On SNL, McCain unveils 'The Sad Grandpa'

Hilarious!!

It is amazing that John McCain will end up with a legacy as the www.sadgrandpa.com. He is a true American hero and deserves better. We will find out on Tuesday if he becomes President or not.

I'm not voting for McCain, but I can't deny he's a good guy and a good sport.

OK, last chance. Any guy who is willing to laugh at himself like this has my vote. Barack is probably a very nice guy, if a bit ruthless. The people he surrounds himself with, however, make my skin crawl. The playing of the race card from the get-go set discourse back 20 years, despite protestations to the contrary. If you really want someone this far to the left in the White House, remember that there is a right-wing analog that will pop up. We are a center/right country, despite anomalies on the coasts. If you think the folks in the flyover states are going to take 4 years of abuse from a vocal minority, you're crazy.

McCain was damn funny on SNL, still not voting for him, but he was funny.

I expect someone who is running for president to be a good sport, as well as many other good qualities. McCain is a fine American, and worthy of the presidency. But, Obama has my vote in part due to McCain's judgement call vis-a-vis Palin. I just cannot even fathom her being a heartbeat away from being the leader of the free world.

Very funny and quite enlightening. How nice to see what a sense of humor John McCain has. He doesn't take himself too seriously and that in itself reassures me about what he can bring to a leadership role for the country. I've been nervous about both of these candidates, but I think the humor reflects some honesty.

Dear aging cynic,

It doesn't matter who is "a nice guy". What matters is fair policy. That means every person and every vote counts. When you say, "Despite anomalies on the coasts" it sounds like you are not aware that there is a larger populous on the coasts. We are pretty much here because there is more opportunity and less prejudice than where you are. If you never leave your "fly over state" you might think the rest of the country thinks JUST LIKE YOU -but you are wrong. So stop and think before you go making sweeping statements about a "vocal minority" that is actually the majority.

McCain was funny and a good sport. I loved the "Sad Grandpa" bit.
For Pamela Q: aging cynic was making reference to a group of folks called "The Silent Majority". Please look it up; and then perhaps you will be able to understand the point being made. In spite of your obvious and misplaced support for Obama, the article is about John McCain on SNL, not a political opinion.

Totally funny but I still gotta say....
OBAMA/BIDEN '08
McCain may have 20 ish years of bipartisan good leadership, BUT IT'S THE LAST 6 YEARS I AM LOOKING AT and they tell me JOHN MCCAIN HAS SOLD OUT to get the Republican nomination, he signed bush's torture bill after 22 years of strict anti-torture American ideals, he never took a hard stance on Pro-Life/Pro-Choice before ...I mean the guy used to be a maverick, but now he's just another sell out running with a right wing anti-intellectual not-a-real-christian-in-my-book nutcase!

Lets put our country and ourselves first and VOTE OBAMA!

McCain was great on SNL! I will be voting for him on Nov. 4th. Obama will take us back to the old days of the welfare system. There's no way you can give away all he is claiming he'll do without raising taxes! I've also seen what socialism has done in Canada and I don't want my country and my freedoms going in that direction!

It was a concession speech in comedy form. "Please remember me as a fun-loving good sport and forget that I ran one of the nastiest, most hateful, deceptive and incompetent presidential campaigns in American history."
