No Strings Attached?

Well normally I'm not one to be a political commentator, and I'm probably going to hell for this one, but it was my immediate reaction to this week's theme of "Strings" for Illustrationfriday.com I know John McCain has a handicap in his arm due to a war injury (and then some), but I can't help but think when I see him talk that he moves like a string puppet. Who's controlling the strings is another issue, that I'm sure everyone has their own answer to.
Interpret it as you will.
I don't think John McCain is a bad guy by any means, but I have no plan in voting for him. His VP pick certainly helped make my decision concrete. Thanks John and good luck next month! ;)

    Nice work...I saw a bit of the debate and it was very prominent how 'stiff' he was...on my own personal political comment I think both of them suck...we have a choice between a socialist fruit that will continue to build the nanny state and someone that is in the hip pocket of washington no matter how much he claims he is a maverick...
