McCain: Obama has 'done well' as president so farTell me you were joking? Ok, here are the rest of his stupid comments, from the AP: WASHINGTON (AP) — Sen. John McCain says his opponent in last year's presidential campaign, Barack Obama, has "done well" in his first five months in the White House.
The Arizona Republican says that using a legislative scorecard to judge the presidency so far, Obama has achieved all his legislative goals.
On the down side, McCain says that Obama's successes in Congress have come with little or no Republican support.
McCain also is critical of Obama for setting a date for closing the detainee facility at Guantanamo Bay without first developing a comprehensive plan for what to do with its prisoners.
And the Arizona senator says Obama should speak out more in support of protesters in Iran.
McCain appeared Sunday on CBS' "Face the Nation." I guess it wasn't just coincidence that the Conservatives had something better to do than vote on election day. Did I say that?

I don't know whatever happened to McCain,,him and his 'maverick' image,,,he isn't even close to that. Other than his service to this country and I would thank him for that,, he is just another life-long DC resident that should move on to the private sector,,as in,, RETIRE !!
There are way to many of these senators in D.C. that should go away,,its no wonder that its just 'politics as usual' running this country.

I agree totally nobama, but you can add congressmen to that list. We have one in our own backyard that is so entrenched that we will never see the day he is gone from office, and when he finally is he will be replaced by someone more liberal. As long as Duluth and the Mesabi and Vermilion range areas remain so strongly democratic it just seems hopeless for "change we can believe in."

What about Lamar Alexander? He wants the HitlerCare plan. I never trusted him as I thought he was just like McCain---a big phony. When he tried to run for president, I went to see him. He came up to me to shake my hand and all the while he never looked at me once but was looking around like he was looking for someone better to greet. I will say that his picnic in the park was a good one. The pork producers of Iowa brought the food and the pork burger I had was the best I have ever had. I sure think he is a weak person.
