Humorous article. The 'race to the center' means run to the left in reality. It didn't work for McCain before why should it work now?
Not my choice, but after a year of Nancy, Dodd, et al, he will look better. And with the choice between him or Hillary or Obama or ALGORE or the Breck girl; well it would get a lot easier to hold my nose and vote for him.
A lot can change and I choose to vote for the lesser of two evils as opposed to not at all (hold my nose and vote) in general. I just don't see McCain making it through the primaries against any realistic R candidate I've heard of yet.
