        The Straight Talk Express launched the Swift Boaters and IMO was the last honest presidential campaign. If you are hated by both the far left and right you are doing something right.

        “Adventurism” that led to half a million Iraqis and thousands of soldiers murdered in vain. “Adventurism” that McCain was pushing long before Bush/Cheney began fabricating a basis for war. Odd that the most glaring consequence of McCain’s actions gets buried in so many pieces.pic.twitter.com/kCZUDf80GA

        You should have. He was a ghoul and an evil person. Let his family grieve for him, the rest of us have better things to do.

        I wrote his name on my ballot in November 2000, but I could not pull the lever for his VP choice in 2008. Now, I wish my (former) side of the aisle had more like him.

        Thank you for showing both the good and the bad. Most of what we are hearing today would lead us to believe he was a perfect politician.

        at that moment 'principled' John McCain realized he would have to choose between what he believed and his ambitions. Ambition won in a rout, like it always did with him.
