I had no idea about this man's character or what kind of morals he had
until someone mentioned his treatment of his first wife Carol. They told me
she stood by him after his return from Vietnam even through she had been
through a bad time of things herself following a terrible car accident.

I found this article (one of many) that details McCains earlier marrage.

Not the kind of person I thought he was at all.
