[Rhodes22-list] Political - McCain, Me First

[TN Rhodey]

Herb, To clarify......I said "if" he is proven correct he shouldn't
expect list members to admit they were wrong let alone apologize. It sounds
like you remember the incident and I don't. It is duly noted that "his
opinion in that instance will never be proven correct."  I don't remember
the incident so I have no other comment.
