I love that she laughed at the censure!

That was an inspiring story. I like how she is her own person, yet she was able to have a great and loving relationship with John. I also like that she is still living an amazing life, while also acknowledging that sometimes you have to be a little uncomfortable to do the right things in life.

How I miss the days when we could calmly disagree to disagree. Where did all this hate come from😢

[edwardactivity]

The fact that Jill Biden is the reason Cindy and John got together is so adorable

[barbaram]

She seems like a very down-to-earth, lovely person. Great interview.

Though I never agreed much on policy with John McCain, and likely would not agree all the time with Cindy, they seem like good people--the sort of folks who we need more than ever right now. I am glad that she was able to endorse Joe Biden.

A beautiful woman with substance! She is inspirational.

John was a big spirit. He's so missed.

[nickmunoz]

We owe so much to John and Cindy!
He saved the ACA and Cindy helped to save our freedom and our democracy!

[MollyBrown-fi]

Cindy could easily replace her daughter (megan McCain) on 'The View'.

[yogabbagabbs]

I didn’t know she drifted and I’m finding more and more about Cindy McCain and dang I love her so much she’s amazing.

[petuniapop]

Cindy is one of those rare republicans nowadays who, even though we disagree on 99% of stuff, I could see myself sitting down and having a great conversation. Thank you Cindy for what you did to help get rid of 45. :)

I may not have always agreed with Senator John McCain but, I respected him greatly! I also respect his wife for taking a good and moral Christian stand!

I live in Arizona, I'm a Democrat... and I LOVE this woman. She is and has been an inspiration to me. I pray she is successful in creating a strong R party as I believe two strong parties are important for a balance in our country.

Yes...my husband brought happy commotion to the house as well.
He also died of a Glio Blastoma in 2012. I miss him every day. He was 59.
