You have to remember perception is everything when it comes to getting elected. This is why McCain and the Republicans are even competitive in this election cycle. Don’t worry. A lot of these statements McCain makes to the drive-bys are just throw away lines. When it comes to governing, McCain is still an 80 percent conservative who will stick to his core conservative convictions.

You mean LIES?

ROFL! Yeah... I just love that "conservative" McCain-Feingold bill. And his Gore-Bull warming "conservatism" with the cap-and-trade scam. Or that "conservative" amnesty plan. Or that no-tax-cuts-for-the-rich "conservatism." 80%? I think not.

I'm not going to get into it with you. Those remaining 20% positions are very much important to us and we haven't forgotten them (immigration, campaign finance, etc.). But we have to stop Obama before we can further argue those points among ourselves.

Off topic -- Fox at Obama rally in Ohio, not much excitement seen, few comments by Obama heard over Major Garrott are usual class warfare. Obama has usual ahs and pauses in short taped interview about the storm ("Hope it diminishes, etc....).
