If you ever wanted a sign the John McCain was a “movement conservative” in disguise, just take a look at what the right wing pundits are saying about his stunning 4th place loss in Iowa.
Fox News’ Greta van Susteren: “I can’t think of anyone happier tonight than Sen. John McCain.”
Politico’s Mike Allen: “Tonight is a fantastic night for John McCain. … He’s one of the biggest winners of the night.”
Newsweek’s Jon Meacham: “To me, the great story about Sen. McCain is, when in doubt, give principle a try.”
Fox News’ Carl Cameron: “Inside Washington, he’s been a real maverick outsider.”
Say what? Huckabee hits a home run with the fundamentalists in Iowa and the story is McCain? Boy this smacks of “talking points”. Why do I get the feeling these guys are getting faxes with the GOP official spin ? I have long believed that the Neocons want McCain in the White House and I really think he made a deal with them. Remember when he was a maverick? Now he totes the party line. What happened? Backroom deal is my guess.
The big news from Iowa was Obama. Record turn out and a sound thrashing of both Edwards and Clinton. Now that’s a story!
