John McCain Halloween Costume
September 22, 2008 by
Senator John McCain, Republican nominee for President of the United States, or POTUS as the secret service calls the President. Here are some ideas for a John McCain Halloween costume. The 
John McCain we know and see today is always impeccably dressed. This is bad news and frankly extremely boring for a costume on Halloween. To be sure there are some distinctive facial and scalp features we can work with but there is basically no costume to make other than a completely pressed and starched business suit. We will come back to the problem of costume apparel later in this article.
Senator McCain has short cut white hair. A trip to the barber or salon can get those for you easily. That takes dedication to your costume but what the heck. If it's worth doing, it's worth doing right. That, by the way, is something Senator McCain says often. There is one make up issue for this costume. Senator McCain has a slight bulge on his left side of the face. You can duplicate that by placing a small cotton roll, like they put in your cheek when you visit the dentist.
Senator McCain has had short cropped hair during at least two points in his life. This may be a clue to a different kind of John McCain costume. If you decide to be the John McCain of 2008 then off to the tailor or Sears or where ever you buy your clothes. It's a Washington, D.C. dark blue suit that you need for this costume. Again I say, boring! So what can we do?
How about this idea? You can be the John McCain that was shot down over North Vietnam and became a prisoner of war. You could be the jet fighter pilot before he was shot down or the disheveled prisoner in the Hanoi Hilton. Either of these two costumes would be a better than the 2008 McCain and you won't have to walk around with that cotton roll in your mouth all night long.
The costumer for P.O.W. McCain can be old gray or khaki color wants, with holes in the knees and a dirty white T-Shirt. The shirt should be kept fairly wet to represent McCain coming back from being water boarded in the torture rooms.
