McCain Keeps Rolling Up Those Points
John McCain has carefully and forcefully pushed himself to the head of the Republican Presidential hopefuls for the 2008 nomination. His latest play to build a compromise for the filibuster issue in the Senate paints him as a stabilizing and moderate face in our increasingly polarized electorate. Coupled with his continued support of the President’s Iraq policies and his statements of belief that G.W. would not have lied to the American people and you have a Republican who comes across as a team player but one who is not afraid to compromise with Democrats if need be. He presents himself as a good Republican who will support the President, most of the time. But he is not one who is owned by the extreme right. Such tactics will serve him well if he manages to win the nomination.
