I can only think that John McCain is suffering from the early stages of Dementia.
The John McCain of 2000 was a different man.
In the 2008 election, not only has he turned against every single thing he has ever stood for, he trampled those principles into the ground and then spat on them.
He renounced his own immigration reform bill!
He kow-towed to the far right of the party after years of saying they were the problem, not the solution.
Something is very wrong with McCain - or he was fooling us all those years.
There is an excellent article in this week's New Yorker on the subject.
Their take was that he wanted to be President so badly, he was willing to do anything to get it - and lost everything he had in the process.
I'd be willing to bet he loses his Senate seat. Cindy will dump him, and with the pre-nuptuial agreement, he will be flat broke and living in Sun City, Arizona in a double-wide before long.
A very sad end to what could have been a great man.
When you abandon your principles, all is lost.
