I think you underestimate his arrogance. Something like 80% of Americans are opposed to amnesty. Yet after a brief flip-flop declaring that he has heard our concerns and understand our views, McCain quickly scurried back to the side of the fence where he is most comfortable.
A man who raises a finger to 80% of the electorate is probably not so concerned about the ill effects of a poorly chosen running mate.
I think McScum weasel dosnt want my vote anyway.
