The McCain handlers cannot wait... trot McCain out to read his notes/teleprompter, and they will run the country into the ground for even more profit than they did with Bush!

3. Based on standard mortality tables he has a 14% chance of dying 1st term...
And a 25% chance of dying sometime over two terms (heaven forbid).

Now, that's an average that doesn't take into account McCain's undoubtedly top-notch health care. On the other hand, he keeps having these melanomas removed, and he's not releasing his health records. That's not good news for a 72 year old man.

4. I look for McCain to pick Lieberman and
run as a non-partisan claiming he will only serve one term and do what is right for Americans. McCain and Lieberman are both perceived as being mavericks by voters that vote on principle rather than politics. I have heard Democrats say that of McCain and Republicans say the same of Lieberman. That's the perception people have from the MSM.

5. It is an issue.
We should not tiptoe around it.
