Today, Obama, tomorrow -- Happy 72nd Birthday John McCain!!


Lest we forget, with all the hoopla surrounding Obama's speech tonight -- tomorrow, John McCain will turn 72 years old.
McCain, if elected, would be the oldest President ever to take office for a first term -- older than Reagan by 2 and a half years.
His physical fitness to take the rigors and the stress of the job at his age <i>is</i> an issue.  But McCain's flashes of temper, his forgetfulness and his problems with teleprompters have raised serious concerns about his mental fitness and his impulse control.
This is an issue, and by God, it should be the topic of the day tomorrow on the cable News shows -- in addition to Barackomania.

Mabye a great big "Happy Birthday" ad buy would be in order .... complete with birthday cake!

If only there was another birthday where McCain famously was enjoying cake ... with Bush ... that would provide even greater context.
