Some people actually believe that McCain is some kind of “Moderate Maverick” who takes on his own party and fights for what he believes. Well, anyone who looks closely at McCain’s actual voting record can tell you this is a bunch of hooey. For example, take a look at the Christian Coalition’s 2004 Congressional Scorecard. They grade Senators based on their votes on six issues. McCain voted with the Christian Coalition on five of the six votes.

The reality is, McCain is no more a maverick than Bill Frist, Rick Santorum, or Karl Rove. McCain’s made his choice: he has sided with those who claim that God gave Ariel Sharon a stroke.
