Of course they weep. That too is catharsis.
And it has not escaped my notice that there is hardly a reference to McCain in HuffPost today.
I put this idea out elsewhere a few days ago but I think it is worth repeating here. As people do the necessary washing up after the election, and that includes the inevitable post mortem on the McCain campaign … what do you make of my suggestion here about McCain's underlying motive for chasing the Presidency. Where McCain's true colours are concerned, my opinion is that he just wanted to go one-up on his dad just like George (W) did with his father. George (H) won the Gulf War but did not push on to take Baghdad. W went to war in Iraq to demolish it, steal the oil and tp grab Saddam Hussein. In running for President McCain tried to do the same. He just couldn't cut it in the Navy and make Admiral like his Dad and Granddad. He failed to extend the family tradition. So what's a guy to do? Well, he went for POTUS instead; a position which incidentally also makes him CinC, which would have put him a few rungs higher up on the ladder above his ancestors, but by another sneaky route. Anyone for a game of chess? From ChandraC
