Besides, it is McCain who better fits that statement.
McCain would close down Gitmo. McCain would end waterboarding.
McCain would give Democrats power to squash conservative judges for US Supreme Court.
McCain would open our borders to millions of NEW illegal immigrants.
THAT sounds like a liberal to me.
Romney's record, in fact, is fairly conservative -- despite his 15-year old dumb pandering statments which the Romney haters have repeated over and over and over -- ad naseum.
McCain, if elected, will abandon his pledge to make the tax cuts permanent in exchange for “spending cuts” that will never materialize from the RATS.
McCain will be worse in domestic policy than Richard Nixon, who was horrible.
“Besides, it is McCain who better fits that statement.”
For the record, I am not a McCain supporter. I am hoping for a new candidate, now that Thompson appears to be out of it.
I would not call McCain a “liberal”, though he is on the particular issues you cite. McCain defies description of any one word like “conservative” or “liberal”. He’s...McCain.
What offends me about him is that he takes such pleasure in bashing his own party. McCain’s harshest words are always for his fellow Republicans, and he engages in LoveFests with John Kerry, Lieberman, Kennedy etc.
That being said, I pretty much know where he stands. Romney is a big unknown.
