Ross Perot: ‘McCain is the classic opportunist.’

by aaron on June 12th, 2008

Interesting article from the Daily Mail about John McCain’s history, and how he screwed around on his first wife with a variety of women until he finally settled on Cindy Lou Hensley, divorced his first wife, and married Cindy a month later. Great guy with great moral fiber. Clearly. 

Ross Perot…believes that both Carol McCain [McCain's first wife] and the American people have been taken in by a man who is unusually slick and cruel – even by the standards of modern politics.

‘McCain is the classic opportunist. He’s always reaching for attention and glory,’ he said.

    See the Frank Rich NYT column about McCain’s Suspension bridge to nowhere….

    By the time he arrived, there already was a bipartisan agreement in principle. It collapsed hours later at the meeting convened by the president in the Cabinet Room. Rather than help try to resuscitate Wall Street’s bloodied bulls, McCain was determined to be the bull in Washington’s legislative china shop, running around town and playing both sides of his divided party against Congress’s middle. Once others eventually forged a path out of the wreckage, he’d inflate, if not outright fictionalize, his own role in cleaning up the mess his mischief helped make. Or so he hoped, until his ignominious retreat.
