You have to be kidding me McCain. Did you finally realize you were losing the battle against Rice and start to try to dig your way out of the hole? Okay, in a sense you won. She's said she won't accept being a nominee for SoS.

Than his time in the Hanoi Hilton. I respect his service, it was honorable. However he is a changed person. His divorce of his first and loyal wife seemed to be for shallow reasons.

Some where along the line he lost his integrity.
