The NY Times story on John McCain seems to be an expose on his lack of discretion and bad judgement on what is proper. I had certainly forgotten about his totally improper intervention in the matter of Charles Keating, and I am glad to have been reminded of it. My father all along has been saying he does not trust John McCain, especially he does not trust his well known hair trigger temper.
However, all of this seems to be marginalia to the true story. First, cherchons la femme: a Ms. Iseman. (A lobbyist linked to Mr. McCain)
Note how extremely close the name "Iseman" is to "Iselin".
The handler of the Manchurian Candidate, Raymond Shaw, was his mother, Mrs. John Iselin.
A coincidence?
Furthermore, the Manchurian Candidate was a combatant, he was fighting against a Communist foe, he was taken prisoner in a war zone, and he was held prisoner for a number of years.
It was during those years of incarceration that the Communists began their brainwashing of selected POWs.
What really went on in the Hanoi Hilton?
Was it anything like what went on in Machuria during the Korean War, when young Americans were brainwashed and then sent back home, ticking time bombs in the control of their various handlers, waiting to the exactly right moment to go off?
Was the Hanoi Hilton this?
Or was it this?
and this?
Please note that in the 1962 version of The Manchurian Candidate directed by John Frankenheimer, the Iselin home is cluttered with Lincoln paraphenalia. As "Richie Rich" points out in his review:

Frankenheimer obviously wanted it clear which side of the political spectrum his villains were coming from. In former times, Lincoln was the primary symbol of the Republican party.
Are we going to becomes dupes to the insidious plottings of Dr. Yen Lo and his NeoConservative Stooges yet again?
