BB; A tired trailing candidate may fall victim to gaffes, blunders or worse A tired stressed president may fall victim to gaffes, blunders or worse. Not sure I follow your argument. As a candidate, McCain can take days or time off if needed, as a president there is no such opportunity should the country need an alert functioning president in a time of acute stress. ......Take Iran for instance. A tired stressed president might make a blunder there that a fresh mind might not. My father at McCains age had lost a bunch of his judgement and stamina - and he didn't have to go through the stress of running for president. After four years of being president, McCain would likely look and feel more like 90 than 75. steve
