From the Los Angeles Times:
The rigors of campaigning caught up with Cindy McCain on Wednesday. She suffered a minor wrist sprain when an "enthusiastic supporter" shook her hand at a fundraiser.
Later in the afternoon, she stood beside her husband, GOP presidential hopeful John McCain, wearing a soft cast on her right arm supported by a black fabric sling that sported a sparkly brooch.
"I'm absolutely fine," she said.
...The injury occurred at a noon luncheon at the Shenandoah Banquet, Golf and Conference Center in West Bloomfield, Mich., the first of the day's three McCain fundraisers. The handshake aggravated an old carpal tunnel condition for which the candidate's wife had wrist surgery several years ago.
That supporter must have been very enthusiastic.
I'm sorry Mrs. McCain suffered the injury, but I'm glad it's not John McCain walking around with a sling.
That would just be more fodder for comedians and MSNBC commentators to make more lame jokes about "old man" McCain.
