Tom Moe was there with John McCain
Sarah Palin introduced Tom Moe during her electrifying speech at the GOP Convention tonight. Moe was held captive in Vietnam with John McCain. From the blog Covertress:
Moe was asked to explain his support of John McCain's candidacy. He answered by harkening back to his years of captivity. He described looking through a hole in the door of his cell and watching McCain being returned to a cell across from his. He said, "I think of that now, watching him come back from beatings and torture. He knew I'd be looking at him. He'd look over at the door and give a big thumbs up, no matter how beaten he was. The message was, they're not going to get us down. I look back at that, and I know personally of his strength.... Here' a guy with the qualities that can get the job done."
