McCain cut off his ties to Hagee. Took him long enough, but he still cut them off.
Of course, it wasn't 20 years too long like the time it took Obama to throw his pastor under the bus.

I liked the day when preachers mostly stayed out of politics or when they did they received their proper publicity, meaning they were ignored. This new prominence of religion in politics is a threat to good government and should be stopped unless we want to end up like the Moslem countries.

I 'would' have liked the days when election campaigns were about actual issues, and the candidates ran on a campaign that told the American people how they would solve those issues.
Hasn't existed in my time though.
