I wonder if he will shut his daughter up.

Looks like the people who ran Don Goldwater's campaign for governor in 2006 are involved with Simcox, I find this most interesting since McCain sits on Barry Goldwater's senate seat.

He might ask her to tone it down. He might also make light of it and state how wonderful it is that his daughter is free to say what she wants, since he’s such a good father. “I disagree with her, but I defend her right to be wrong.”

This guy is a snake. He’ll work it whichever way he thinks will buy him the most brownie points. If ever there were a ‘go whichever way the wind blows’ guy, this is a perfect example of one.

That’s weird, I didn’t think I hit the post button twice.

I didn’t comment on the Goldwater topic.

I respected Senator Goldwater. In his later years he made some interesting decisions, but I don’t think any of us is spot on with regard to every issue over time.

It’s somewhat sad when I see someone I’ve had a lot of respect for over the years, come out on the wrong side of an issue.

For instance, I never agreed with Reagan that a zero nuclear weapons option was ever going to be a same approach to our defense needs. That being said, Ronald Reagan would never have let our defenses down foolishly. He would have been unable to implement the zero option, and would have been sad about it, but he would never have done it in today’s world. At least that’s my take on it.

I view Barry in pretty much the same way. I respect him, but I didn’t agree with everything he said.

With McCain it’s the opposite. I don’t trust a thing the guy says. And over time, just because he makes a mistake and says something we like, we know it was a mistake and he’ll be back to his same old self in moments.
