McCain will never admit it but he hates Bush and Cheney. Especially Cheney

[NNN0LHI]

For a lot of different reasons that I can think of. The torture thing is right up there. But he does hate them.

Same goes for Palin too probably.

1. I'm sure he's no longer very fond of Caribou Barbie

since she's thrown him under the bus repeatedly (and backed over him a few times) since the election. Of course, he has no one to blame but himself for dragging that ridiculous woman off the tundra.

2. Palin was all he had left.

What choice did he have? None of the other potential VP candidates would have rescued his campaign. He really had nothing to lose by choosing her. Probably thought she'd fade into obscurity after the election. He can't be at all happy about her current "celebrity".

4. If he had been his own man, he would have chosen his best pal, Liberman

and the two of them would have had a very good time running around the country having their last hurrah .....losing, but at least being genuine and having some fun..

In the end he sold out..like he always has, and now he's an even more bitter old man.

12. I think that's the plot of the latest installment of the "Grumpy Old Men" franchise.

Too derivative of "Bucket List," for sure, but entertaining for the Matlock/Murder She Wrote base.

13. You don't run to have fun and lose

It was a major gamble on his part, and he lost.

And unleashed a nightmare on us all in the process.

14. Actually, he might have done better because at least he would have been honest

in his approach, and in the minds of some people, a team of "experienced/bi-partisan" guys might have been appealing in a race against a relative "newbie"..

He allowed himself to be shackled to Fertilla, the Huntress and it was obvious from Day One, that his heart was just not in it, as she completely took over..

[VWolf]

15. LOL @ Fertilla, the Huntress n/t

7. If he had chosen Romney or ANYONE ELSE....

...he may have won. Palin lost that election for him. Not that Obama didn't win on his own awesomeness, hindsight is just kind of 20/20...

3. Recommended.

I think it shows. He may not say it out loud, but it is clear.

8. What is the deal with his arms?

I'm not being a jerk here, I've been wondering about it since the election....

[shraby]

10. I believe they were broken in the Hanoi Hilton where he was

tortured during Vietnam..either that or he broke them when his plane crashed which caused him to be captured.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

11. He looks like a dwarf who had their limbs extended.

Again, not being a jerk. I worked with a guy at the detention center who was our teacher who was a dwarf who had his arms and legs lengthened back when they did this sort of stuff. He had the same arm thing.

6. There was a time not all that long ago I could say I did not hate anyone

Now I have as much or more hatred for Bush*/Cheney as anyone on this earth..

[Greybnk48]

9. Well I hate McCain and his poser daughter too.

And nothing will change my mind. He's a complete phoney and a sellout and he's done nothing while in congress except attach himself to Feingold's Bill like a fucking barnacle only to throw campaign finance reform under his bus when he thought it would play well. He disgusts me. And so what if he hates Cheney. Everybody does, big deal.
