BBC on John McCain
There is a fantastic article on McCain that the BBC did. I think they are right, McCain is doomed because he won't compromise on what he thinks needs to be done either in Iraq or on the borders of the US. America doesn't want a man (or person) who actually sticks to principles. They want someone who will tell them what they want to hear and make the lie seem palatable.

You know, that is exactly what McCain wants you to think. What a maverick, and so forth. He's doomed, but it's a noble effort, so give him money so he won't be quite so doomed.
Of course it is. and he isn't quite as idealistic as the article makes him out to be. But his stances on Iraq doom him in a general election and his view on immigration doom him in the republican party.
Which I think is too bas since I generally agree with him on both of those issues.
