because of who his father was IMHO. Larry King plays dumb with Maher on the subject. Maybe we should ask Larry King to give this a watch where Jon Stewart had a bit of fun with McCain on the topic -- Daily Show: "John McCain: Reformed Maverick.

And in case anyone wants to nit pick about The Daily Show's bit of fun with the topic, here's Fact Check's post on just how many planes McCain actually "crashed" and how many were his fault. I don't think it takes away from Bill's point that he was a hot dog.

Maher also takes issue with King's assertion that the Religious right "made" McCain do anything and forced him to choose her. As he said, McCain was running the show, and ultimately it was his decision.
