Uncle Joe McCain

Michael Kranish of The Boston Globe profiles Senator McCain's little brother (age 65), Joe McCain, a stage actor and former reporter, who is trying to stand by his brother by staying away from scandal and fighting the temptation to profit off the name:

 Some years ago, he said, he was offered a lucrative corporate deal, but realized that the only reason he was being wined and dined was because his last name was McCain. The experience saddened him and made him wary, and he said he has rebuffed such overtures ever since.
