Well that is saying alot. I'm sure the wonders of the NYC Democratic
party where smarter than McCain.
In your view, over McCains 15 + year record which I've watched fairly
closely, which bills did he write which
demonstrate his below average intelligence? And what racism, stupidity
and paranoia has the public displayed
with regard to supporting McCain?
Mark Green might be a guy with below average intelligence but McCain has
largely been accomplished and
intelligent in his time in the Senate. I didn't do this during the
election because I didn't want to really inflame the
list, but would you like to review the McCain record and we can
determine just what kind of politician he has been?
