John McCain has consistently undermined his undeserved "maverick" label in issue after issue over the past 6 months. Countless diaries have documented this on DailyKos. Even the MSM is starting to touch it - in their ever-so-pleasant 'balanced' approach.
BUT TODAY'S SHOCKER ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING IS BEYOND THE PALE.
In a speech that panders to nearly every oil and gas donor in the Republican party, and flip-flops on one environmental position after another(including turning the coast of Florida over to ExxonMobil), McCain completely throws his global warming policy overboard with his own words in making this comparison to Barack Obama:
He doesn’t support more traditional use of coal, either.
By discharging any constraints on the building of new coal-fired power plants (which is the NUMBER ONE most important thing we can do to control global warming pollution), and complimenting that with his opposition to fuel economy standards on vehicles, McCain effectively has no global warming policy.
McCain is not a maverick.
McCain does not support control of global warming pollution.
MCCAIN'S INCOHERENCE ON MATTERS OF IMPORTANCE SHOULD WORRY EVERY VOTER.
