I disagree with your assessment of McCain's personality.
Having stated that, McCain has betrayed the conservative movement over and over again and can't be trusted, especially when it comes to nominating judges.
He is personable and even glib. That is true whatever one thinks beyond that. He also, while in the survice, performed well as a supply officer, whatever one says beyond that. As for the rest of what you say, that is why I asked. I am baffled by such a criticism of Governor Romney that then offers up Senator McCain as somehow different. I don’t see the difference and can even say that a comparison works in favor of the Governor, who, while coming to views that we can identify with late in the day, does not appear to be likely to go back on them, which is somewhat different than going back and forth. Flipping may be better than flipping and flopping. I will also concede that Senator McCain can be right about things as he was about the need to change the Iraq strategy to that advocated by General Petraeus and that he, as a former supply officer, has a good sense of logistics in warfare, which is very important. But I can’t see in any way that one would be against Romney for the reasons stated by the poster and instead back McCain who is at least no different and possibly worse on the points raised. I think it important that we examine these finer points instead of making blanket assertions.
