Thanks drew! I respect the fact that you always stand up for what you believe. Sorry for poking you to just get a rise. The problem with endorsements, is that they're like I.O.U.s. There really isn't much about the political process that is idealistic. Candidates run for office because they want a payoff. Could be graft, prestige, oral sex with White House interns, whatever; and campaign contributions and votes work the same way.

So, accepting an endorsement is exactly like any other debt. You pay it, or pay the price for defaulting. That's why McCain keeps moving right. It isn't necessarily representative of his personal views, it's just what he had to do to get party backing. And the bills will come due. Lie down with dogs, wake up with fleas.
