McCain’s Undiagnosed Blinking Problem

  • Posted by Joseph
  • July 9, 2008

Normal people average about 10 blinks per minute.

In this 1 minute interview I count John McCain blinking over 90 times!

According to Wikipedia: “excessive blinking may help to indicate the onset of Tourette syndrome, strokes or disorders of the nervous system” or it maybe just be anxiety.

Do you think John McCain really wants to “welcome” Bob Barr to the race? (I wonder if he’ll invite Mr. Barr to the debates/town halls.)

I’m quite sure McCain is at least a little anxious about Barr stealing 6 points from me in the latest national polls.

Though I’m not ready to rule out Tourette’s just yet.

Strokes can come with the territory at McCain’s age. I’d lean more toward that than Tourette’s.

Isn’t excessive blinking a sign of deception? Thought I heard that somewhere…
