...three leading candidates, John McCain almost seems comfortable in his apostasy. His attempt to run bland in 2008, an echo of the 2000 edition of George W. Bush, cratered ignominiously. It was, in part, attributable to McCain's executive ineptitude; when it came to spending, his consultants were as prudent as the pork-peddling legislators he likes to deride.
