McCain’s Temper Always a Popular Story

Looks like the media is back to reporting on every flash of temper displayed by John McCain. That’s one of those long-running narratives on the man—that he’s too angry to be an effective leader.

Undeniably the man has a temper and it’s an acceptable question to ask if he has the disposition needed for the oval office. But if a news story is published every time McCain gets irritated at a reporter, this is going to be a very tiresome campaign. Maybe the senator should learn from Hillary Clinton. Instead of personally taking out frustrations on the media, have surrogates beat them down for you.

Less of an issue than I once thought it should be. Getting pissed off and blowing off some steam is not a bad thing so long as you don’t have your hand on the black button.

That’s temper? That’s me every night at the dinner table when the kids won’t eat.

Gee, McCain recently got a little irritated at a writer from the New York Times. Hard to imagine. Oh, and then there was the time back in 2000 when he was angry at Bush supporters who were trying to gain an advantage in the South by “informing” voters that McCain had adopted a child who wasn’t white.

Clearly this man is out of control.
