Developments on "Don't ask, don't tell", John McCain, and how to feel okay after hearing what he has to say...

Informative article by Elisabeth Bumiller of the New York Times on what's going on with "don't ask, don't tell" right this second. To say I'm hopeful would be pushing it, but people are talking about it which is definitely something.
