McCain's 72 years old and has been in Congress for the better part of three decades, and somehow he's a candidate of change. If that's not an insult to people's intelligence, I don't know what is. Maybe the "change" comes in Sarah Palin's revisionist history of her record in Alaska (e.g. supporting the Bridge to Nowhere before "opposing" it - only after it became an albatross).
You are confused Biden 3+decades
McCain 2

McCain was first voted into Congress (House) in 1982.

That was 26 years ago.

Do you know what "the better part of..." means? I think you're confused. And what does Biden have to do with what I'm saying?

My husband and I call her the "Lens Crafter Girl". She looks just like her. Modeling eyeglasses is more fitting, DEFINITELY not VP.

Wow, Obamatrons have a problem with the "victim mentality whining", when Obama has played the victim routine this entire election. Remember his poor victim remark about looking different than all the other faces on paper money?

I don't recall that, but she did end up on his "pork list." Is that what you meant?

Wow. Talk about having to walk on egg shells.

That lipstick remark was either a huge unintentional blunder or a very unwise preplanned miscalculated attack. Either way, it is going to cost him.

The lipstick on a pig remark is an old one which is a little bit funny, but judging by the way the audience behind him reacted, it meant a LOT more when put into context.
