Thanks to Presidential powers (CiC and Vetos) Congress is being kept in check. The Democrat majority since 2007 has been utterly unable to stop President Bush’s Iraq strategy which is reaping success. McCain won’t be different on this issue.
But the next Congress in both Houses will probably increase their number of leftist politicians to the point where they will have a voice, get their leftist agenda forced upon all of the general public, and where they will be able to easily override any and all vetoes that a President McCain could make during his entire Presidential term. Also, John McCain is such a political wuss when he’s not being a political maverick, and he did even think about joining the Democratic Party not that long ago. John McCain says that he’s willing to work with Democrats, but he just as equally doesn’t say that he’s also willing to work with both Republicans and conservatives! Remember, John Kerry almost picked McCain to be his ‘04 VP, and McCain still hates both the Republican Party and all of conservatism while still pretending that he actually likes them now, just to get their votes. “Assiduous conservative back stabbing” McCain truly isn’t fooling me one bit!
