Life in a box

Geez, I guess the "McCain doesn't exploit his POW years for political purpose" myth is totally dead, right?


update: I wrote the above before McCain took the stage, when the repetitive telling of his POW story seemed a bit excessive.

But in his speech, his story of being a POW was by far the most compelling part. It's a gripping story, and as I've said before, he's a great American. But as a certain conservative pundit suggested recently, this isn't merely a personal narrative contest. This is about the future of the country, and who is best equiped to lead us.

I'll probably have some more comments on the speech later.
