While conservatives have many legitimate disagreements about McCain, I think one thing most of us can agree on is that when it comes to pork spending, McCain – though not perfect – truly is a “maverick” even within his own party which, in spite of its rhetoric decrying the practice of budget-busting earmarks, sees many in the House and Senate happily partaking in the process. Of this, Robert Novak writes:
The NYPost writes today about the removal of what’s been called the 9/11 “Survivors’ Stairway” from Ground Zero, which took place yesterday:
The debate over what to do about the Florida and Michigan delegates continued to rage on over the weekend with the the talking head shows weighing in with their .02. I think Hillary is actually gaining some momentum with her case for either seating the delegates as they stand now from the original primary votes, or holding a new vote to determine how many delegates each candidate will get. Obama is reluctant, I think, because he stands ahead at this point in the delegate count, and perhaps feels that he wouldn’t win in FL and MI.
