The Raw Story | Book: McCain temper boiled over in '92 tirade, called wife a 'cunt' - There's no video of this incident, but the story is confirmed by three reporters who were there. McCain was asked about it didn't deny it. Is this a big deal? On the one hand, it's just one word that an ex-Navy man let slip at the end of a long day. On the other hand, it seems to be part of a pattern of anger and verbal abuse. What if he lets some foreign leader get the best of him at the end of a long day of negotiating? Can we risk having this man be our head of state? On the third hand, if Obama's preacher's words can be run in an endless loop on television, then this sure as hell is a big deal, too. It's something McCain actually said, not just one of his friends.

By the way, my wife made clear that if I ever called her a cunt I would have to finish the sentence 3 months later when they unwire my broken jaw.

I think that in time this will make it to the news and to the public's attention, along with the fact that he abandoned and probably cheated on his first wife after she waited for him during his time in Vietnam. Oh, and she was crippled from a car accident, too. Will the "family values" voters really choose this man over Obama?
