29. it could be this
All the blinking and winking and tongue twirling still makes me wonder about Tardive Dyskinesia: "Features of the disorder may include grimacing, tongue protrusion, and rapid eye blinking" from use of certain medications.

30. That's what I think -- prescription drug cocktail side effects.
Not sure what drugs he was on.

Suspect prednisone too high causes the extra growling.

Does Aricept make people stick out their tongues?

31. And this video is the short form. He stuck out tongue later with Cindy.
Just as a kind of whoops thing. Like when heading the wrong way to shake Bob's hand in this clip.

11. I've never witnesses a public figure who is so socially
awkward.

He had no idea which side of the table to walk around to shake Bob's hand after the debate. :eyes:

He can't figure out which way to walk off stage after a speech.

He never knows whether to hug another male or shake hands, so it looks like this:

UGH

:eyes:

15. I will admit...
...that the creep-out factor of John McCain has just been magnified eight-fold by these photos.

I don't know whether to applaud you...or curse you for the nightmares that are soon to follow.

18. That "after the debate" moment is going to have an effect.
There's no doubt about it. When I saw that, and then saw how cool Obama was, it was a defining moment. Although subtle.

And I believe it was deliberate that Obama then suavely took a sip of water. That had to be conscious on his part. But it worked.

21. Looks like acid reflux.
I have it and I'm sure I would have an attack if I got pwned like that on national TV.

22. I think McCain was high on speed
'm sincerely curious. I thought McCain was acting rather bizarre.

McCain was beyond "energized".

* His eyes looked dilated. (They truly did)
* His lips are chapped to the point of looking sore
* He was constantly licking his lips.
* Sometimes it looked like he had dry mouth
* He was even more fidgety than normal.
* His hands were shaking at one point.
* He seemed nervous.
* He was making weird twitchy faces
* His head was jerking all around
* The blinking, which has always been an issue for him anyway, was at full tilt boogy.


And did you see how he entered and left the stage... was all freaked out about who's hand to shake, mugging faces and shrugging. Reeeaaly odd, goofy behavior.

I'm serious. I think he was on speed. I honestly do.

I don't know if it was to give him energy, or if his old man mental acuity isn't as quick as he'd need it to be... so he popped some Dexedrine.

But, McCain didn't seem quite right to me.

24. Even if it was just too much coffee or Red Bull,
he did seem to me to be pumped up, jumpy, and excitable.

28. He probably drank too much Geritol Tonic before the debate.
After two years in the hot seat no amount of Geritol or anything else is going to animate him.

26. He did it on purpose too
That's the weirdest thing. Like he was doing some kinda funny jig about where he would walk to shake Bob's hand. Unreal. What a socially inept, childish doofus. And pics of this will live on forever ... hahahahahaha.

27. Kicking-- supplements the other thread (still pic, side view). There's your candidate, Freeps.
I too was initially incredulous and thought- "that has to be "shopped". Sadly not.
