Ridiculous logic.

We aren’t electing her as President, we’re electing him and he’s the same today as he was the day before he chose Sarah. I like Sarah, but some folks are fools for falling for his game. He played it right, brilliant choice, and it worked. All the attention is on her. Meanwhile, he’s free to move, seemingly undetected, as far to the left as he wants. Bravo McCain. Bravo

Well maybe to you it's ridiculous.

However to my your post is ridiculous. There is no evidence McCain wants to move left. What there is evidence of is that he will work across party lines. And like it or not if you cannot do that then you cannot be effective.

Yeah, we’ve seen how effective his crossing the isle is.... among other things, we almost got amnesty in the deal. Had he been able to reach across the isle and, with the exception of late term abortions, compromised with Dems who say beginning of life cannot be determined and in the hope of saving at least SOME babies, compromised on PARTLY reversing RvW, oking the first trimester only, I’m guessing you might feel differently about how well McShamnesty reaches across the isle.

There is no evidence McCain wants to move left. What there is evidence of is that he will work across party lines. My take on McCain has generally been that his leftward movement was driven not by ideology, but his need for adulation. Democrats are really good at making him feel good when he shmoozes up to them, and I wouldn't have thought conservatives could win him back.

If he sees the adulation real conservatism can attract, he may be turned to the right side.
