Maverick and not the ford variety....

Kind of a silly article of the real Mavericks saying they are ashamed of McCain calling himself a maverick..

I didn't know the history of the word.. pretty neato read..

I thought it was interesting that the Real Mavericks son was such a firebrand libertarian and his grand daugther works with the ACLU..

Samuel Maverick,a cattle owner didn't brand his calves. Hence, unbranded calves were "Mavericks". There is another interpretation.

did you read the article.. cause it explains all about that..

Nope, didn't bother to read the article. Sorry if I gave an information overload. Maybe there are others who didn't read it.

but McCain is just like a maveric, no computer, bad milage and unreliable on cross country trips. Unless you turn one into a sleeper, then it can be awsome

i had an awesome Maverick sleeper for a long time, loved that car..

wouldve made an awesome challenge car, unlike the person discussed above...
