John McCain Seems Ready to Blow
Watching Sen. John McCain on ABC’s This Week with George Stephanopoulos, I’m struck by his attempt to convey a controlled, soft-spoken, and soft-spoken he tries to be. His began the interview sounding measured and reflective, almost pensive. Soon, however, he was apologizing for barely raising his voice above a whisper. His exaggerated efforts at restraint are evident.
But that famous McCain temper is evident just below the surface.
“I apologize for firing back at you like that,” he said after he barely raised his voice in response to a question by Stephanopoulos.
Apologize? For what? Answering a question? Disagreeing?
McCain spent a good portion of the interview trying to convince the American people that he’s everybody’s favorite grandfater, and Gen. David Petraeus is simply misunderstood, and, gosh, really a great guy.
McCain will boil over soon. As his numbers drop, he’ll explode.
