[Rhodes22-list] Political - McCain, Me First

[Herb Parsons]

What do you mean he shouldn't expect an acknowledgement, it WAS 
acknowledged.

Also, his "opinion" in that instance will never be "proven correct". He 
was speaking of my opinion for me, and he was wrong. And, got called on 
it (not by me this time though, he was recognized for what he was.)
