Yeah...it is the primaries. The moderates don't do the big voting. It is the far left and far right, so whomever you are, you have to cozy up to them for a bit. Look at Lieberman...lost the primary for Senate becuase he was too far right, but won the general election as and independent. I think party primaries really are a sham.
It's sad that one of the most intelligent canidates we've had in years is having to sell himself out so much to get past the primaries. If the american people actually thought about their votes instead of going by name recognition, he would have won in 2000, and we wouldn't be in such deep shit like we are now.
After posing as a stalwart against torture, he gladly gave Bush dictatorial powers under the table and carte blanche to keep torturing defenseless human beings. John McCain, John Warner, and Lindsey Graham, in posing as objectors and "compromisers" on the Military Commissions Act, have back-stabbed all Americans and should be held accountable for their treasonous behavior.
well, he may have changed a bit but i believe that it is related to the next election, i think he still has the core beliefs and know how to do a great job.
Sad Fact: McCain used to be great, and has turned into a massive disappointment. He'll do and say anthing now. I never thought he would be like that, but he is now.

Hmm Yeah, I had faith in him, too. Maybe he received death threats from within the government.
