Senator Hothead
Slowly but surely, the "temperament question" is dogging John McCain's presidential campaign.
Steve Benen [2008-04-21]

  • The story gets worse, apparently

    HuffPo has linked to another story at Raw Story (which McCain blamed on a long day)

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/04/07/report-mccains-profane-ti_n_95429.html

    Even in private, I think it's over the line for a man to call his wife a c**t, but in an argument in public, while campaigning? Beyond the pale.

    So, what is McCain going to call Putin if he gets riled? Or Ahmadinejad?

    It's hard to believe, but the prospect of McCain's temper at play in the Oval Office actually makes Bush seem less undesirable. As Hillary Clinton commented, though perhaps for different reasons, McCain would be even worse than Bush...

    And as Raw Story notes, there will be a lot of long days for the next president.
