Why McCain Is Wrong for the Right By Chuck Muth
For conservatives with long memories, John McCain is about the worst possible Republican presidential nominee--unless, of course, anyone still thinks Mike Huckabee actually has a shot at the brass ring, or you like seeing the GOP split asunder. And the reason why can perhaps best be summed up in two words: McCain-Feingold.
Sen. McCain’s campaign finance reform bill--which he pushed relentlessly, almost to the exclusion of everything else--was a frontal attack on the right of free speech. Not commercial or pornographic free speech, mind you. Political free speech. The kind of speech the founders clearly had in mind when they emphatically declared that Congress shall make no law abridging.
