McCain votes just like Clinton!
Recently I got to listen to a group of Huckabee supporters comment on the current candidates for President. One person said that McCain has an 86% approval rating by some politically conservative group but in the past two years he had the same rating as Clinton. Therefore, McCain is a liberal.
At the time I thought to myself that probably says more about Clinton’s record than McCain’s (I don’t mean that in a negative way) but I didn’t bother to offer my opinion. But I was curious so I went to Project Vote Smart to look up the candidate’s various ratings.

And these people were accusing “others” of not taking the time to look at the candidates’ records.
