McCain is always talking about going after big government. However, he's also always proposing huge, costly government programs to advance the things he believes in.
McCain does not remotely resemble a small government conservative, nor does he resemble a social conservative.
I'm still left with trying to convince myself that he is the best of our bad choices. However, I'm not sure we can keep electing liberal Republicans. It seems the are more successful at pushing our government leftward when in power than the Democrats.
McCain is an idiot.
