I think the word "hero" is over used these days, but not in John McCain's case. He exemplified the word hero. When he was captive, and when he was on the senate floor he always did what he felt was the right thing to do, that takes courage. On a more personal note, my dear friend spent an afternoon with him, her words to me yesterday, "I spent a whole day with dear John McCain. He had his driver drop him off at the ranch gate and he walked the two miles in, LOL! He knew my dad and he berated me for being too tan (he still had band aids on from his skin cancer surgery). He was totally genuine and sincerely sweet."
