I love how you guys keep repeating this on FR as if it was "shocking". If you guys bothered to crack open a history book, you'd realize EVERY REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT SINCE LINCOLN HAS APPOINTED "DEMOCRATS" TO HIS CABINENT. The only thing shocking would be if McCain became the first President in history to appoint ONLY card-carrying Republicans to every position in his administration.
The GREAT Ronald Reagan appointed lifelong DEMOCRATS Bill Bennett and Lauro Cavazos to HIS cabinet, as well as appointing DEMOCRAT Paul Volcker as Chairman of the Federal Reserve and DEMOCRAT Jeane Kirkpatrick as UN Ambassador.
Shocking, eh? I guess things would have been much better off with President Walter Mondale. Can't stand the thought of having an administration consisting of 5% Democrats so you'd rather an administration with 95% Democrats win.
I can't believe so many idiots on FR are so ignorant about history.
