Did John McCain have a stroke?

Left-leaning Shadowfax openly wonders, after watching some video.

This is one instance where I’m going to call this oft-respectable blogger out for it.

As I mentioned before, I’m undecided and McCain certainly has his shortcomings. However, watching partisans engaging in Fristian-style video doctoring to score political points leaves me to question the motivation, and thus the credibility, of Shadowfax’s analysis in this case.

Update:
Orac and Dr. RW also comment on the issue, both suggesting that Shadowfax’s medical view of McCain may have been clouded by a partisan lens:

Well, if I present to an ER with Bell’s Palsy please don’t anybody give me tPA.

Ouch.
