McCain is not an elitist!
You can't be an elitist if you graduate 894th out of a class of 899. :P

6. ANYONE who makes it through Annapolis
has my respect. Same thing goes for West Point and the Air Force and Coast Guard academies. The last man or woman in the class is still probably squared away better than 99% of us.

And for the record, despite his conservative ideology, I really don't think McCain is an elitist. He can be ornery, stubborn, misguided, etc, but I think he is basically a decent enough person.

7. Class ranking in the Acadamies is no indicator.
Look at George Custer - last in his West Point class, but he turned out OK.
