The "Inevitable" John McCain?
As this piece points out, John McCain has been working hard to present himself as the inevitable Republican nominee for President in '08. The piece concludes that he's been doing a good job.
Well, maybe among the press and inside the Beltway, but -- unfortunately for McCain -- others have a voice, too. Specifically, Republican primary voters.
And much of the base isn't too thrilled with McCain, for reasons laid out succinctly by Hugh Hewitt here.

McCain has been too self-serving and too quick to "jump ship" and oppose his party when the opportunity arose to get media attention.
McCain's only chance with me is his unwaivering support for the war. But his history makes me wonder if even that has not been a calculated risk on his part. Go agianst the media - this one time only! - because, on this issue, it is necessary if he is to win the Republican primary. Winning the Republican Primary is necessary in order to become President.
Also, I've seen nothing in his temperament to suggest he will aquit himself well when the media turns on him the frist time he tries to do anything considered remotely conservative. He seems to do well in front of the cameras when he's agreeing with the MSM. I simply have no confidence he will be able to handle the pressure of a hostile media.
And that is a requirement for any Republican President.
that's right chr, and the MSM also knows that whatever DemocRat runs will have a better chance at beating McCain than a true conservative candidate. It's the opposite of what the reporting will say.
Why were so many of the DemocRats that won last week using a conservative agenda when campaigning?
