In ten long pages, <i>Rolling Stone</i> reviews the careers and lives of John McCain -- sometimes in his own words, sometimes in the words of his colleagues on both sides of the aisle -- and paints a picture of a man who should, frankly, be allowed nowhere near the White House. From his early Navy days, to his imprisonment in Hanoi, to his post-war political career, to his campaigns for president, it's hard to reconcile what's there to what the common myth of John McCain is, even as recently tarnished as that myth is -- save that the narrative rings frighteningly true and consistent.

If even half of it is accurate, the choice on November 4th is crystal clear. I strongly suggest reading it, especially if you are a McCain supporter.
