A comment in the NY Times on McCain in Oregon

[lsanderson]

To be straight up from the beginning, I am a registered Republican so I do not much care who prefers Senator Clinton or Senator Obama. Not my fight. Senator Obama may move a step forward toward the Democratic nomination with a victory here but all that does is clarifies who plays the final round.

But Senator McCain’s speech here was the old “lipstick on a pig” routine and the reason why an aging Republican cannot vote for him. First, McCain’s voting record on important environmental issues is abominable and no matter how much Timothy Egan might forecast other wanderings from the official Republican line, the harsh reality of Senator McCain is when it really counts he scampers back to the bankrupt idiocy of the current administration. He did so on torture, he is doing so now on taxes, and he physically embraced the man who soiled the honor of McCain’s family in the 2000 Republican primary. So McCain is not a maverick, McCain is a capitulator, and in the end he will run away from environmental commitments when the party calls. More
