This is a guy who had a chance to leave a Vietnamese prison early and chose to stay until his fellow prisoners got out.

If he had gotten out early, his Navy career and political prospects would have been finished in the ensuing propaganda barrage from the North Vietnamese about America's privileged classes.

That makes him a good fellow POW... but not necessarily a good Senator (or pro baseball player, or good singer, or anything else).

Do you think the Censure vote was meant to “bully” him? The main purpose of the vote was to strip him of any funding from the State Party.
