McCain Says Something Nice About a Conservative…Sort Of

Fortunately, he didn’t say too much nice, so my world hasn’t been turned upside-down.

For some strange reason, McCain was able to get on the Leno show now that he’s lost the Presidency in his bid to be idiologically pure to his maverick principles.  He changed a full 20% of the conservatives into maverick conservatives, and convinced them to vote for Obama.  If nothing else, you can’t accuse him of being a hypocrite.  He wants to be a maverick, and he willingly lost an election so everyone else could be one too.

What’s not to like about the guy?

Anyway, while on the Jay Leno show, McCain gave the proper half-hearted defense of his conservative running mate, Sarah Palin.  In short, his response to the attacks from anonymous advisors in his campaign was simply “these things happen“.  I’m sure he despises his ordinary conservative running mate as much as he despises the rest of them, but there is 2010 to consider.  If he inspires any more mavericks, he’s going to be unemployed.

So, it’s back to tricking the ordinary conservatives while satisfying his unquenchable obsession with poking his fingers into conservative eyes.  You ordinary conservatives should be glad he even did this much.  He’s probably the reason those criticisms occurred in the first place.
