McCain is a target-rich environment. Just the fact that, this week, the Supreme Court bombed his campaign finance brainchild should be enough to show he’s little more than an incumbent careerist willing to pass anything designed to keep him and his Senate pals in office.

But, as Andrew McCarthy pointed out in an interview with Front Page Magazine, McCain trashed W as a lawless torturer, and directly paved the way, through his law on torture, for treating terrorists as criminal defendants today. This means that, thanks directly to McCain, we now have a national security policy of waiting until the crime is committed to mobilize and...investigate.

Thanks, John.

OTOH, as mad as it made me at the time, McCain kept us from going nuclear over the judges a few years ago. Can you imagine if we had? We’d ALREADY be standin before Obmans death panels by now.

Good point. McCain (along with Specter) stabbed President Bush in the back at every turn. McCain is the most potent weapon that the Democrats have.
