Supposedly his last reelection was his most difficult yet? Of course, that could be because he's fairly old.
I'm not from the US (and I'd be considered very left leaning in the US!), but as a former Republican presidential candidate it would seem unsurprising that McCain has backing wouldn't it?
I haven't heard any allegations of corruption or scandal around him either.
What am I missing here?

Well, looking at that one is about 'the Keating scandle' from the 1980s where 'Mccain was cleared' and the others were his anti-corruption statements.
Huh. Maybe google is showing different results for people in different locations or something similar? On my setup, after about the first five results, about half the articles are negative on McCain.
He seems like one of the better reps. Why are you singling him out? I mean, yeah, sometimes he chooses party over country, but at least sometimes he does the reverse.
