McCain tells a really funny, hilarious even, joke

You could tell it was hilarious. Why, even McCain surprised himself with the amount of laughter he produced. All from himself.
The joke? Visiting Lance Armstrong, he talked about Obama's upcoming visit to Paris, and the fact that he would be greeted by adoring throngs. "And that's just the press" was the punch line.
Pause.
McCain laughs. And laughs, and laughs enough he has to wipe his eyes.
Perhaps he hadn't read the joke ahead of time, and the punchline surprised him.

Yours, amazed at how inept his delivery can seem,
