxpayer footing the bill for these parasites, they could have a Bake Sale or a dance at the local firehouse. Instead they continue raping the US taxpayers.

Thanks about the warning that he will be on Larry King Live – I won't watch ANY program that features a warmonger.

Oh! it is very important the state of the candidate health to be able to pick up the phone at 3:a.m. and to carry out business with foreign dignitaries. We can not efford someone feeble.

We want someone energetic. No more repubs this year.

Landslide Obama 08/12.

Less than 100 days left for a change in new direction.

An opportunity to fix the economy.

Go Obama go!

I'm more worried about his mental health a la senility, than his physical health...

My beloved America is being gutted and bled by the wealthy elite.

A 482 Billion dollar deficit, America's life blood sucked into the bowels of greedy corporations like Haliburton, Bechtel, the Chinese Army (!).

I don't give a rat's pituti about Obama's VP deliberations CNN, why don't you write about the bloody crime that has been committed against America.

Or are you serving the interests of those plunderers?

JOHN MC...HE HAS A SPOT RMOVED..CHECK....HOW WILL HIS' HEALTH BE WHEN-IF HE IS PRES
OBAM..HAS A SORE HIP...TO YOUNG TO BE OLD AGE..DOSE HE HAVE THE "BIG C."??
GET A GRIP...HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW THAT CAME OUT OF THE MD OFFICE WITH A CLEAN BILL OF HEALTH...AND DIES OF SOMETHING SHORTLY AFTER...

Someone who had cancer numerous times is not quite the person I want running the country. Its time for the old home grandpa.

More than his health, his temper and anger scare my wits!! He is a angry man (sometimes subtle unlike the mad dog Rush Limbaugh). If you don't believe me, read Joe Klein's article in latest Time Magazine. I am scared to death that if he is elected president, he will start World War III.

Apparently, McCain is not very concerned because he laughed through his interview on CNN about another cancer on his face. He laughs at everything. McCain wasn't laughing when he on was the stage with Lance Armstrong.

Now, it is reported that the cost to repair bridges of 142,000,000. It is not good judgement or experience when McCain still wants to do his toss the voters a bone in his "Holiday Gas Tax". That would give us $28 for the summer. Does he think we are that stupid. McCain wants to keep us in the war, that is all is can run on. He has no judgement on the war. The only experience is has is 30 years in congress. That would qualify a 100 other people in Congress.

McBush has got us in the worst deficit. McCain will continue.

Barack Obama is the President we must have. We need someone to lower gas prices the right way, create jobs, fix the housing problems, and bring our wonderful military home.

He should have worn a hat his whole life. I've heard the sun was much stronger back at the turn of the century.

Melanoma may be under control with proper measures. No worries.

mccain's mental health has me more concerned than this mole. his forgetfulness, lack of knowledge, anger issues, the way he let bush trash his family without defending them, his flip-flopping....

If hes already falling apart on the campaign trail,what makes anyone think he wont just die in the white house?
Obama '08

Now he's a doctor. I'm sorry, but the risk of death for a 71 year old man with a history of cancer is higher than a 21 year-old olympic swimmer with no health issues.

I don't know if he's ready to keel over or not, but he's likely at a higher risk of virtually everything that would impact his presidency than Obama. Only you can decide if that's relevant to you.

Gee, I wish I had health care like him. This "Tax break" method only works if you make tons of money to begin with.

ooo well mccain you are old lets admit it. i want someone strong and though. so Obama is better for me to vote

Your health is the least of my worries...
Your policies and party affiliation are terrifying, however.

I don't think it should be the central issue but, John, yes we should be concerned about your health.

You had a large medical record, you have significant health issues, and yes your age works against you.

We have to look seriously at who you choose as a vice president as he may have to succeed you.

McCain is just too old. It doesn't make him a bad person, but any person in the world can attest to the fact that people in their 70's are not at the top of their game ... physically or mentally. It is a fact.

We need younger people in politics to break the cycle of the old world mindset. Obama is just the man to step up.

It's his senility that people should be worried about. They should also be worried about his lies,hypocrisy, negativity, lack of faith in this country and it's people and on and on and on! NO TO MCSAME!

Give me a break!!! I am going to say it!!! I AM CONCERNED ABOUT HIS AGE!!! THEN WE CAN TALK ABOUT MY CONCERN FOR IS BUSH – STYLE POLITICS. HE IS FROM THE WHITE OLD BOY GENERATION THAT DOESNT GET THE MOVE TOWARD GLOBAL DIVERSITY AND RECONCILIATION.

MR. WILSON IS TOO OLD!!!!

NO, what American's should be concerned about-YOUR THOUGHT PROCESS!

That's more frightening.

Why shouldn't we be concerned about the ole war-monger's health. After all, he IS in his Mid-70s, he can't lift his arms up over his head, has to have skin growths removed from his face, and what's up with the protruding jaw? It looks like he as an impacted wisdom tooth.
Anyway, we have every right to be concerned about the health of some one who want's to be the leader of this country.
We need some fresh blood in the White House, and I'm talking about ALL THE 'Elder Statesmen/Women" It's time to take this country in a NEW DIRECTION.

Too old and unhealthy to be our president.

He's right. There are plenty of other reasons to not vote for McCain.

yeah, because you are very UNHEALTHY.

Sorry John, that's not your decision to make for me. I'll decide if I need to worry or not.

Death comes to us all as does aging. The true hero, however, places the needs of his country before those desires of his own. If the hero's country need a man of youth, stamina, and sound mind, the real hero stands down. You have tried your best. You have gambled your best. But you have lost your best almost 8 years ago to another Republican and it is time for you to stand down. Senator, stand down or stand alone! Will history remember you a hero or a tired, defeated, ancient, impaired, desirous sack without memory and without a place in time the hero deserves?

I am not sure of his physical health, but I am more concerned about his mental health.
He keeps getting countries and groups of people mixed up. LIeberman had to correct him in Iraq and he has been talking about Iraq for 6 months. He should know Kurds from Sunni's and Shiites by now as much as he thinks he is informed on the subject and he tries toCzechoslovakia tell us he knows what he is talking about.
Czechoslovakia has not been a country for many years and he gets that mixed up with Afghanistan. He has gotten other countries mixes up and I think he is in the very early stages of alzheimers disease. We cannot afford to take a chance on a president with the disease and I would not vote for him on a bet.

No! No! No! They should be more aware of the Countries Health..
The won't be told.. So I give up now... Borack Obama is the "Worst Thing", that could happen to the USA.. My Pshychic's warn me over and over again... It took a long time for the USA, to get where it is Today: And now they want to throw it all Away...

I don't see him getting through four years in the White House.

I wish all Americans had healthcare to have a quarterly checkup like the senator. I am happy he has that opportunity but imagine what others must sacrifice in cases like this

I disagree. I am most worried about his cognitive health. His is about the same age as my dad and he is starting to forget a lot. The gaffes that McCain has made in the last two weeks have been numerous. The recent interview with Stephanopolous is what makes it obvious. He called Putin the prime minister and General Petreaus the joint chief of staff. Both wrong, wrong, wrong....

I WISH McCAIN AND OBAMA CONTINUED GOOD HEALTH. BUT NEITHER OF YOU ARE FIT OR QUALIFIED TO BE PRESIDENT. ONLY HILLARY FILLS THAT MOLD. HER HUSBAND LEFT THIS COUNTRY WITH 3-5 TRILLION DOLLARS IN ESCROW WHEN HE LEFT OFFICE. BUSH JR. GAVE THAT AWAY WITHIN 6-MONTHS. THEN HE PLUNGED US INTO WAR. WE NOW OWE 14 TRILLION DOLLARS. YOU TELL ME HOW THE ABOVE MENTIONED McCAIN & OBAMA HAS THE KNOW HOW TO CORRECT THIS. HILLARY IS THE ONLY QUALIFIED ONE TO FIT THIS JOB. WE AMERICANS GET WHAT WE DESERVE. FIRST WE VOTED JR IN AND NOW WE'RE PLUNGING AHEAD LIKE BLIND MICE TO PUT A MAN WHO COULD NOT SHINE BILL CLINTON'S SHOES INTO THE HIGHEST OFFICE OF THE LAND.

Just and old war head that can not think of local issues. He
must end the war in iraq.

I agree with that McCain but I stilling vote for Obama. Not because of your health. I'm voting on issues like health care, the war in Irag, gas prices that is why I'm voting for Obama

The mole looks evil. We have to bomb the mole.

I know it's an insensitive thing to say, but hey this is the same man who makes jokes about killing Iraninan with cigarettes.

SIMP July 28th, 2008 3:32 pm ET

Texas Trail puppy

do you have a more than one personality? You bash Obama in one blog then talk up mcsane. Then you bash mcsane in the next blog and talk up Obama. You are using up good space is all I can say.

Obama all the way.

Hi SIMP, You must be confusing me with some other poster. If you have been reading my comments you would notice that i've been consistenly Pro-Obama although i wouldn't put it past some GOP troll using my name to create confusion.
Vote Obama '08, No, Never McSame.

Broken shoulders, skin cancer, and a age bracket that would qualify him dibs at any nursing home in America. Clearly this man doesn't have the best health record, I fear if he were elected, the pressure alone would due him in within the first year.

I pray that the skin cancer will not return in Jesus name. May all be well with Senatore McCain, except that I wish (for the sake of America) that Obama wins the election.

Senator, please! We have to take into consideration every aspect of your health: physical, mental, and spiritual. Physically we need a robust candidate who does not need every weekend to rejuvinate his fading body. Mentally we need a candidate who is quick to wit and to tongue and whose mind a great new computer calcutates and operates. Sprititually we need a man who draws on the help of power far greater than his own and to prove a human of the utmost moral calibur. You, sir, fit not this mold but another neither thought of of yet told. You, like the lying lark sing the new morn long, but grow tired shortly of that effortless song.

I hope he is kidding. If you take a picture of Bill Clinton or the current President Bush from when they started their term and compare it with a photo from the end of their term, you can see what eight years of this job can do to a person.

McCain's health IS an issue, especially considering what he will be walking into (if elected).

Paul Tsongas said the same thing when he was running for election and he was dead three years later!

Yeeeaaahhhhhh ssssuuuurrreeee. Let's take the country to a new direction by electing the oldest person EVER to be elected as President.

I'm suprised he went, was the press invited to take photos. I hear that's the only way he will go anywhere!

Why? You'll be the oldest elected president to date if you some how win. We should have the right to question your health.

I hope to see 4 years of McCain presidency, than one day of Obama.

i don't advocate taking words out of their context... except when it's funny. that said:

"In fact, I was running for president at the time. I'm not making that mistake again."

haha

This man is not Presidental material America, no ordinary Employer would hire him. Wake up America ... BARACK THE VOTE !!!
