Where is the John McCain You Tube moment

In this age of the internet with web sites like You Tube, TMZ, and The Smoking Gun it is hard for a celebrity to keep a secret or behave badly in public. Some ill chosen words and questionable reaction finished George Allen's re-election and possible presidential hopes. Some recycled video of Mitt Romney and Rudy Giuliani that have statements from the past contradict current positions and statements. So with all the cameras and web sites out there it seemed like it was only going to be a matter of time before we had some kind of classic You Tube explosion from John McCain. A man who is known for having a bad temper, you could not help thinking that there was going to be an eruption from Mount McCain. Even a few months ago when his money was low and it seemed like his campaign was finished he managed to keep his temper. In fact I think it would be almost understandable if he had got angry and had a blow up about answering the same questions over and over again about his viability. However other than a couple awkward moments in some townhall meetings he has made it through without becoming a You Tube victim. There is still a long way to go and McCain will have lots of contact with the public, and my friends I have confidence we are going to see an explosion from John McCain at some point especially if things do not turn out well for him.
