Everyone of our soldiers that conducts himself/herself honorably is a hero. The Vietnamese govt offered to release McCain because his father was an admiral and John McCain refused to go without his comrades in arms. Whatever else John McCain is, he is a hero. When he did that he wasn't going to run for President, he was just being who he is.
His judgment today is obviously impaired. He picked Sarah Palin. Very scary.
Don't waste your vote, vote Green or Independent in the next election.
