I don't get it?
McCain's war record is what it is. He served with distinction.... did his duty, flew combat, put his life on the line and suffered in a POW camp.
I really cannot see how anyone would attack that or attempt to spin it as a negative in some way?
The thing about McCain that I do not like is that I do not see anything in his military record that qualifies him to be President of the United States and his military career is the pinnacle of his life's achievement as far as I am concerned. Since he left the Military, what has he achieved? What has he LEAD? What executive experience does he have? What huge and clear successes can he point to as examples of the benefits we can expect from his leadership?
Since he joined the US Senate..... the National debt has gone up by over 10 times, the US has totally squandered a victory in the Cold War, US entitlement obligations have more than doubled, our campaign finance and election system have become grossly corrupt.... the general failures go on an on.
I fail to see how anyone can rationalize things to the point where McCain appears palatable. He is a poster boy for all that is wrong with Washington. He IS big Govt. failure and the corruption of career political operatives.
McCain is an excellent example of all that is wrong with our political system. So is Obama for what its worth....
