Senator McCain — has never done anything in a manner to suggest he is presidential material...

Near the bottom of his class at Annapolis.
Was involved in the destruction of at least 3 aircraft - OURS.

One of the few POWs to come home with questions of behavior as a prisoner and the receiver of unique “attention” by the enemy.

Divorces his injured 1st wife who stood by him while he was a POW - and worked for his release. It is reported she still adores him and would vote for him..

Marries a trophy wife who just happens to be a Beer Fortune heiress.....who steals drugs from a charitable health care office.

Gets involved in the Keating Five Saving and Loan scam, suggesting he profited from defending and interceding for Keating with the Government investigation...

With Kerry - co-chaired the Senate “investigation” on the truthfulness of Vietnam’s POW/MIA reporting status, leading to normalization of relations with Communist Vietnam.

Won no friends in the POW/MIA and Vietnam veteran ranks for his treatment of the families who didn’t believe the Senate’s whitewash of the POW/MIA “investigation”.

Becomes the darling of the Left Wing Press - as the icon of the RINO gang...

McCain/Feingold “Campaign Finance Reform”.
McCain’s position on illegal immigration.

McCain was ALWAYS toast...
The public has finally wised up and come to see him for what he is.......an overrated, over compensated, under performing, back stabbing POS...

Semper Fi

honestly, I am no McCain fan, but I have never seen any evidence that his conduct in Vietnam and as a POW was anything but honorable....

he recieved unique attentions because his grandfather and his father were both full Admirals, and his father was the CinC Pacific Command of the US Navy during much of the Vietnam War. To the best of my knowledge, because of this the NVA was willing to exchange him in return for something at the time of his capture but McCain refused to be paroled ahead of anyone captured before him. He served like 4 years in a POW camp when there was a possibility that he could have gotten out after a few months.

now, as a politician I dislike the man. He tries to pander to everyone for votes and recognition— conservatives, liberals, moderates and the news media all at once. But it was in Washington, not Vietnam, that he first sold out
