MR. STRAIGHT TALK

UPDATE: I thought about this some more and then, when I saw it on CNN this morning, I thought that perhaps McCain misunderstood the question—that the reporter was asking if he used Viagra. Or something.

And he froze. Indignant and frozen.

The inability of GOoPers to talk straight about sexual matters is almost tragic.

Here is a guy, a serial womanizer, who, at 42, married a 24 year old millionairess (ditching his wife who had an auto accident while he was in Nam. He said 'she wasn't the same') and he can only gulp when asked about it.

I don't care whether or not John McCain uses Viagra to get it up for his youngish wife or any other sexual partner. I don't even care whether he gets it free under Medicare or his superior health care insurance from the Senate.

What I do care about is that we have another repressed old man with inhibitions that prevent him from even answering a fair question that involves reproduction rights as well as equal rights to insured care for women under the Medicare system.

It is this kind of off the cuff shit that shows us who these people are and is also the reason the 'new' McCain team is cutting down on access to the so-far softballing press.
