It's not however do you believe that Bush, Cheney, Rove, Rumsfled just got lucky?
They say the educated tend to have a lot of luck.
Education and intellect help. Rove and Rumsfeld aren't dummies. They're just ethical eunichs and moral dwarves. Bush is all of that, AND, at best, he's a mediocre intellect, as well.
Every time McCain has done so many things I consider really dumb. The OP's post is just one example, but he doesn't impress me as the brightest candle on the menorah.
I don't know enough about McCain's ethics to get into it. He has a mixed history, some of which looks very positve, but I lost all respect for him when, after being swift boated by Bush and Rove's crew, he stood on that stage with Bush and backed him for President.
I wouldn't have expected him to back another candidate, but I'd have a lot more respect for him if he had just stood silent. As it is, he sold his soul for political gain.
