One Step Forward, Two Steps Back

Every time I learn something about John McCain that makes me more predisposed toward him, I learn something else that makes me angry.

I recognize that he wants to compete in California, and maybe this is a good way to do it. But it's terrible policy, and it's certainly not something you do if you want to perform well in the Republican primary.

Update: Does this make 3 steps back, or 4?

Update II: or maybe 5 or 6 steps back...
