Because McCain says it? His record says shows us the direct opposite. It shows he is far more likely to cut a deal then fight with the Democrats on anything.
So why should we trust his words over his actions?
Hey! MNJohnnie!!
This is the THIRD TIME that I have had to CALL YOU ON THAT PARTICULAR LIE.
This is what McCain actually said in 2006 about the Iraq Study Group Report recommendations when he refused to back down from championing The Surge that is now winning the war:
He should go push a Fed Spending Cap bill, or Earmark Reform or making the Bush tax cuts permanent or a fully funded Border Fence bill.
He needs to back up his words with some actions. Words are not enough.
