5. The left side of his mouth turns down a bit as well
At least it appears to in your picture. I haven't been paying much
attention to McCain lately. He annoys me almost as much as W does.

3. I've noticed that too. It seems to be getting worse...

I never noticed it until this past month or so. In his last few appearances, it's been more pronounced. It's not just the lid or the other skin around it. That eye seems to be focusing completely differently than his "better" eye.

It really stuck out when he was pressed on the Viagra/birth control question, but it seems to be more consistently weird-looking since then.

Maybe he just needs to be slapped really hard on the back of the head to fix it.

7. Maybe it's the result of all the tension of campaigning? I have to believe
any weak muscles only get weaker when the person is under stress constantly.

9. My guess is he had Bell's Palsy
My husband's left eye and the left corner of his mouth droop somewhat too, though it's not as pronounced as when his Bell's Palsy symptoms first appeared out of the blue 6 years ago.

14. I read somewhere that he's had surgery on that eye in the past.
Don't remember the details.
