Had he known how to fly a plane, he might not have been shot down. There are serious questions about his actions in the prison. His voting record is wretched. He was involved in a banking corruption deal -- and skated.

And, as you point out, he tried to put Sarah Palin one heartbeat away from the nuclear codes.

Fuck McCain. He's a fraud. Always has been.
