    After his announcement, Senator McCain retired to the Straight Talk Express to take a well-deserved ten hour nap.

        LMFAO that was great Ind06, good find. He should follow this publicity stunt up with driving after dusk, and going a whole day without prune juice.

            This is truly a dangerous stunt; but it is an attention getter.

            On the medical side, believe that he has to wear a neck brace. One's head can snap down pretty sharply when one is nodding off; and the risk of nerve damage, though not high, is there.

            I don't know if he can do it! This is an EPIC undertaking, one that I don't believe can be taken lightly! Is he going to access the internets while on The Google (damned series of tubes!) while staying up???

            Obama has released a statement in response to McCain's goal that he will be holding a press conference in the Czech Republic regarding the missile shield at the same time McCain is staying up!

                          That's no big deal, McCain is an old party animal, remember the reporter he DIDN'T mess around with?

                          Now, if GW had said that, we would be in real trouble. 6 O'clock news is his cutoff point.

                              He' s also trying to break his record of 1 gallon of drool in only 12 hours. He already holds second place for the most bullsh!t fed to the media, Dumbya holds that record forever.
