Asked about ‘Game Change,’ the HBO movie about the 2008 election, John McCain said that he did not watch the film. He also defended running mate Sarah Palin, who is depicted as having a breakdown in the film. 

Palin “energized” our campaign, McCain said Sunday. “I admire and respect her. I’m proud of our campaign. I’m grateful that she ran with me.”

McCain also said the film has him cursing more than he actually does. I have a bigger vocabulary than that, he said.
