John mccain missed the 1960s. His captivity in Hanoi covered the exact period-1967 to 1973-that we think of as that era. He's a fun-loving '50s guy whose recreation consists mostly of hiking, watching football and barbecuing. When he took a day ofFlast week to recharge at his cabin in the mountains near Sedona, Ariz., McCain spent most of his waking hours cooking for guests. On the porch sit no fewer than four "Turbo" gas grills. "You know where they put in that putting green [at the White House] ?" he asks. "I'd put in grills." His specialty is spicy chicken, which he patiently grills for an hour and a half over low heat without turning it, so as to "cook everything bad out of it-a purifying thing."
