John McCain's actions (though not his words) would place him among the best of any living politician
Well, I suppose it depends on what you mean by "best".
He certainly appeals to Americans who respect those who
avoid responsibility and act in their own self interest.
He strikes me as the kind of person who is likely to find a
way out of past promises when a better deal comes along.
How else would could you explain the way he abandoned his crippled
wife for a pretty rich lady twenty years younger then himself?

How else to explain the many ways he's changed his position since 2000 in order
to gain favor with the far right? http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/story?id=1779141 http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/story?id=1779141
or his new position on torture? http://thinkprogress.org/2008/02/20/mccain-torture-veto http://thinkprogress.org/2008/02/20/mccain-torture-veto
- astine 18y agoWell, I suppose it depends on what you mean by "best" This is what he meant: if being open-minded were your highest priority for a politician If you had bean reading, you would have noticed this and spared us, yet another diatribe against a man that nobody here likes.
- bayareaguy 18y agoGiven the corrupting environment in which they work, I don't think being "open-minded" about solicitations and temptations to be a good thing for a politician, especially when it leads to breaking commitments.
- astine 18y agoIf you find it necessary to point that out, then you missed the entire point of the post.
