John McCain must be a very knowledgeable guy.

After all, over the course of three Presidential debates he's told us that he knows how to:

  • get Osama Bin Laden;
  • fix the economy;
  • create jobs;
  • save billions of dollars;
  • eliminate programs;
  • heal the wounds of war.

Of course, the trick is that in order to tap McCain's vast fountain of knowledge, we have to elect him first (despite the fact that he's already a public servant in his role as a U.S. Senator). No, these secrets are his and his alone, and he'll only share if we make nice with him. It makes you wonder what other secrets McCain might be privy to.

In turns out that John McCain is a cornucopia of information,, and there is a meme going on at Twitter in which more of McCain's secret nuggets of knowledge have been revealed. Below are just some examples.
