"Hypocrisy, my friends, is the most obvious of political sins -- and the people will punish it. We were elected to reduce the size of government and enlarge the sphere of free and private initiative. We increased the size of government in the false hope that we could bribe the public into keeping us in office. We lost our principles and our majority. And there is no way to recover our majority without recovering our principles first."
-- Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), quoted by the New York Times.
Too little, too late. Can't increasingly cowtow to all those political sinners for the past 6 years and all of a sudden act like you were yelling iceberg. You sold your principles to the far right base so you can get the nomination in 2 years, which you very well might, so good job. But you also got rid of the "mediocre democrat vs. outstanding republican" debate I was maybe going to have to have with myself in two novembers, good job there as well.
