I have to confess I hesitated to click on this article. I was steeling myself for some dark humor I’m not ready for. Many people are emotional about his illness not only because he is a great man but because he represents more than just himself. I think we liken McCain’s life of struggles and successes and setbacks while trying to keep indecency and corruption at bay, to what we are all dealing with as a democratic society. McCain’s illness has given the powerless feeling we have all been grappling with recently another boost. That frightens us. But he has also given us an example of how to conduct ourselves through it. Hopefully he will continue to do so for a long time.
