Is McCain’s bio tour working?
While Sen. John McCain’s campaign is remarkably happy with the way his “Service to America” biography tour has gone this week, some Republicans say they are not so sure he’s using his time wisely.
Sen. John McCain speaks Wednesday at the U.S. Naval Academy Stadium in Annapolis, Maryland.
On Thursday, McCain stopped at a hangar in Jacksonville, Florida — the place he arrived when released after 5½ years in a Vietnamese prison.
Thirty-five years later, the GOP candidate came back to promote his campaign by talking about lessons he learned.
“I once thought I was man enough for almost any confrontation. In prison, I discovered I was not. I tried to use every personal resource I had to confound my captors, and it wasn’t enough in the end,” he said.

Joining him were family members rarely on the trail — three children who, along with McCain’s ex-wife, waited there while he was a POW.
“My daughter, Sidney, was an infant when I first left for Vietnam,” McCain said.
