McCain: our lovable oaf

When I finished somewhere in the middle of my class (thanks to homework protesting/laziness), I got weird looks. When John McCain finishes near the bottom of his class, he gets a hardy laugh and a smack on the back.
When I screw up incredibly, I get yelled at. McCain crashes a few planes? Ho ho, have a medal!
If I ran for something and made vague religious references, I would be accused of using religion to further my ambition. McCain makes a few campaign videos using his POW footage and everyone loves it.

Yet if John Kerry was captured, I'm sure the neocons would have been up in arms about this sort of exploitation.
...maybe not. Kerry was pretty neoconservative himself.
