John McCain, the conservative
Redstate

I admit it. I supported Sen. McCain in 2000 and despite repeatedly doing things that bug me, I still like him. He is obviously hoping to be President in 2008 and he stands a good chance of creating a general election landslide, if he makes it through the primary.

So along comes The Economist [$] to remind me why I liked him so much four years ago. The subtitle is: The senior senator for Arizona is not what Democrats hope he is.

In fact, Senator McCain is no Lincoln Chafee, no Arlen Specter, no Rudy Guiliani even. He is a conservative. Even on the issues that earn him his title of "maverick," he bucks the leadership for conservative reasons.
