New revelations about McCain

Apparently, Senator John McCain was ready to quit the Republican party in 2001. In an MSNBC report today, McCain so was disgusted by the tactics used by the Bush campaign back in 2000, especially right before the South Carolina primary, that he seriously entertained the idea of leaving the party and becoming an independent, allowing the Democrats to take control of the Senate. Furthermore, McCain also seriously considered joining John Kerry back in 2004 as Kerry's running mate (kerry ended up selecting John Edwards). Now what Kerry and McCain have in common is a great question considering that McCain calls himself a "proven conservative" and a "soldier in the Reagan revolution". It would appear that when John McCain the politician does not get his way or loses a campaign or election he would rather "cut and run".
