| #4 MCCAIN [paraphrased] > US withdrawal from Iraq will lead not only to local GENOCIDE and other chaos, as thousands or millions of innocent people are now made subject to the whims of victorious Terrorists, but will lead also to Terrorists following us back here to America. |

| #3 AT: IIRC, there was another critical vote in the not too distant past where Mr. Big Mouth did the same no show act. At least with a POS like Murtha, you know what he's about, McKerry you don't. |

| #2 McCain was "absent" for today's vote on the war. Shameful. I was listening to him yesterday on a conservative talk show and he was talking like Mr. Tough Guy and I thought he sounded great. But then I remembered that during his last campaigns he did the same thing, but once elected he cuddled up to the left and failed in all meaningful reform such as immigration, talking about how the war was mismanaged, campaign finance reform, etc. I hate to say it, but the fact that he missed this very important vote was the final straw for me. I have always, very much, wanted to believe in McCain. But today he proved he is little more than a phony, shameless opportunist. |

| #1 I haven't decided who I'm supporting in the primaries yet--my theoretical ideal isn't running (he never does) and I want to see what Thompson does--but there's things to like about McCain. For one thing, he gets the One Big Thing (the war) right. For another, he's not afraid to give the likes of Murtha what's coming to them. |
