This is where John McCain may have won the Republican nomination. It was obvious he didn't so much plan this as it just happened. It is remniscent of Ronald Reagan's zinger of Walter Mondale in answer to the age question. Sound familiar? McCain needs to do more of this type of speaking and let people get to know him. It is rare to watch all of the other candidates applaud his statement. That was a total winner.

AA,
I think that McCain needs to do more of this. The candidates spend too much time worrying about what they say while they should emulate Reagan, who was a great storyteller. Just a thought.

L&O Teach, I think I am getting into a rut.....I am sick of watching the same old crapola and expecting a different answer to come through it all....It doesn't....McCain can not do more because he is afraid to rock the boat and if he gets on the same wagon, Hill is on he will sink with her. Questions need to be answered of Obama and the ones that need to be aren't being asked. The media are afraid to ruffel feathers because of the race word, I Guess...Anyway...good post but I wish more relevent questions were being asked.....stay well...

Tap,
I too, hope that questions will intensify after the conventions. At least some media will pour it on. I think McCain can hold up while the Dems cannot. That does not mean I agree with everything McCain says, it just means he is the best candidate for the country at this time. Thanks for this visit!

Those were great. Especially then end of the first one where he zings the person who asked the question. The second one was priceless. First the whole drug reference and then a joke about his POW status.

Vegas,
Thanks for the visit.
Sorry I was late getting back to you. I was on spring break. I agree McCain was vintage on this clip and that's why I posted it. He has a great sense of humor. We need to see it more.
