    McCain's Greatest Moral Failing

    Was the failure of his first marriage? I'll bet that must have made his current wife feel great.

    I just keep chuckling at the mere thought of what my wife's reaction would be if I told the world that my greatest moral failing had been the termination of a previous romantic relationship. Of course, I would never dream of humiliating anybody like that, let alone my wife.

    Seriously, am I the only one who feels that way? C'mon, it's Sunday...we can gossip a little.
