McCain Calls Obama Young

Jump to Comments

Is this McCain’s attempt at some Reagan-esque humor?

“I admire and respect Senator Obama. For a young man with very little experience, he’s done very well. So I appreciate-with his very, very great lack of experience and knowledge of the issues, he’s been very successful,” McCain said to laughter from the more than 500 supporters gathered at an airport hangar rally Thursday afternoon. “So, don’t get me wrong-I admire and respect Senator Obama, but he does not have the knowledge, background or judgment to lead this nation in these difficult and challenging times and I do. And I can keep this nation prosperous and secure.”

Yes, McCain will be exploiting his opponent’s youth and inexperience.

  • In the past, I admired and respected the views of Senator McCain. For an older man, he’s done quite well. Now though, it seems that he’s flipped not just with particular issues but with his outlook. So, which was the ’straight talk’, before or after the start of his campaign.
