He does support the Presidents troop surge, he voted yes to go to war, and has given his "unwavering support" for the Iraq War again & again, but does not say "troops"!
In the late 1980s McCain was named in the embarrassing "Keating Five" scandal in which he and four other Senators provided routine help to Charles Keating, who was secretly manipulating savings and loan banks.
They found him "not substantially involved" but slaped his hand for "questionable conduct."
During the 2000 election, McCain was criticized for his continued use of an ethnic slur in reference to his Vietnamese captors. He told reporters, "I hate the gooks.... I will hate them as long as I live." At first, he stood by his use of the slur, saying that it was "the kindest, the kindest description I can give them."
Sure he appologized, but so did Trent Lott & Strom Thurmond!
And to top it all off, as of Feb. 2007, The State of Arizona is Organizing To Recall John McCain-------> http://www.recallmccain.org/
