I heard he left his first wife because she was dying from something.
The “heiress” looks young enough to be his duaghter.
By the way, I think Coors is the Nadir of Bottled beer - it tastes like bubbly water. Hate the stuff.
The story I heard was the first wife was in a bad accident coming back from a POW/MIA fund raising event. She had been very active in the POW/MIA movement. When McCain returned home his wife was disabled. Somewhere along the way he met the heiress. Not sure if it was before or after he divorced his first wife.
I went to www.ask.com and put in “mccain wife disabled” and got the following in the first link:
“McCain dumped his first wife after she had been disabled in an auto accident. Although this woman had worked tirelessly to get him released from captivity, he did not hesitate to betray her with other women upon finding her crippled when he returned home.”
I goes on to talk about her family and drug problems. Her family is one of the richest in Arizona. Ol John did alright for himself!
