Should It Matter That McCain Didn't Wear A Flag Pin?

From David Turner, Dayton, OH: What about John McCain not wearing a flag pin on his jacket during the first debate. If a Repbulican goes without a flag pin, he's confident in his patriotism and has nothing to prove? And if a Democrat goes without a pin he's unpatriotic or worse? Just wondering.

Here is where Rep. Jack Kingston, (R-GA) on Feb. 27th, 2008 said it was "o.k." to question Obama's patriotism for not regularly wearing a flag lapel pin.

Time Magazine ran a story May 14, 2008, questioning whether Senator Obama was flip-flopping on the issue.

But, as David points out, Senator McCain gets no such flack.
