I personally don't disagree with the idea of why congress cares about McCain's vote. But, I still disagree with this last bit. In today's technological age he doesn't have to physically be there to communicate his position. If he wanted to, he could debate the issue, mull it over with his advisors like he is anyway, and lay out where he stands on the issue from afar. Being physically present is not a requisite part of giving his opinion.
It could easily be said that putting himself physically there and not voicing his opinion (when he and everyone else knows why it matters) is only heightening the drama and is a ploy to get him more press (and press that has nothing to do with Palin sounding ridiculous with Couric last night or the Davis story that was picking up steam).
