John McCain: Proof that Republicans are unprincipled.

The New York Times had a front-page story today about John Mccain's assemblage of helpers for his 2008 presidential campaign. They include Republicans who helped him with his 2000 campaign, Republicans who are anit-neocon, and hardcore neocons.

McCain's apparent belief that all these people will work together demonstrates his lack of concern for what his right - he wants to win, and principles can go crawl in a hole. The Times's lack of surprise at the combination - the obvious possibility for conflict was not mentioned in the article - demonstrates how little most Americans care.
