Will the real John McCain please stand up

While cleaning out my stockpile of unread magazines this weekend, I stumbled upon this lengthy piece on McCain in Rolling Stone and ended up spending the better half of Saturday morning reading it, which says a lot that I stuck with it because I tend to not be a huge fan of long-form journalism. While I feel everything written about politics these days (wether it be from the right or left camp) needs to be taken with a grain of salt, I thought this was a really eye-opening piece about McCain. And, yes, Rolling Stone is a music magazine, but when everyone seems to be turning to Comedy Central for their nightly news these days, does that really make it a less-reliable source?
