Surely McCain must be aware of this. I don't know what it's like in the rest of the country, but even amongst me and my lefty friends, we all hold him in extremely high regard, and some would vote for him over Kerry.
this is what i don't understand. i agree that mccain has a high degree of integrity, but on just about every issue, he's a straight-ahead republican. he's not even a centrist. i don't see how he could appeal to anyone on the left, except in the pure sense of respecting him as a politician.
I think that's the appeal of McCain that even Leftists like me have...I respect him for being who is and true to heart and mind and for his constituency. I really don't agree with his politicking for Bush because I just don't see that he belongs to that fanatical mindset.
But I do like John McCain as a person and a politician.
George Bush is who he is and true to his heart and mind. The problem is, he is an ill-informed, unintelligent, bumbling, evil liar, his heart is black, and his mind is largely absent.
