| Again, as far as it goes, I dont mind a progressive voting with these folks routinely. Its what I expect; its voting his conscience, and what they do. What I do mind is insulting his constituencys intelligence by posing as some kind of moderate come election time. I only wonder whether his assumption that we are a bunch of rube idiots is more the result of the elite education, or a career in politics. Either way, it isnt very Wisconsin like. |

| Lindsey Graham was sitting in a sedan early one morning and contentedly discussing the various fellow S.C. conservatives who dislike him Tea Partiers, Constitutionalists, immigration hardliners when Van Cato, his Upstate regional director, lifted a hand from the steering wheel and said: Thats the leader of them right there. Theres his sign. Hes running for Greenville County Council. Harry Kibler, Graham, South Carolinas senior U.S. senator, murmured as he read the campaign poster. Hes the one that has that prop of your legs sticking out of a toilet in the back of his truck, Cato added helpfully. Graham... |

| Senator John McCain's record as a staunch conservative came under fire during his Yuma town hall meeting Friday evening at Booth Machinery, prompting the senator to fire back in his own defense with a level of fiery passion reminiscent of his younger days. It seems to me that every time you run for election you tack very much to the right Steve Replogle, a member of the Colorado River Tea Party, told McCain during the town hall. I have personal questions in regards to your positions. You have at times advocated cap and trade amnesty, and the McCain-Feingold Bill made... |

| Former Massachusetts governor and 2008 presidential candidate Mitt Romney has announced that he will campaign for Senator John McCain (R - Ariz.) next week. According to McCain's campaign website, Romney will join the senator in Mesa, Arizona for a town hall meeting on Friday, June 4th. McCain, a four-term senator, is leading former Scottsdale Congressman J.D. Hayworth in a close race in the Republican primary in Arizona. The primary will be held in August. The announcement may come as a surprise, as during the 2008 presidential race Romney and McCain, both seeking the Republican nomination, appeared to be bitter rivals. |

| TUCSON, AZ (KGUN - TV) - Arizona Senator John McCain now says soldiers sent to the border should be armed. This revelation comes one day after Senate democrats shot down McCain's border plan to send 6,000 soldiers to the border. At a town hall meeting in Tucson, McCain first told 60 of his supporters in attendance that President Obama's plan to send 1,200 soldiers would not work because the soldiers would only be assigned to "desk jobs." (snip) Nunez asked: "What do you say to the those who accuse you of throwing out numbers, sending 6,000 troops to the border,... |

The three undocumented students face deportation after a sit in demonstration inside McCain's Tucson office. The senator later met with the students to hear their side of the story. "Their situation is one that they're in jeopardy. They... |
AZ-Sen. 2010: McCain, The Disappearing Maverick (Michelle Malkin)

| I need a Dramamine to cover Sen. John McCain's reelection bid. With his desperate lurch to the right, he's inducing more motion sickness than a Disneyland teacup. McCain's campaign represents the same self-serving political cynicism that American voters have grown tired of stomaching from the current White House. We need choices, not carbon copies. After decades of embracing the liberal-media moniker "maverick," for his frequent derision of the conservative wing of the Republican party, McCain has now abandoned the label. He told Newsweek magazine earlier this month: "I never considered myself a maverick." But countless YouTube videos show McCain and... |
