I used to be a McCain fan

I remember having a brief political discussion with my doctor many months back. He said he liked McCain. I said I did too. I remembered McCain from 2000, and was very impressed by the straight talk, no bullshit, high moral standard stuff. I said I was actually happy because I thought , Democrat or Republican, we would get a good President this time.

I don't feel that way any more. I have been disappointed, often shocked and lately disgusted by the way McCain has run his campaign. I am not the first one to say it seems like an entirely different John McCain.

I just read this article by Andrew Sullivan (who was also once a McCain fan), and I have to say, I couldn't agree with him more.
