Does McCain sound weak or what?
Every time I hear that man talk, he sounds like he's some kind of dropout from the Fred Rogers School of Low Key Oratory. I am beginning to have doubts that he was even able to drop the C-bomb on his wife, maybe it just came out casually as if he were commenting on the weather. Or maybe he's just repressing some explosion of rage. I've heard he has a temper. Any evidence?

1. He's a low talker....like on Seinfeld.
But seriously, his life force is vacating the shell.

4. Awwww, you beat me by 3 minutes!
I did see a clip of him being very short with a reporter in 2000, I think it was Maria Shriver. Before that, I actually sort of liked McCain. Glad I came to my senses.

7. I think we all thought he might be a few rungs above rest of the sewer rats.

2. Anger is fueled by adrenaline....
I have no doubt that he can loudly project is profanities when that anger is triggered.

3. if you were unsure what stupity would eminate from your mouth
you too would try to make it inaudible. For instance "Maybe Cindi could enter the Miss Buffalo Chip contest."

6. McCain's tone of voice reminds me of
an old Grandpa telling a creepy bed-time story.

8. They've probably got him on sedatives
So he doesn't blow a gasket on teevee.

9. He's not weak - he's DIM.
There's a difference.

Seriously, though - the man has all the charisma of Paul Tsongas and none of the brains.

10. He only does one campaign event a day. He doesn't have the energy to be president
Its a joke that people even take him seriously
