The Club for Growth commends Senator John McCain for calling for a new free trade agreement with the European Union.

Well, down goes the CFG.

We don’t have to worry about negatives about free-trading with the EU. Their labor costs exceed ours. I imagine it’d be the Europeans worring about work being outsourced to the U.S.

CFG's expertise is limited to economic issues. I've found them to be reliable straight shooters on economic issues. If they say something positive about McCain, he's earned it. They do not pass out their compliments cheaply.

However, CFG has no expertise on national security issues, where McCain is a disaster with his open borders stance. CFG has no expertise on first amendment issues, where McCain is a jerk with his sponsorship of McCain-Feingold. CFG has no expertise on environmental issues, where McCain is a dupe with his buy-in of global warming. But CFG is highly credible on economic issues where McCain has been decent.
