I'm uncomfortable with the idea of trying to pull McCain's family history into any sort of attack on him. It essentially condones the idea that we're somehow guilty for the sins of our dead relatives.

I don't think McCain ought to be dragged into this arena, unless he has stated somewhere that he thinks slavery was justified.

If anything, the McCain camp can use this as an arguing point that the McCain's have allegedly been fair with their authority in comparison to the status quo.

Probably best to leave this one alone.
