Jumping Ship

John Hawkins of Right Wing News, never a McCainiac, wrote a Townhall column last February entitled, "Why You're Going to Vote for John McCain in November and Like It."

Well, maybe you still are, but he sure isn't. It looks like it's mostly over fibs Hawkins believes McCain has been telling about immigration reform, ironically one of the few things I agree with the Arizona senator on in principle, if not exactly detail. (That is, to be clear, I support immigration reform, not fibs.) I expect we'll see more of this sort of thing until the real partisan (long?) war breaks out in a few weeks.

John McCain, NATO, Immigration
