GOP Sen. John McCain is positioning himself to be one of President Barack Obama’s strongest supporters, effectively giving Democrats the votes they need to override any GOP attempt to block the new administration’s legislative agenda.
Obama heaped warm praise on his GOP rival during a dinner held in McCain’s honor the day before the inauguration, calling him a hero.
Insiders duly noted McCain was granted a prime spot on the dais at the inauguration, sandwiched in a seat between White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel and Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

I have always said that John McCain was to far left of center to be president. This is why McCain could not get his base the conservatives together, well not until Palin came into the race that is. John McCain lost the election, not Palin. Sarah Palin you sure are looking good for 2012.
Pathetic, isn’t it?
And the only reason I voted for McCain was that he was better than Obama and whats his name, oh yes that Biden guy that is not allow to talk very often. Sarah Palin would have been a better president than both of them put together at least she had more experience than Barack!
We gotta change the nominating process so we don’t end up with a boob like McCain again. Maybe assign fewer delegates to states with open primaries.
McCain is not conservative. Don’t know if Sarah Palin will run for President in 2012. She does have more experience than Obama.
I always thought there was something funny about Mc Cain rising from the dead to take that nomination. This whole election cycle just didn’t look right.
John McCain, Republicrat.
