36. it pains me, because he is really growing on me
as a VP pick. But I agree, I'm afraid of the "Women can't Fight" article (even if it was from '79, of course it would be brought up, and we can't really afford to piss off female Hillary supporters on the sexism issue).

Lol. And of course the "penis in mouth" passage in the book would be brought up, which is ironic, because...John McCain offered this book review for him as part of the marketing for Webb's book!

“James Webb’s new novel paints a portrait of a modern Vietnam charged with hopes for the future but haunted by the ghosts of its war-torn past. It captures well the lingering scars of the war, and exposes the tension between the dynamism of a new generation and the invisible bondage of an older generation for whom wartime allegiances, and animosities, are rendered no less vivid by the passage of time. A novel of revenge and redemption that tells us much about both where Vietnam is headed and where it has been.”
— Senator John McCain
