Given the penchant of the media to probe every issue these days, it is inevitable every candidate will get a grilling about every detail of "interest". McCain may or may not have a serious cancer problem and you are right, if he has nothing to hide why not. On the other hand, medical records are perhaps one of the most personal things we all have. There may be things in his record not even related to cancer or his state of health as it relates to his ability to hold the office. Knowing the media/political spin that can be put on the slightest item these days if I were he I sure wouldn't take the chance of releasing my medical records if it could be avoided. However, as I said before, this is the nature of the game so he may be damned politically if he doesn't release them.
