Any person who would give government the ability to regulate political speech should be hounded from office.

That includes not only McCain and Feingold, but every elected individual who did not go to the mat in opposition to McCain-Feingold.

Teh worst restriction on free speech in this country since the Alien and Sedition Acts. And look whose name is on it -- as lead sponsor.

A Republican pick can sometimes turn out to be a Souter, sometimes a Scalia.

A Democratic pick will always turn out to be a Ginsberg.

Exactly. McCain has earned himself a place in history as someone who championed the destruction of the republic. He is NOT a conservative candidate, and doesn't deserve our vote. This year we see clearly how party loyalty distorts political judgment. We must not be partisans -- members of a party -- but just vote conscience.
