The McCain presidential campaign received 20 years of Romney’s tax records, much more than what the 2012 Republican presidential nominee has revealed to date. Democrats have suggested the McCain campaign passed over Romney because they found something politically damaging.

Too late to make up for all the damage you intentionally inflicted upon your own running mate, earlier... "Maverick."

Well, duh. And, John, even thought I’m not a huge fan of Romney, he is a better presidential candidate than you.

Mr. RomneyCARE was chosen because HE CANNOT WIN.

Gov. Palin was chosen to WIN, but was backstabbed
by Team Romney.

What did McCain say about the illegal hordes overrunning his state? Or, the Federal government attack on Sheriff Joe.

*sigh*...

McLame, when you lose- and lose BIG time- to an idiot liberal marxist kenyan fraud with no experience and mush for brains then you should STFU- your advice is not wanted or needed.

YOU LOST!

YOU LOST EMBARASSINGLY, and saddled us with this incompetant commuist boob. $5Trillion in debt is partially YOUR FAULT too.

Unfortunately he must have burned up all his remaining gumption right then and there.

Great John McCain doesn’t like Mitt!

That’s a good endorsement.

John McCain says...

Please, lets skip any more "McCainisms". He has already sunken into "JimmyCarterhood".
