Signature-McCain.jpg

JOHN McCAIN
This is one frightening signature. The lurching script suggests instability and a distorted worldview. But, in fairness, his writing arm was injured in Vietnam.
Warning Signs: Pointed, tortured loops are typical of criminals like Lee Harvey Oswald. An erratic rhythm and wonky size jumps say loud and clear: Keep some Thorazine at the ready.
BOTTOM LINE: Either his mind or his arm is shot. Could be both.



Signature-Edwards.jpg

JOHN EDWARDS
So much for Edwards, the folksy, empathetic Southern gentleman: His whiplash of a handle reveals a loose cannon fixated on his own failings.
Warning Signs: Heavy-handed pressure hints at a frustrated man, in this case disappointed by his life (squashed lowercase letters). The extreme right slant is born of a reckless, girlish impulsiveness.
BOTTOM LINE: Not a person you'd want near nukes.
