Sen. John McCain really does want to tempt the Republican base. ...

We've gotten our hands on an advanced transcript of this weekend's "The Chris Matthews Show" on NBC and the British Broadcasting Corporation's Katty Kay offered this nugget during the show's "Tell Me Something I Don't Know" segment:

"John McCain is going to be doing more of these themed tours of America, and one of them is going to be on energy and global climate change. It could get him into trouble with Republicans, of course, and with the base, who don't think there is much climate change going on, but it is something that he's very passionate about and he's going to be talking about it."

I think he’s working for the Obama campaign.

I am laughing so hard I think I hurt myself. That would be the cumulative act of a career of political betray from a guy who prides himself on his skills at knifing his own side in the back. That sad thing is, based on McCain's career, it not totally out of the realm of possibility

He wouldn’t have been fighting tooth and nail for McCain-Lieberman since 2003 if he wasn’t serious. You think prices are high now, wait until we have carbon cap and trade, compliments of President McCain. It will act as a hidden tax and raise the price of every manufactured and transported good. He’s a true believer, face it.
