S.C. ATTORNEY GENERAL ASSURES VOTERS JOHN McCAIN IS ALIVE
FITSNews – November 6, 2007 -When it comes to unfortunate comments, it’s tough to beat S.C. Attorney General Henry McMaster’s performance in La Socialista today. By far and away the most vocal S.C. spokesman for the presidential campaign of U.S. Senator John McCain, McMaster was quoted extensively in this article discussing his candidate’s prospects in South Carolina:
All John McCain needs is money — just enough of it to get on television and let the people of South Carolina know he is alive and ready.
Wait a second, did he just say all McCain needs to do is let the people of South Carolina know he’s “alive?” Yikes. That’s probably not the best choice of words in describing the oldest candidate in the race … not to mention a campaign that’s on life support. Of course, in case anybody missed it the first time, McMaster returned to his “quick and the dead” theme later in the article:
Once he demonstrates he is alive, he’ll go up (in the polls) quickly.
And we thought running for president was hard! Turns out you just have to demonstrate that you’re not dead. “Have pulse will travel,” people …

dudes,
McCain isn’t the oldest. Ron Paul (who just so happened to have a record setting fundraising day yesterday) is older.

Gezeee. Have you noticed the drop in goat farmers in S.C. ?? When they found out sic(k) willie was randy they moved to Georgia.
The figured the drought was easier to deal with than sic (k) willie trying to make Chèvre cheese with their herd.

Dude, at this point you’re so owned by us that we could reply to everything you write with “We Know You Are But What Are We?” and people would marvel for years at the thoughtfulness of our reply.
Seriously, it makes our day that you have no life.
Keep ‘em comin’ …

Speaking of getting owned of Sic Willie, I know how that feels. My apologies for the comment a few weeks ago. They were misinformed.
