Nothing except his ACTIONS, as opposed to his rhetoric, over the last several years.
Such as, MortMan, his out front ACTION in being an advocate and supporter of Iraqi Freedom - and particularly the Surge and Gen. Petraeus when it was hugely unpopular to do so...????
Is that "rhetoric", MortMan????
It is interesting that a man puts his Presidential ambitions second to emphatically doing what is right in defending this nation (in addition to spending 5 1/2 years in a hellhole of a North Vietnamese torture chamber/prison, refusing an early release until the other POW's were freed) and you term this "rhetoric"...
MortMan, I regret getting personal but you punched my button:
If you say that McCain's manifest actions of duty, honor and country are just "rhetoric", how about supplying us with some examples of your REAL actions, so that we inferiors can, in all humbleness better distinguish between action and rhetoric...
