McCain: 80 (This is up from his 65 in 2006, and close to his lifetime rating of 82.)

Once again, the devil is in the details:

Out of around 250 +- Republican Congressman, McCain was at #171 and he only managed that by missing 15 of the 25 votes that the ACU rated.

McCain missed voting on two abortion bills, including a vote on the "Mexico City" policy, Hate Crime legislation (Lefty Inspired), Left wing expansion of Health Care, Biofuels, and Coastal drilling.

Not much of an 80% record if you ask me.

I sincerely doubt he would have had an 80% if he had voted his philosophies on the economic, oil drilling, and bio-fuels legislation votes.

I also find it quite disturbing that he missed over half of these IMPORTANT votes, I know he was campaigning, but that even makes it worse. He has a responsibility to his constituents in AZ, to his party, and to his country to be present to vote against the kind of crap the Dems put into play with these types of bills.

Just for poops and giggles I perused your postings. It seems that you do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING here except beat up on McCain relentlessly. That’s all you do and it’s to the point of being obnoxious. Now, I personally don’t like McCain and have smacked McCain pretty hard myself. But frankly, you have a smell to you that I don’t like. You smell like a rat to me.

It’s one thing for conservatives to beat up McCain but it’s entirely another thing for rats to sneak on board.
