McCain Geneology: Angry Scotsmen, What Did You Expect?

Matthew Yglesias cites Wikipedia who cites anonymous sources on John McCain's public website who claim that McCain is a descendant of Robert the Bruce.

In addition to having two first names, the Bruce first fought with the English against the Scots and then fought with the Scots against the English. Then he waged guerrilla war for many years before dying of leprosy. Then his heart was used as a talisman in the crusades.

Like great great great great great great great great great grandfather like great great great great great great great grandson.
