I'm not a fan of McCain at all, but he's got far less bagagge than the other two and having been a POW will get a lot of vets to vote for him regardless of his political stylings. Furthermore he's a moderate, I support this case with
McCain Finegold and
Mccain Kennedy. So reaching accross the isle is nothing new for the Arizona senator. Moreover Hilary is dragging the Dem's through the mud at this point and the sooner she's willing to pass the buck the better Obama's chances of winning are.
