I don't quite understand this media's fascination with McCain & he always gets a pass about his actions and not questioned about HIS actions which clashes with that of Republicans but only about his opposing views which media think could hurt Bush?
Does John McCain Stand For Anything?
McCain has now aligned himself with a new movement to bolster pro-choice Republicans. Christine Todd Whitman started IMP-PAC as an adjunct to her book, It's My Party, Too, and an effort to expand the influence of pro-choicers. The strategic partners for IMP-PAC include Planned Parenthood, two different Republican pro-choice groups, and WISH List, which supports pro-choice women for Republican primaries. According to the National Review's Kelly Conway, John McCain has joined its advisory board.
As a member of the IMP-PAC Steering Committee, the letter suggests, you might rub shoulders with such members of its Advisory Board as former President Gerald Ford, former U.S. Senator Bob Dole and Senator John McCain.
Does Senator McCain stand for anything except elections any more?
Its simple... the media are liberals (democrats in effect). McStain is a LIBERAL republican.
Worse yet, he is more than willing to be the 'backstabber' from within.
The media get to write the story they want, but say "hey, we didn't say it... its one of THEIR OWN GUYS that think this".
The quid-pro-quo is "You sell out your party, and we'll make you 'the best of a bad alternative'"

It is a true sign that Republicans are the majority big-tent party when factions develop to steer the party into different directions. I have my letter from Todd Whitman's IMP-PAC on file, to remind me that all Republicans are not on the same page.
I think that McCain's open alliance with her is his Jump the Shark moment. It should be a fascinating year, if our blood pressures can stand it.
It's quite simple. If goaded just right, John will come out with some sort of "left handed compliment" (damning with faint praise,) about Bush that the MSM can glom on to.
Morning anita, from your perspective, what are the social issues McCain supports other than pro-choice? He's pretty much blown off the AZ GOP and he seems to support more government over less. Beyond that, I'd like to find more.
A couple of years ago, when asked if he'd like to be Kerry's running mate, McStain said no. Among his examples of how opposite he and his better half in the Senate are, McStain stated that Kerry was pro choice and he {McStain} was pro life.
