FYI - McCain supports the 2nd Amendment, and has NEVER voted for a tax increase.
FMI - How do you know he has a “violent” temper??
(He seemed pretty calm & collected on all the debates, etc. so far).
McCain was for the "assault weapons" ban and other dubious legislation.
McCain's temper is a matter of public record.
I also add as that a member of the Senate's group of 14 compromisers, he effectively blocked many Bush judges who would be on the bench now. They were not considered because the Constitutional option was blocked by Bush's own party members.
Do some research on your candidate. Two of many articles on his temper:
