Maverick, Indeed

I'm getting more and more fascinated by this republican candidate, John McCain. I don't agree with all of his politics, but I really like his style. He's moved from a very defensive campaign to quite a strategy. While Obama is calling him, 'out of touch,' he's reminding us just how unfamiliar Obama is with the American way of life, for the average person. McCain says, "Yeah, I'm a career politician with a rich wife!" Obama, on the other hand is living in his mansion, with his multi-million dollar income and he wants to come across like he's just a regular guy! Please, McCain wins that one hands down! We know politicians are not in touch with the real people.
The next deal with McCain is his openness to admit he's not the favored of the republicans, but he got the most votes and that's just the fact of life.
McCain is also taking some heat for having Joe Lieberman at every event. Joe Lieberman is a tough one to guess. I, personally, have watched him change parties, sides, and affiliations. Wouldn't it be a hoot for him to be a republican VP, just 8 years after he was VP on the democratic ticket? And what are the conservatives going to do if he is? This is where John McCain takes the cake! If he chooses a pro-choice candidate for VP or if he cooses an anti-war candidate for VP, what will his party do? Change party affiliation? Hardly! Stay home and let Obama win by default? I think not! John McCain can pretty much make any decision he wants regarding this campaign, his party has their back against the wall and he knows it. And truthfully, I find it just a bit entertaining.
Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find? a Proverb of Holy Scripture
