CNN Larry King Live acknowledges McCain "health problem"

[malibuu]

Last night's CNN Larry King Live show with a political roundtable had one of the four pundits -
during a discussion about posssible veep choices of McLame -

mention that McCain's Vice-President choice DOES really need to be a viable candidate -
"not a Dan Quayle type VP" as of the elder Bush41 -
not so much because of "age" per se -
but because of "McCain's health problem."

What a nice way to say that McCain has that nagging, recurriing bout of malignant melanoma
still going on which there is "no straight talk" about.

Yet, the pundits still remain a bit too nice to the Viet Cong aiding POW
Senator McLame (R-AZZ) - saying that the "thin-skinned" McCain has "run a clean campaign" - LOL

Have they heard what the demented one said this summer in Iowa and during the debates,
including the recent bickering with Romney over who was "the first to support the " surge."?


The Panama-born McCain - even without the Supreme Court ruling as to his ineligibility -
will be slaughtered in the general election - maybe only winning the lynching state of Mississippi, IMHO.
regardless if the opponent is Obama or Hitler E. Rotten-Clinton.

Should McInsane be allowed to run for the Presidency considering he suffers from repeated bouts of Malignant Melanoma, which is a killer? It is reported that Malignant Melanoma accounts for about four out of five skin cancer deaths annually.

Just a thought.

The only puzzling thing is that he had it back in 2000 or so, an did pretty well... How?

The issue was only dropped after George W. Bush started to beat him bad -
like say after South Carolina ?
Nobody is gonna be as concerned as much if an Arizona Senator is having to deal with cancer - sure we feel sorry for him.

But we shouldn't pick a Presidential candidate on a sympathy vote.

It is no puzzle that "straight talk" won't want these CNN pundits on this -

it's just sad the GOP electorate in prior states have already given him nearly 2/3 of his needed delegates already - it is NOT too late for the later states to get informed.

That is why Wisconsin - and Texas and Ohio -and then Pennsylvania on April 22 -
can stop the McCain mistake by keeping him under 20% in those states primaries.

Then we force a convention.

Malibu, your assessment is spot on.

I do apologize as I wasn't clear- I wasn't talking about his political career (e.g. staying in as a senator), but rather about his health. If melanoma is truly that bad, shouldn't he be dead by now? That's what I'm wondering about.

Obama is CFR. Osama Bin Laden is dead. Obama is going to win the donkey nomination.

Because it's almost 100% curable if it's caught early. He's probably got a team of MDs looking for it to reoccur, if he's already had more than one bout with it.

I had seen a picture of McCain with a very nasty growth on the right side of his cheek - which I thought was a recent videoclip this summer-
and it looks like he had it removed and has some scars there still.
I doubt he had just cut himself shaving or something, but who knows ?

Certainly as a private citizen - and maybe even to some degree even as a US senator - the health issue is really confidential.

Malignant melanoma means, well you can't help but leave some malignant cells because it gets around -
sadly the cancer has a chance to settle and grow someplace else.

He did have a much publicized operation in 2000 -
and I don't wish any malice on McCain outside the political arena -
but the citizen electorate should fully realize this health concern when making a choice
for a Presidential candidate in the primaries/caususes process.

I totally agree with you that it is in our best interest to know about our candidates' health, but can't see how if it was truly malignant in sense of leading to death, how he would not only survived for long time but be in good enough health to campaign right now?

In 2000 McCain was 63 years old...now he's 71...it's harder to survive cancer the older you get.

McCain will lose every state, especially Mississippi with its huge black population and its ties to Chicago riding the City of New Orleans. Oprah's from here.

Melanoma is 3% of all skin cancer, and causes 80% of deaths from skin cancer. It is potentially curable if caught early according to MD Anderson Hospital. They don't say this but I know it is one of the fastest spreading and most deadly cancers if it spreads.

Also on their website:

Curcumin, the pungent yellow spice found in turmeric and curry powder, blocks a key biological pathway needed for development of melanoma and other cancers, M. D. Anderson researchers say.

Curcumin, of course isn't a drug that will have millions of dollars of research done on it because it can be patented. So no one will probably hear of it even though M.D. Anderson is researching it and I think all you have to do is actually eat it to get the very large anti-cancer effect. In America it would be illegal for a doctor to recommend eating it to treat cancer, since it's not a drug, knife, or radiation. We'll have to wait till it's in a 50$ pill before anyone knows about it.

One more reason to vote Ron Paul 2008.
