Straight Talk

It’s nice to see McCain lying about FISA at his CPAC speech.

There are a lot of reasons you can come up with for why John McCain may not be a strong general election candidate. But this is the flipside. Since he has a reputation for straight-talk, he’s been granted by the press an unrestricted licenses to lie. It’s hard to beat someone with one of those.
