2. include a picture of McCain from his pow days?
I think a current picture wold be enough to scare people away from voting for him.

4. T shirt: Mccain's message of hope: 100 years of war in Iraq and your job
isn't coming back.

Fits nicely on a bumper, too.

7. I wonder
You know, I've been thinking about things and I've come to discover that no one cares. No one cares that we torture people. No one cares that we admitted to it. They will just say, "If it takes torture to save American lives then I'm all for it." Most people think this way. Conservatives don't believe waterboarding is torture. I think your shirt would be preaching to the choir.

However, if we had images/videos of people being tortured (more than the Abu Grahib) things might be different.

Then have a picture of a smiling McCain (preferably looking a lot of Golem)

or

Torture = Compassionate Conservative
"We torture because we care..."
