From what I've seen to date McCain has gone out of his way to be antagonistic and downright disrespectful towards his solid conservative base from the git go. This is not the first time he has rebuffed attempts by the social right to establish some dialogue.

okay--but in this case, he has not rebuffed him... when he actually does rebuff Billy Graham, then he can get credit/blame for it... until then, it's a scheduling conflict... do we want the media to get it right or not? our feelings about McCain should have nothing to do with how/what is being reported...

The McCain camp is trying hard to do an about face here. It's likely they quickly realized they screwed up as the numbers have not been looking too hot for him in the polls lately and are trying desperately do an about face in this matter it would seem. That they may need some of those conservatives after all. LOL, wouldn't that be a hoot.

For one I believe the story as written because he has a long established track record to date in ignoring his conservative base and chasing after the hard left in recent weeks. You can deny it all you want but that doesn't change the facts so far to date.

To blame this screw up on a scheduling conflict is about as lame as it comes across as sounding. That may sound plausible to the uninitiated but to those who have been around the block at least once knows better considering his dismal record on the conservatives to date.
