Running him as the Republican presidential candidate, you have to be kidding. He is inconsistent, untrustworthy and undependable. (That's my frustration w/ Bush right now, he thinks he's McCain). McCain is the personification of the Manchurian Candidate. Show him the card and he does incredibly stupid things. See the following list of his behaviors.:
* Campaign Finance Reform (CFR) is a direct attack on the heart of the first amendment and is nothing more than incumbant protection.
* His "torture" amendment accomplished exactly nothing other than accusing our military personnel of torturing detainees and giving cover to the anti-war kooks and France.
* He has regularly opposed tax cuts. And tax reform.
* His position on immigration is amnesty only.
* He has "supported the war" out of one side of his mouth and simultaneously criticized the Administration for it’s conduct at virtually every opportunity.
* He thinks Roe should not be overturned.
* His position on judges is unclear. People more informed than me, expect he would appoint Souter/Kennedy types to protect CFR.
* He attacked the SwiftVets for telling the truth about John Kerry and defended his "good friend" Senator Kerry while considering the VP slot on the Democratic ticket in ‘04.
Seeing him in action, I firmly believe he landed on his head when he parachuted out of his jet over Vietnam. He doesn't understand you can't talk your way out of what you behaved your way into.
