On Saturday in Washington, DC -- where for more than 30 years he represented the state of Arizona and earned a reputation in Congress as a "maverick" -- late United States Senator John McCain was honoured by friends, loved ones, and even onetime political rivals. Former US presidents Barack Obama and George W Bush, both of whom McCain had challenged in their races to win the nation's highest office, delivered eulogies during the service at Washington National Cathedral.
