McCain promised that if a pork-laden bill crossed his desk, he would veto it. A bill with more pork than the entire (insert your favorite pig metaphor here) actually crosses his desk, and he approves it. So much for that promise.

Exactly what I was thinking. Extremely disappointing, to say the least. I don't really have any satisfactory candidate to vote for this November -- but since the alternative is horrifying, I'll still be voting McCain (and hoping that Palin's more strict conservatism serves as an influencing factor and seeps into his skull a bit, though I am not holding my breath on that hope).

Since I’m in Illinois, where my McCain vote couldn’t possibly tip the election, I’m seriously considering again voting third-party. Until a week ago, I would have thought I’d be voting enthusiastically for McCain, but his leadership here has been abysmal.
