Washington Post columnist Chris Cillizza published a piece Tuesday calling on journalists to “stop talking about Hillary Clinton’s health.” However, the topic of whether a presidential candidate is physically fit for office wasn’t off-limits for Cillizza in 2008 when Arizona Sen. John McCain was running against then-Sen. Barack Obama.

 

Cillizza’s recent column — “Can We Just Stop Talking About Hillary Clinton’s Health Now?” — called attention to conservative websites pushing the conspiracy theory that somehow Clinton is physically unfit to be president, even though her doctor has released a letter stating otherwise.

 

But in 2008, even after John McCain’s health records were made public, Cillizza wrote an article for the Post titled, “McCain’s Health: What It Means.”

 

In the May 2008 column, Cillizza called the early medical records released by McCain “promising,” but later in the article, he went on to write, “[T]he Arizona senator’s campaign is well aware that concerns about whether he is well enough and up to the job are potentially perilous for a candidate seeking to win the age versus experience battle with youthful Sen. Barack Obama (Ill.) in the fall.”
