The point is that McCain is still pretty much of a conservative compared to his Senate colleagues. He is hands down more conservative than the 44 Dems and 1 Independent, and more than or equal to 18 Reps. Moreover, there are plenty of other Reps in the 80s including Isakson, Frist, Bennett, Isakson, Roberts, Hagel, Dole, Santorum, Thune, Alexander, and Thomas.

Good old Joe Lieberman who many Reps are crying about how unfairly he has been treated has a lifetime rating of 17. Feingold has a 12 and Hillary a 9. Even RINO Chafee has a 37. It is all relative, but John McCain is certainly more to the right side of the political spectrum than the left.
