[Just mythoughts]

McCain is no worse than the others when it comes to “dirty campaigning”. All the top guys a pack of liars when it comes to their records, so the ground is very fertile for body slamming opponents.

Sorry I totally disagree. Were it NOT for McCain and his brother Feingold the media would not have been given the power to make or break campaigns. I cannot think of one piece of legislation that Hillary Clinton rammed through Congress since 2000 and there is a long list of McCain Acts the sole purpose was to cut up and out conservatism. He is dirty through and through.

Thank Fred too. His McCain Feingold handmaiden.

Could it be that McCain's one driving goal in passing M-F was his own election as POTUS?
To answer my own question: Yes. It could be. Perhaps it is even likely. Why else has he been such a media whore all thru these years? Oh how the press does love their "maverick".
