Another great article from the Washington Post. These days when I tell people that I used to like John McCain they look at me like I'm shoveling babies into a coal furnace. That article pretty well surmises why John McCain isn't the same guy I would have gladly voted for eight years ago. I guess loosing the nomination to Bush in 2000 and then watching him systematically destroy 224 years of Democratic progress (and shitting on The Constitution) has had a "win at any cost" effect on McCain.
Update:
If I thought for one moment that McCain was only acting like this in order to get to office and then he'd go back to being a "Maverick" then I may have still voted for him. The problem is I'm not going to risk letting Annie Oakley run our country head long into the apocalypse.....and kill all the polar bears....and moose....and Russians....and pro-choice supporters....and evil doers...and well, everyone really.

I totally agree. McCain has shit on moderate republican's like me and has dishonored himself. I no longer consider myself a Republican and my support of Obama has my grandfather spinning in his grave.
It was bad enough when "The Straight Talk Express" went of the rails but the whole Palin thing is just crazy. If you'd told John McCain ten years ago that this crazy ignoramus would be his running mate he probably would have punched you.
