The GOP candidate Juan McTeenSouthCarolina: Dumber than a Door Knob! I just can't believe this Clown is the GOP nominee or has even made it as a national politician.

Additionally, there's a video link on the NYT article to watch...

excerpt:
LAS VEGAS —Senator John McCain was performing relatively smoothly as he unveiled his energy plan.

Senator John McCain, who has thrived in give-and-take settings, is trying to meet a demand for more formal speeches.

He managed to limit the mechanical hand chops and weirdly timed smiles that can often punctuate his speeches. He delivered his lines with an ease that suggested a momentary peace with his longtime nemesis, the teleprompter. (He relied on a belt-and-suspenders approach, with text scrolling down screens to his left and right, and on a big TV set in front of him.)

But when Mr. McCain, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, came to the intended sound bite of his speech — the part about reducing America’s dependence on foreign oil — he hit a slick.
