He was doing the McCain Shuffle, a dance move he invented in the 40s. It never gained traction and has rarely been seen since.

McCain was thinking about Obama as our next president. The thought made him sick! NO BO in 08!!!!!

McCain appeals for the sympathy vote as he reveals to the world his heartbreaking struggle with piles.

I should not have had that Palin moose dish for dinner last night.....

Posted by: Tomas | 16 Oct 2008 11:36:22

Was he gonna throw up?! Or, maybe he was coughing but unfortunately his body language had been ridiculously against him!!! Lol

Posted by: Ryoko | 16 Oct 2008 11:37:56

Had he just snogged Sarah Palin?

Posted by: Philap | 16 Oct 2008 11:45:39

He's reacting to a "reminder hug" from the Grim Reaper.

or

He saw the Ghost of his Political Future.

or

Caught a glimpse of Cindy out of the corner of his eye and thought he was having a "Close Encounter of the Third Kind"

or

he's thinking, "oh no, that creamed corn and jello ain't agreeing with me!"
