The McCain strategy...
Suck up to Bush now to win the primaries, then change his tone to win the general election?

Just asking.

2. In Richard Nixon's words,
"Run to the right in the primaries, run to the center in the general election."

So far as I know Nixon never said "run into impeachment problems in office," though.

3. McCain ain't smart enough to have a strategy. He couldn't even

5. McCain will do whatever it takes to win
Accepting Jebthro as his running mate will keep the Bushies on board the Straight Poop Express. John seems to believe this will insure his success... and considering we don't know what these lying bastidges are cooking up for the '08 election, he may be correct.

6. McCain learned you can't win the GOP primary without kissing the ass
of the religious reich, and he's tired of losing.
