I still like how everyone thinks John "Greenhouse" McCain is somehow, in any way, right-wing.
I like how you think that the political center is somewhere in the vicinity of RHJunior.I still like how everyone thinks John "Greenhouse" McCain is somehow, in any way, right-wing.
And very fine judgments, at that. ED is the bowel of the internet.Whatever "RHJunior" is, it's blocked by Websense as "Tasteless." My internet filter is making value judgments now.

Just look at that right-wing drivel from the McCain camp. He's worse than Reagan!MIAMI (AP) - A top adviser is leaving Republican John McCain's presidential campaign because he doesn't want to work against Democrat Barack Obama.
Mark McKinnon, the chief media consultant to McCain, wrote in a campaign memo last year that if Obama won the Democratic nomination, he would not actively campaign against him. With the results of Tuesday night's primaries in Kentucky and Oregon, Obama claimed he had a majority of convention delegates.
McKinnon said Tuesday evening he was making good on his pledge, and was "moving from middle linebacker to cheerleader" for McCain.
"I'll still be around from time to time in my lucky hat," McKinnon said in an e-mail, referring to his familiar black felt cowboy hat.
The former Democrat worked for President Bush's 2000 and 2004 campaigns. After signing on with McCain, McKinnon stayed on even as the Arizona senator's campaign faltered, losing staff and running out of money before climbing back to win the New Hampshire primary in January.
He said last year that he didn't want to work against an Obama candidacy. Electing Obama "would send a great message to the country and the world," McKinnon said at the time, although he added that he intended to vote for McCain.
Any time the parties get together, it spells bad news for America.You would think that retaining McKinnon could have be valuable in demonstrating that the campaigns were an argument among friends; each struggling to hear its conscience, and heed its demands; each, despite its differences, united in their great cause, and respectful of the goodness of the other.

He doesn't have conservative positions on a lot of issues; energy, environment, government finance, affirmative action, gun control, etc., etc.Of course you know that these terms are relative. Just because his politics aren't to the right of Ghengis Khan's like yours doesn't mean he's can't be considered a conservative.
Go ahead; the Hillary and Obama campaigns will probably think you're working for them too.Today's talking points haven't changed. Do I still get Straight Talk points if I repeat them?
