You passed over the greatness of a man who stared death in its sallow face for over 2,000 days, in the wake of torture by the enemy as motivated by pure, unadulterated evil, for a man in favor of the promotion of the very same evil. You neglected the fortitude of a man brave enough to better himself in the name of service to his country. You obliterated the necessity of a man with a heart understanding of sacrifice, hard work, and perseverance...

McCain, while not as bad as the far-Left Democrat Obama, was no model candiate nor did he exude greatness. The only thing I admired McCain for was his stances on spending, trade, and immigration. But the campaign finance reform bill, his stance on environmental issues, and his talk of greed by market participants was very off-putting. His military service (and his history as a POW) was irrelevent for me.

Irrelevant?
Not for most FReepers I would guess, including me.
