McCain's Age and Past Health Problems Could Be An Issue in the Presidential Race

McCain's Health and age

We all consider McCain a hero for what he has endured in Vietnam. My husband is a Vietnam Veteran and he is my hero too just for going to that war.

But as far as McCain running for President and the possibility of Sarah Palin being necessary to step in, scares the heck out of me.

After watching the debates, McCain looks very sickly to me. I believe there is more going on then what has been led on to the public. He does not look well.

Sarah Palin

I truly want to vote for this man, but it is the first time in my 69 years,,,I am worried about health. I didn't worry when I was young becuase it didn't matter, but it does today, and I am not sure I want a woman who insults my intellengency by calling me a "Joe Six Pack" as President. That may have gone over with with Friday Six Packer who get drunk on Friday night, but it didn't me. I am a lady 69 almost 70 years of age and I will vote one way or the other but I don't appreciate her calling Americans "Six Packers". Maybe someone should tell her that.

The debate

I am just three years younger than John. I truly love him. I served in the same war (not by choice, drafted. No saint here)and I was not the hero he was, I worked as nurse and never got so much as a needle stick injury. I am 69 yo.now I wanted to support him. Last night I could see he he was having mobility issues, much as I am these days. Mine due to arthritis and hip problem. And he got tired and weak as I do sometimes. He has more reason than me because of the abuse his body suffered from mistreatment/torture. I have to say I want the best for my children and grandchildren and I need to vote for somebody with the stamina and health to do the job. I can't in good conscience vote for him. I can see it is not right to do that. God be with him.
