He'll be releasing everything about his repeated cancer surgeries. But he won't release his psychiatric records, which hold clues to the effect of his Vietnam captivity.

    Excellent article

    McCain's refusal to release his psychiatric records is a major issue. Many thanks to Salon and to Mark Benjamin for this excellent piece. The media are giving McCain a free pass on many things surrounding his campaign. I can only hope that his psychological health won't be one of them. In my opinion, McCain's a nut case on par with George W. Bush.
