Something to remember about John McCain going foward...

He really is a tempermental SOB.

This passage is particularly interesting:

McCain is fully capable of freezing out someone who has disappointed him. After the Arizona Republic, for instance, published a harsh editorial cartoon making light of a scandal involving painkillers his wife stole from a charity she founded, McCain refused to talk to the newspaper for more than a year. He regularly yells at or ignores fellow senators when he thinks they've done him wrong.

Okay to Chris Matthews and Tim Russert and Maureen Dowd for that matter, the guy is a hero, but who the hell wants to work for someone who POUTS like this? In the real world, this is the sort of behavior that seriously degrades one's performance review and leads to a leveling off of income at a relatively early age.
But if you are Chris Matthews' Dream Man on Horseback, Senator John McCain, it is a martial virtue in extremis.
