When on the subject of VP choice, J Mc should hang his head in shame.
If i were McCain, I would not be in front of cameras talking about this topic at this time. I would be too embarassed. But, hey. If you feel that you can do no wrong, or feel no responsibility for your bad issues,.......,then no problem. Interview away.
Please, Arizonia.
Retire. This. Guy.

If you want comedy, there is always Sarah Palin.
McCain is a Fine, Fine man, His stomach has to be turning though, Suporting someone who Rapes Workers of their Pensions !
McCain to Willard: Don't make the same dumb choice I made.
Not wanting to give the GOP an edge, but when soliciting VP advice, skip McCrypt.
Yeah, Geezer/Gidget 2008, we want a repeat of that traveling circus sideshow,.and with Greece about to cave, we need a belly laugh.
Maybe the official VP announcement can take place near Mr. 1%'s "cement pond"?
In other words, this was a big fat "what not to do" discussion?
What process? This addled old goat did not give 2 minutes thought to picking that reprobate from Alaska.
Sen. John McCain, the 2008 Republican presidential nominee, recalled his own vice presidential selection process
Yes, and we RECALL it too.
Mitt is too smart and calculating to make a dumb pick like McCain did in 2008. He'll make a decent pick.
Don't be surprised if Romney does select McCain because really, McCain is his best choice just like Romney would have been McCain's best choice in 2008. I think McCain was told to pick the Mormon and not the Moron Palin and he misunderstood.
Sen. McCain is the last person to comment on a candidate’s selection for running mate. It was he, and he alone who poisoned the American political landscape with his selection of the washed-up pageant bikini Grand Wizard of the KKK.
This is just too ironic to pass up!
The man who "picked" Caribou Barbie giving advice?
"Experience?" This was the most incredibly stupid decision of all time. Makes Bush sr. look like a genius with Dan Quale!
"Sen. John McCain, the 2008 Republican presidential nominee, recalled his own vice presidential selection process "
Given his age and mental health, I feel fairly safe assuming he was...
....confabulating.
Dude is a walking Namenda commercial.
Romney, please listen to McCain. He won't lead you wrong....I promise.
"Don't be surprised if Romney does select McCain"
McCain does seem to be pandering for the position, doesn't he? Too funny.
