Caption McCain Upset

John McCain talks to reporters while in flight from Atlanta to New Orleans, La., Friday, March 7, 2008. Topic was his conversation with John Kerry about being his running mate for VP in 04. McCain was not happy.

"McCain blames himself for the breakup of his first marriage. McCain wanted a fuller, faster life than he found back home with his first wife. Carol Shepp McCain, who lives in the Washington area, has spoken kindly of her former husband, says she supports his candidacy, and attributes their divorce to ''John turning 40 and wanting to be 25 again.''..... McCain did what he believed was honorable: He provided generously for Carol, who had been seriously injured in a car accident during his captivity, and their three children, including two adopted sons from her previous marriage. ''If you can ever have an amicable divorce, this one was,'' said George ''Bud'' Day, a lawyer and POW friend who drew up the papers in 1980.
McCain filed for and obtained an uncontested divorce from his wife Carol in Florida on April 2, 1980;[19] he gave her a generous settlement, including houses in Virginia and Florida and financial support for her ongoing medical treatments, and they would remain on good terms.
Everyone McCain "verbally abused" over the past 20-30 years and even his first wife and children all have publicly supported him for President. (see comments #136 further back for list of McCain victims ). Friends and family are forgiving while outside critics unrelated to McCain will never forgive. What matters most is the former.

Obama, Clinton and Nader are in this presidential race too..if you are undecided, they would appreciate your vote. Can't morally vote for the war, if you are against it (symbolism) Tough call! for many.

I made no threats and you are out of line characterizing what I said as such. I only suggested that a traitor leave.

We are going to take a beating in the general election in the Congress, it is beyond obvious. Tearing down the most conservative choice we have for President is an act of treachery.

Why do you let this site be used to advance the cause of Liberalism in the form of Obama and Clinton?
