It's a question often asked about the senator once known for working with Democrats and driving his own party crazy, who is now seen as a party-line conservative.
In an exclusive ABC News Subway Series interview, McCain asked, and answered, the question himself.
"I heard that during the presidential campaign, too. 'What happened to the old John McCain?' Then I heard it in the primary: 'What happened to the old John McCain?' Who was the old John McCain?" McCain said. "The old John McCain and the new John -- the present John McCain -- I fight for what I believe in. I'm a fighter. I enjoy -- one of the reasons I miss Ted Kennedy so much -- it's because a fight not joined is a fight not enjoyed."

By who?
This is ABC News telling us that McLame changes his stripes depending on whether he’s running for office (once every six years) or not.
McLame is a @sshole that must not win again.
"Actually, there are five or six of us in here, fighting to get out and take over. Something about a split personality, my analyst says, I think."
Palin is making a big mistake supporting socialist McAmnesty.
He and Ted are/were the poster boys for term limits
Throw in mummified Bobby Byrd also
“”... who is now seen as a party-line conservative”
By who?”
By the voices in Jonathan Karl’s head perhaps?
You’re a RINO sell-out and media whore, Juan.
Regardless of what he is saying now, McCain is a RINO.
RINO John has got to go. I he would have moved against BHO as hard as he is against JD things might be different. But, thanks to a wimpy campaign we got the ONE.
He’s lost it.
STFU, John.
Somebody needs to fix this guy up with a teleprompter. As a conservative I think it a critical error to be in the midst of a campaign and start bemoaning the loss of the ‘red’ diapered Teddy Kennedy. But maybe I overestimate the numbers of free thinking voters in Arizona.
BTT
That's the problem with McCain, he thinks this is all a game. Why not? He doesn't have to live by the rules, he never has. John McCain never grew up, he's still a kid playing games.
If McKennedy misses dead Ted so much, I’ve got an idea........hey, McKennedy, see those pills over there?
*#@*, that man is a piece of crap. What seems to be McCain’s problem? And Romeny and Palin endorsed him! I think I’m going to go mad.
I wrote this before, I hope the era of fourty year Senators are over!
