Remember when Saxby Chambliss ran for Senate from Georgia and ran an ad questioning the patriotism of Max Cleland, a man who lost both his legs and an arm in Vietnam?

Remember when John McCain said that ad was "worse than disgraceful?"

Well, seems a guy who worked on that Chambliss campaign is now ... wait for it ... McCain's national political director!

The McCain that called Falwell and Robertson "agents of intolerance" is unfortunately dead and buried.
 
Bottom line, a guy that can successfully smear a quadriplegic war hero is someone you want on your team when you need to play rough with a woman or a minority.

Hillary supporters will tell you that she's got the experience to withstand those attacks while Barack doesn't.
I tell those Hillary supporters they're nuts for making an issue out of that.
 
He's also taking advice from Rove, the guy behind the dust-up over his daughter back in 2000.

Politics... bedfellows... assholes.

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
 
Wasn't Hillary skewed for doing whatever it takes to win?
 
Maybe this is just McCain's way of reaching out to the conservatives by showing he's conservative enough to discredit the service of a veteran if they don't think like they do.

The thing is, I don't think McCain can throw anything at Obama that can't be turned back around on him. And he's already gotten this far without having to compromise himself, I really doubt he'll do anything he doesn't want to do.
