    Serious question: have any of the "twilight McCain" pieces of the last two weeks even mentioned that he *endorsed Trump* in order to save his own skin in a contested primary?

        Look at his book titles: "Hard Call." "Why Courage Matters." "Character is Destiny." Then imagine if McCain had decided that defeating Trump was more important than his own reelection. https://www.amazon.com/John-McCain/e/B001IGNQI8 …

        The time span to revisionist history is getting shorter and shorter.

        I think you're generally right about that but this situation where people rehab someone who's about to die or has recently died is not new.

        The guy did some sleazy stuff as a politician. He let greed get the best of him. But he is a war hero and he served our country for the bulk of his life. He is laying on his death bed as we speak. I have respect for this man.

        I have said a dozen times, I can disagree with McCain's politics AND still respect the person/hero. There is not a politician alive that has not had to do an "icky" deal at some point to survive/win. We just need to identify the ones for whom it's the exception not the rule.
