I think it only looks that way because the Democrats stupidly let McCain be their leader on this issue. Since he is running for president, it was a foregone conclusion that, at the end of the day, he would find some way to cut a deal with Bush. When that happened, the Democrats were hung out to dry. They cannot now turn against McCain without making themselves look like idiots for having invested so much in his earlier opposition to the legislation. In short, it was Democratic stupidity, nit Republican brillians that led to this result.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
