...McCain has admitted his humanness and his mistakes. I like goodness, mercy, honor, faithfulness, doing the right thing and, in McCain?s case, being tough enough to weather the troubles sure to face him as President.

But I don?t know just what this is supposed to indicate. If you Google ?Michelle Obama? and ?trophy wife,? you get 23,600 hits. Frank Wershing, Dingmans Ferry, Pennsylvania...
