McCain sees the right
He made his big speech to the CPAC crowd this afternoon, and apparently got a few jeers but mainly cheers. He vowed to "win" the Iraq war, let the "free market" take care of the health care crisis and also noted: "Whomever the Democrats nominate, they would govern this country in a way that will, in my opinion, take this country backward to the days when government felt empowered to take from us our freedom to decide for ourselves the course and quality of our lives; to substitute the muddled judgment of large and expanding federal bureaucracies for the common sense and values of the American people; to the timidity and wishful thinking of a time when we averted our eyes from terrible threats to our security that were so plainly gathering strength abroad."
