  • I think this should not be a big surprise. Many are hesitant to question McCain's motives for anything he does or doesn't do. He seems to be such a nice guy, doesn't he? I urge only that voters remember an ancient admonition that things (and people) are seldom "what they seem to be."



    That may very well include the "nice old guy with integrity" image that McCain has carefully cultured and grown over the past years. I've not done it myself, but I suspect that a really good dig into his entire record in the legislature might show a lot more than the "image" he's built for himself as "the maverick" to the extreme right wing of the Republican Party. And BUSH says, it would "cost TOO MUCH?" EGAD!
