...state-vs.-blue-state issue. But it doesn't break neatly along Republican and Democrat lines. It is one of the few issues capable of uniting, on one side, Rush Limbaugh and Howard Stern, and on the other, New York Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton and Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum. If the FCC is strengthened, Limbaugh has argued, what happens when a future Democratic Administration decides that conservative talk radio is violence-inciting "hate speech"?

Asked about the rankings, McCain said "over 22 years, I've been far more on the conservative side" and blamed his ranking in part on his opposition to additional tax cuts that many in his party support but he thinks will...
