1. Great find. So is McCain too stupid to remember his own comment

or so out of touch with technology that he doesn't realize that these videos can be found and used against him?

2. Stupid? Maybe. Seems more like senility to me.

5. I doubt it registers with him

The reason is that Republicans tend to compartmentalize their thoughts. They don't necessarily have anything to do with each other. It's why a Republican can say, cheat on his wife, and then go out and lambaste a whole party for not having family values. Or why they can believe two seemingly contradictory things at one time. Like for example, how could Barack Obama be a Muslim, yet still have a supposedly crazy America hating Christian Reverend? Most of us would think, well shit, if he's Christian than he isn't Muslim. Not a Republican. They compartmentalize them separately and will use each one in an argument at different times. One does not necessarily effect the other in their minds. And even if he did recall that he said that, in his mind his comment was different, because Republicans tend to consider themselves more honest and righteous than most others. So if McCain said it, well he meant it well and he can convince himself that, but if Obama does the exact same thing, he didn't mean well.

3. The clip with the laughter at the end is much more powerful.

4. Hillary is richer than you McCain it would be wiser to retreat on thet law suit.

6. Hillarycare? Better than bushcare.

See how they mock us. Hillarycare. What a cute slogan. But I'd take that any day to bushcare; which is an oxymoron.

7. it was a lot better than anything any Republican has put on the table

That's for sure.
