The disclosures about
the lack of vetting provide a view of the real John McCain, as opposed to the media created figure of the BBQ Master. He's fundamentally not interested in actually running things. Governance itself is boring. The presidency would just be a long pageant in his honor. The most observant and prescient line of this election
was written by Digby:
John McCain is the man George W. Bush was pretending to be, right down to the flight suit.
