Report: McCain Taking Herbal Memory Supplements

New York Daily News:

Campaign reps for Sen. John McCain obtained an herbal supplement touted to enhance memory and keep energy levels up for the candidate before his joust with Sen. Barack Obama, a source tells us. Four-time Super Bowl champ Bill Romanowski, whose company Nutrition53 produces the capsule Neuro1, said: "I won't confirm or deny that Sen. McCain is using our product, but it's phenomenal for any person with stress and an overwhelming travel schedule."

The Phone rings at 3 am. John wakes and calls out to Cindy: "Do you know where the phone is?"

I hope McCain doesn't O.D. on it and knock himself out in the final debate. Neuro1 is one heck of a drug....

THEY KNOW! This is my fourth post about the fact that my father recently passed from complications due to Alzheimers.

For about 6 months I have been sounding the alarm that McCain shows signs I and my siblings missed early on about 16 years ago. Seven years after those first signs he was completely incapacitated. The problem is that this disease manifests in sudden drops not a slow gradual decline. They also are worsened by travel and stress.

Case in point, my father traveled to Israel to perform, he was a performer had travelled all his life and was a road warrior, after this trip he was in bed for three days and was never the same after that. Although he continued to perform it was a remarkable change in his ability he scheduled was radically scaled back and within a year he couldn't perform anymore.

Not that he thought that we had to step in and save him from his autopilot, he fought against it until he couldn't. McCain at any moment could have one stressful episode, one trip and it would be Ronald Reagan all over again. Cindy isn't strong enough to be what Nancy was in Reagan's final days so who will run our government? The neocons who surround him, the lobbyists? Certainly not Palin and if that were necessary do we honestly believe she would not be run by her advisors or hard right VP? This election is too serious to get this one wrong!

If McCain campaign reps are reporting this, sounds to me like they are concerned about his memory loss. We've all noticed it, but they see more of him behind the scenes - especially when his adrenaline is down and his guard is lowered. Big red flag....

Combined with the Aricept, it should make him unstoppable.

The fundamentals of the pharmaceuticals are strong.

Hey McWhereTheHellAmI ... it ain't working - ginko is a scam, the marketing of which was aided by deregulating the drug industry ... but you already knew that, you just can't remember it.

Maybe he should take tranquilizers for his anger issues.

I'd ask for a refund if I were you, Johnny. Those supplements are obviously not working.

How unfair.

A clinical study would require him to debate without using them before making a judgment.

He might have been as coherent as Sister Sarah without them.
At least in the debate he was able to keep his delusions straight.

If I was that company I wouldn't be bragging. He's a walking advertisement against them.

He is a walking advertisement that the product DOES NOT WORK.
