Which is more likely, McCain dying of health/age or Obama getting assassinated?

If Obama gets assassinated it's an inside job, not something that some crazy nut jobs would do. Do you honestly think you can just assassinate the president, unless you're on the inside?Dark-Sithious

yes it is possible

How ironic would that be if Obama gets assassinated and McCain dies on the same day :lol:

what would happen :?

More Bush? :P

I guarantee both men will be alive 8 years from now. McCain is a millionaire who is in great health. He has beaten cancer and has access to the best health care in the history of the world. His mother is in her late 90s and is still going strong. Obama would not get assassiniated. The security surrounding the president is outstanding. You're nuts if you think no one tried to shoot Clinton or Bush.famicommander

Obviously you don't know much about McCain.

Actually that is not something to laugh about, I'm not saying that particular event would unfold, but Bush could suddenly be given some sort of emergency powers due to some catastrophic event.

Possible yes, but highly unlikely unless you're a professional Assassin.

The 2nd scenario is pretty much impossible.

Then the VP-elect will assume office.

2nd, McCain doesn't look THAT oldJIT93

Do you believe everything you're told, everything you see?

I doubt McCain will win now, after his recent slipup. Not sure if you've heard the latest news but apparently McCain bragged about his leadership abilities in conjunction with the approval of the "Bailout". He even stated that he had united his fellow representatives to vote for the proposition. How do you think voters will react when McCain can't even get support from his own?Dark-Sithious

Actually McCain was asked to come back by his fellow republicans, and he never bragged about it. And I never heard that he supported the bill.

Well, I do not know what sources you get your info from. I get mine from a Norwegian newspaper, and I'm well aware of that information may be highly subjective or even false. But can't you say the same thing?

Palin versus Biden possibly?

Um... neither is very likely, but McCain dying of old age or health issues is more likely.

Last I heard he was still looking over all the details but I never heard if he voted for it. I also heard that when Obama came back to washingtion the first thing he did was blame republicans for this, when he knows Barney frank and the democrats started this whole situation. And Nancy Pelosi called republicans unpatriotic for not getting involved on the bill, when she excluded them from the negotiations. Democrats man, I'm telling ya.

McCain iis one of the oldest people to ever run for president, and if sworn in he will be the oldest serving president in our nations history....I think kinda. I'm not 100% sure on that. With that said, he also has a long history of medical problems like cancer. I wouldn't be all that surprised if he dies in office. Will he? I don't know.Vandalvideo

Thats how all assassinations start from. And McCain "death from old age" Comon that has assassination writen all over it. First woman president?!

Really? I wasn't aware that his health was failing. Maybe someone should inform Senator McCain.

I don't know about that. As far as I can tell, Obama's been spewing self-righteous dreck all throughout his campaign. I doubt this little slip-up of McCain's will do too much.

I didn't know releasing his medical history to a small group of reporters for several hours is public knowledge. Who knows what other illnesses the reporters didn't have a chance of seeing.

Do you really think a bunch of skinheads are a match for the secret service?

I would say that there is an equal chance of either event happening.MattUD1

And that seems to be what the poll is saying...

After Reagan being shot while walking down the street, I think it's almost impossible to get close enough to even attempt to assassinate a president. I also think McCain will live for another eight ears at least, regardless of the outcome of the election.Rhazakna

Sarah Palin better get in touch with a hitman then

If he loses he may lose his will to live. :P

So which one is more likely if elected to the presidency, McCain dying due to poor health/old age while in office or Obama getting assassinated by white supremacists?Slick_Rican

Both parties bring this up and both act like it's so offensive.

The chances are about equal, in my opinion.

Democrats spew "racist" bull everytime they hear it. They like to think we're all tolerant here except for some grandpas and crazy southerners wearing white bedsheets.

Republicans act like a clean bill of health is sufficient for a formerly cancer ridden and physically abused older man in his 70s.

The fact is there's a chance of both, and I don't think Biden or Palin could do the job better than the other if it DID happen.
