McCain Dodges, MSNBC Anchor Oblivious

Posted Apr 3rd 2008 12:00PM by TMZ Staff

Senator John McCain was asked what appears to be a dreaded question, at least for him, on MSNBC this AM.

Joe Scarborough asked McCain what he thought of the fact that Heidi Montag, lame-ass "Hills" star, endorsed him. McCain ever-so-not cleverly evaded the question, saying Heidi was a "very talented actress." Joe had just launched into one of the hard-hitting attacks he's famous for, accusing him of not being a fan of "The Hills."

Clearly embarrassed -- though it completely escaped Joe -- McCain then volunteered he had also received endorsements from Clint Eastwood, Sly Stallone and Jon Voight. Clearly those are meaningful endorsements, because everyone wants Rambotox's choice as the next leader of the free world.

Joe was oblivious and never picked up on the irony. That's show biz, folks.

16. The last time we voted in a unqualified Democrat because we were unhappy with a GOP President, we got Jimmy Carter.

20. Heidi is smart but unfortunately , for Heidi HolloyWood will probably punish her for this choice. All to often does holloywood choice sides with dictators & socialists around the world (like sean peenn ally of adolf chavez ,hussein,etc)

21. I do Know about Mccain , but I Agree with 'ending' about holloywood and why do people like sean penn constantly side with dictators like adolf chavez or the guy in Iran ??

22. Most the comments I've been reading from the FAR LEFT are typical. They always resort to name calling. That's why they have the JACKASS as their symbol! LOL I had to point out the obvious :) TMZ...I hope you're not biased like ABC news.

23. I'm not a Republican nor a Democrat... actually I'm a Canadian citizen who can not vote here. But I listen to people whine everyday about the cost of gas.... Canada is a liberal country and we've been paying well over 3.00 a gallon for about 15 years. They think that voting liberal is the answer, you have no idea what you're in for when you start paying taxes to subsidize healthcare, education and so on. Start taking charge of your own lives.

24. 105. The David Letterman Show with John Mccain

I saw John Mccain on the David Letterman show tonight.
All I can say is I am so happy I'm not an
American and that I don't live in America.
With evil lying politicians like that, how
is America ever going to be respected?
Also what a degenerate audience clapping
at his false fake remarks all rehearsed to
get those naive ignorant masses give him
the vote.

What a a country of stupid sheep mentality
people. No wonder the world increasingly
despises America. America needs to mind
its own business but we all no that will never
happen. There's too much oil, money to be
gained and as if America gives a damm that
it has to kill hundreds of thousands of innocent
foreigners in the process.

I read recently that fifty percent of Americans
believe that the war in Iraq is going well.
That just sums up the intelligence of half
the American population. Their chosen news
source is most likely Fox news.

Bush and this evil politician are the real terrorists!
If only you'd all admit it.
