Hello,

Excellent overview of the problem with McCain. I met him in the early 80's, as my folks were active in AZ politics at the time. He seemed (to my 14 year old mind) to be a very smart and able man. My parents thought the same. Over the years, I have concluded that he has issues that can not be overcome, and should not be addressed during a term as President of the US.

Glad to be here, MOgirl

Thanks. Glad you're here too. I chuckle when people refer to McCain as the Manchurian Candidate because there may be some connection to the way he acts now as a result of the torture, or at least captivity, he suffered in Hanoi Hilton. Of course there are stories he received favored treatment due to his Dad and Granddad both being Admirals. I'd say his main problem is malignant narcissism.
