There's something wrong with McCain's left eye
Edited on Tue Mar-04-08 10:00 PM by Godlesscommieprevert
It's drooping more than I've ever seen it. The guy just doesn't look well.
Oh, and BTW - horrible speech.

Edited for crummy spelling.

3. There is more wromg with McShame than his eye.
His brain, his credibility, his support for torture and war.

12. The botox is wearing off
Wife noticed it earlier. About two weeks ago his forehead was so botoxed he couldn't move his eyebrows. Gonna take some kind of plastic surgeon to keep that youthful McCain visage.

20. I'm kinda tired of this ...

I personally am kinda tired of the old folks beaten on Obama for his lack of experience, then running off to get the botox so they can look more "inexperienced". They made their credentials in their wisdom, it's time to live with the wrinkles.

14. We noticed it too
My husband just mentioned that he doesn't look well, and that the left side of his face is unusually swollen. There has been some speculation here that he is suffering from a yet undisclosed recurrence of cancer. Hope that is not the case (I wouldn't wish that on anyone) but he doesn't look well.

16. I think the facial swelling is linked to his melanoma surgery
He had a melanoma growth removed from his face a few years ago, and I'd bet that a few lymph glands were also removed, which would cause this swelling. He's had it for a while, but the eye droop is new as far as I know.

15. I noticed the drooping eyelid, too.
I don't particularly remember his eyes appearing so uneven before. He doesn't look healthy at all. What happens at the Republican convention if the presumptive nominee is unable to run?

18. This is a positive ...

McCain is appealing to the Reagan vote.

19. Could be bells palsey
My dad had that. Causes paralysis of some facial muscles and can give the appearance of having had a stroke. Having bells palsey isn't a big deal, other than having to sometimes tape your eye shut to sleep, and sometimes it can cause some drooling. However, it could be a killer for his campaign. Especially if he starts drooling. And exhaustion can make the symptoms worse.

22. There's something wrong with MCCAIN. And it's his brain, not his eye.
