McCain is a great guy and I think the fact that he is a great guy has made its way through most media filters. However, I don't think many Dems are going to keep their support once they see how he is voted on stuff. But I could be wrong.
I don't like his stance on many issues, inclusing campaign finance, but I would vote for him. But I am not a Dem. Knowing what you know about his record you would still vote for him over most Dems?

I am aware of his stances on abortion and gun control. I don't worry about the former because he'll never actually be able to effect change and I don't care about the latter because the people on the right side of the gun control debate will never be able to effect change.
I didn't say that I woud vote for him over most Dems. I said I would favor him over any of the likely nominees. If the Dems actually nominate someone who has a reasonable plan and the credibility to convince me em'll actually try to implement it, I'd vote for the Dem.
But we both know that ain't gonna happen. Any more than McCain getting the nod ffom youse guyz.
