This is Great News! For John McCain! 

A phrase describing something that is so obviously bad for someone that it is sarcastically described as being great news. Derived from the 2008 Election where FOX news tried to make any news pertaining to the election, especially bad news, as a positive some how for John McCain!
Fox News Anchor: "Today photos were found of John McCain sodomizing his illegal immigrant lawn boy Juan."

Fox News Pundit: "This is Great news! For John McCain!."

John McCaining

To have a very conservative strategy when playing Super Smash Brothers in hopes to just be the last man standing while accomplishing nothing during gameplay.

This usually includes avoiding contact with other players altogether while occasionally throwing projectiles or using an item. A person who was John McCaining will usually end the match with a win and only one K.O.

Generally, this will cause everybody to detect that said player is John McCaining and then focus solely on knocking them off for several seconds, creating an adverse effect.

This practice can often be detected by hearing a flood of "come on, step it up" and "you're too slow."
"I can't believe I'm already down to one life, I think I'll be John McCaining the rest of this one out."

John McCain Syndrome 

When you decide to do something when your to old and forget what you had for breakfast. And expect to run the country, so thus you have John McCain Syndrome.
"Issac did you see Spencer speak today up on the stand, he must have John McCain Syndrome the way he was forgetting his speech and mumbling about his many houses."

John McCain

The man that most anyone would agree should have won the republican presidential nomination in 2000, and would have been a far better president than George W. Bush. However, whether he would make a better president than Obama is highly debatable.

He is also a tough son of a bitch. He was shot down over Vietnam, took a bayonet to the groin, and was held (and tortured) for 5 years in a Vietnam POW camp. Don't nobody fuck with McCain.
Why didn't we get John McCain instead of Dubya?

John McCain Friend 

An acquaintance who you are fondly referring to, but you don't actually know this person very well, nor is he or she your friend.

Derived from Senator John McCain's frequent use of the phrase "My friends..." on the presidential campaign trail directed toward a large crowd of strangers. Strangers he was fond of, yes, but strangers nonetheless.
Christine: My friend from my huge college class and I were working together and she said...
Michelle: Wait, what was her name?
Christine: I don't remember.
Michelle: And she's your friend?
Christine: Uhh...
Michelle: So she's your John McCain Friend.
Christine: Yeah, that's a good way to put it.
