I think that John McCain is largely driven by guilt. When he was a POW he totally cracked. I'm not saying that I'm a better man, or that prison wouldn't have cracked me, but I watched a video taken by the North Vietnamese of John McCain signing a long confession in front of the cameras. He confessed to many atrocities, including killing civilians on purpose. He probably did kill civilians as a pilot in that war, and much of that was certainly intentional. The thing is that since then he has over compensated by portraying himself as some kind of super patriot, and red white and blue hero.
The other incident was his involvement in the "Keating Five" hearings. McCain was one of the legislators accused of ethics violations. He was one of the "Keating Five." The bribes and corruption that these five men engaged in were a disgrace to their offices. Since then McCain has posed as the man who wants to clean up Capitol Hill. It's just another over compensation to try to undo his corrupt exploits in the past. Sorry bud, we aint buying it.
To this great record, add the fact that he is known to have an uncontrollable anger problem. Just what we need. He is also impulsive, and erratic. A recipe for catastrophe.
