The Education of Shelby Knox

According to Cliff Schecter's yet to be released book The Real McCain, quoted by Raw Story, the Republican nominee is just a teensy bit sensitive about his bald spot.

In his 1992 Senate bid, McCain was joined on the campaign trail by his wife, Cindy, as well as campaign aide Doug Cole and consultant Wes Gullett. At one point, Cindy playfully twirled McCain's hair and said, "You're getting a little thin up there." McCain's face reddened, and he responded, "At least I don't plaster on the makeup like a trollop, you cunt."

As if women voters needed another reason not to vote for the Maverick. Need another? Check out Seth Grahame Smith over at Huff Po. (McCain evidently hates 'gooks' and Chelsea Clinton too!)
