McCain missed his golden opportunity to win this election in a landslide.
He should have been “naming their names”, “making them famous”, and proposing plans for “reform”. Instead, he voted “yea” for the pork-filled government take-over bailout bill.
Agreed. I can just barely accept that he might have wanted to mute partisanship while the bill was in process; but having voted for all that pork he has thrown away his trump card, unplayed. He cannot now attack pork barrel politics with any credibility.
