McCain the 'Punk' Goes Back to School

Once 'McNasty', Presumed Republican Nominee Praises Teacher's Influence

John McCain is a punk. At least that's what the editors of his high school yearbook thought.



It was a fateful three years ago that the "Punk" first crossed the threshold of the High School," wrote the editors of the red-leather edition of "The Whispers," a glossy yearbook chronicling the achievements of the 1954 class of Episcopal High School in Alexandria, Va.

"His magnetic personality has won for him many life-long friends," the yearbook continued, "but, as magnets must also repel, some have found him hard to get along with."

More than 50 years later, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., returned triumphantly to Episcopal, a little less "punk" and a lot more "most likely to succeed."

The Original 'McNasty'

McCain traveled back to the private school's campus Tuesday, the second stop on a week-long biography tour intended to reintroduce the senator to the American public.

"I'm happy to be back at Episcopal, my alma mater, which I have many happy memories of, and a few that I'm sure former teachers, school administrators and I would rather forget,"

McCain, who in addition to "Punk" was known as "McNasty" during his high school years.

If they have to dig back to 1954 to find dirt, then McCain doesn't have much to worry about...
