The wife US Republican John McCain callously left behind - UK Daily Mail - quotes from Sampley

IMO, great article if you haven't read it.
quotes:
Ted Sampley, who fought with US Special Forces in Vietnam and is now a leading campaigner for veterans’ rights, said: ‘I have been following John McCain’s career for nearly 20 years. I know him personally. There is something wrong with this guy and let me tell you what it is – deceit.

‘When he came home and saw that Carol was not the beauty he left behind, he started running around on her almost right away. Everybody around him knew it.

‘Eventually he met Cindy and she was young and beautiful and very wealthy. At that point McCain just dumped Carol for something he thought was better.

‘This is a guy who makes such a big deal about his character. He has no character. He is a fake. If there was any character in that first marriage, it all belonged to Carol.’

1. And why do we see this in a UK paper and not in the NYT or the WP?

4. May be true, but Sampley is no bargain. Hates McC and Kerry for taking away Vietnam MIA business.
He'd hit families up for money to look for people, and Vietnam normalization and closing books ended that. That's after Kerry went down looking for bones; it was thorough, but Sampley still hitting out.

I am sure above is true, but we need a better messenger.
