Can anyone name something that McCain has done since Obama was elected that has disappointed them? As far as I can tell, McCain has been one of the most stridently opposed to Obama’s agenda.

McCain has been relatively reliable since the election.

However, that's one of his problems.

He was relatively conservative...until he first ran for President in 2000. Over the next eight years, he became increasingly liberal -- seemingly just to poke Bush in the eye. He voted against tax cuts. Remember McCain-Feingold? McCain-Kennedy?

Then, in 2008, he ran for President again. And got even more liberal. He campaigned on global warming. He seemed intent on insulting conservatives at least once daily.

He was defeated. Now, he's running for re-election in Arizona. And he is a conservative, again.

Notice a pattern here?

McCain isn't a conservative. Nor is he a liberal. He is a rank opportunist.

He will say whatever he needs to say to get elected. Then, he will go to Washington and do whatever suits him.

We really don't need this kind of politician anymore.
