How come not much was said about McCain's huge gaffe when he responded to Tom Brokaw but called him "Katie" instead of "Tom?" This, to me, is a huge red flag. I mean, it's understandable for older people to be forgetful but when you make such an obvious mistake in front of the American public, it indicates there may be a problem. As an employee of a 76 year old boss, I know firsthand when someone is too old to do their job. McCain's cognitive functioning should certainly be questioned. Mind you, I'm not saying he shouldn't run because he's too old. I'm just worried what else he might forget if elected president. I have had this on my mind since the Obama/McCain debate #2.
