John McCain and his "record"

Ben Smith argues that:

McCain needs to find a way to compete -- which he should be able to do, based on his record -- for Hispanic voters.

This is his record. That's right, he would no longer support that "Amnesty" bill he co-sponsored in 2006. After all, he had to get elected by his race-baiting, immigrant-hating base somehow.

Conservatives attack!

I love it when the Conservatives attack McCain for his flip-flops, if only because they will generate media coverage:

via First Read, here is the Club for Growth:

We listened with concern yesterday to your interview with George Stephanopoulos on Social Security," the club's president Pat Toomey writes in a letter to McCain. "When asked if you would be open to raising the payroll tax, you refused to rule out a tax increase, saying 'There is nothing that’s off the table.' This statement was particularly shocking because you have been adamant in your opposition to raising taxes under any circumstances.

I wish that the MSM had actually covered this earlier, because McCain has often attacked Barack Obama on this very issue.
