Assuming McCain does get elected, the 4 year term is actually more around 8 years on his health, which translates to him being 80 years old on leaving office, ASSUMING he was not re-elected.

    And if he was re-elected, well...you do the math. Almost 90 years old.

    I mean Jesus pull up a picture of G.W. Bush on google from '99-'00, and then compare it to now, dude looks like he has aged 20 years in 8.

    McCain better have a good running mate, because we might be needing him.


    haha it would be a blessing to me if he picked someone like Romney or Huckabee, pref Romney. I wouldn't mind him croaking if it meant Romney would be in the office, McCain is not that strong of a candidate without a doubt.

    Seriously dude Romney would be hands down (IMO haha) the best running-mate, I was bummed when he pulled out of the race. But we will have to see, McCain is a smart guy and realizes Romney has a lot of supporters. I think Huckabee is a little too conservative for McCain, and McCain is known to be a more liberal conservative (oxymoron much? haha)

    Either way, this years election is going to be intense.

    yea i agree.



    I think Obama has a lot of supporters though, i think its a matter of the Democrats playing it cool or shooting themselves in the foot like normal.


    I really don't fell like the ball is in McCain's side of the court anymore, anyone that is voting for him i feel is already on the boat, but i do feel like Obama could lose support inbetween now and election time.

    Maybe his stance only keeps changing because he is finding out more intelligence and information on the war? I would rather have a guy who is able to see both sides and change his mind accordingly, opposed to a guy who is so stuck in his ways and what he believes that he sends an entire nation into war and racks up a sizeable debt (understatement)

    And also still won't admit that he has made any mistakes.
