I wish he hadn't been torpedoed in 2000 and was POTUS when 9/11 happened. Or maybe it doesn't happen.

A rare moment of complete consensus. The world we currently live in would look much different, IMO much better, if McCain hadn't been slandered by Karl Rove and was elected POTUS. Even if 9/11 still happened our response would have been confined to Afghanistan and I'm confident we'd have snagged Bin laden much sooner. It was borderline heartbreaking seeing what McCain became in '08 in an attempt to win the office.
