Why was there never a McCain truth file at the time when it might have done some good?
“Why was there never a McCain truth file at the time when it might have done some good?”
Because McCain was doing so poorly, no one thought he was a threat. He simply rose to the top like spoiled milk.
FR Polls.....many didn’t even list McCain because he had so little support, often he scored below “other”......members only scores...

"Why don't you shut your political pie hole?"
Stifling the www? Online Freedom of Speech Act (H.R. 1606)
"1606 is needed because federal courts have ordered the Federal Election Commission to regulate "electioneering communications" on the Internet because of the Bipartisan Campaign Finance Reform Act (McCain-Feingold). If H.R. 1606 fails to become law, your Web site or blog could be shut down for the 30 days prior to a primary election and the 60 days prior to a general election should you express "electioneering communications."
