I don’t buy the whole ‘neo-con conspiracy’ thing. Frankly, Republicans aren’t smart enough for that kind of thing. But if you want to say that Soros and McCain were in bed together, that would make perfect sense. McCain/Feingold is what allowed Soros to gain control of the Dem party.
Man, tin foil hats all around! :D
In the past, McCain claimed that the fallout and stigma from the Keating Five scandal actually hurt him more than his years as a POW in the Hanoi Hilton.
I know, that seems unthinkable to the rest of us, -but that's just the way McCain is.
Given that, I can now see why relishes his role as a rogue Republican, a.k.a. "Maverick", winning the plaudits of the press.
In the end, it's actually more important to him to be praised by the media as an "honorable", "courageous", "model of integrity" than to win the White House. All the accolades would have ceased if he and the hick, Palin, had prevented their "Golden Boy" from becoming the first African-American President.
