    Remember a month ago when McCain called Obama 'disengenious' and accused him of using the ethics reform issue for "self-interested partisan posturing."?

    The irony in that accusation was ball-shaking to say the least.

    McCain's appearance on 'The Daily Show' only showed him being as earnest and sincere as he will be when he is interviewed by Brit Hume or another uber-conservative. Will the real McCain please stand up? How does his display of 'sincerety' on the Daily Show jive with his display of crazy-base loving?

    Yeah, that's cool he can come on 'The Daily Show' and get admonished by Jon Stewart. You gotta appreciate that level of self-deprecation. But that isn't the issue, is it? That is a distraction for the real problem with John McCain.

    I am deeply confused by your admiration for this man. On one hand, you declare he shows principles and convictions few democrats are willing to show. And on the other hand, the disingenuity he displays should cancel that belief out.

    The irony in your support for McCain is ball-shaking to say the least.
