Did McCain really leave his first wife while she was in the hospital to be with Throphy wife CinnDee?

Question

now that's real family values, don't ya think?

Answer 1

Yeah he did and this was after he had vowed in church to stick with his first wife "for better or worse... ... sickness and in health....  ...till death do you part". Maybe McCain thought he said "...till death, or a rich blonde, so you part"?

Answer 2

She wasn't in the hospital, but she was debilitated by an accident which made her no longer the beauty queen she had been.

Answer 3

"Although he was still living with his wife, he was aggressively courting a 25-year-old woman who was as beautiful as she was rich."

"For a candidate running on character and biography, it is also an awkward time to remember: Mr. McCain abandoned his wife, who had reared their three children while he was in Vietnamese prisons, and he then began his political career with the resources of his new wife's family."

"No candidate could be luckier in his choice of an ex-wife than Senator McCain, and he must be the only politician around who could cheat on his wife and divorce her and still get her support and her campaign contributions today."
