Gay Sweaters Blamed for McCain’s Failure


Some think John McCain's imploding campaign is due to the fact that the Republican is "a terrible candidate." But we know the real reason John McCain is in "deep trouble."

John McCain is losing because he's been wearing gay sweaters!

How do we know that? Because John McCain says it's so, according to Radar Online.


In the final days of his imploding candidacy, John McCain has taken a page out of Richard Nixon's play book, finding increasingly bizarre explanations for his political failures. Strangest of all: He reportedly feels his handlers forced him to wear "gay sweaters."

According to one insider, the knit-picking was the crescendo of a tirade by the Arizona senator, in which he blistered aides about the minutiae of the campaign. While many septuagenarians live in a perpetual state of sweater weather, McCain reportedly declared his frustration with being told to don the perceived homosexual outerwear in order to look younger and more approachable.

The Mr. Rogers-inspired wardrobe was on its finest display last spring, when the candidate wore a roomy black snuggly while standing under the pounding Iraq sun. Washington insiders wondered why the campaign would place the candidate in such obviously awkward garb.
