John McCain is against drilling in ANWR. Yet his party, its platform and his vice president support it.

John McCain is against a constitutional ban on gay marriage. Yet his party, its platform and his vice president support it.

John McCain supports allowing abortion exceptions for rape and incest. Yet his party, its platform and his vice president support NO EXCEPTIONS AT ALL.


I'm curious: If John McCain can't change his own party when he is its leader and has to pick a candidate to satisfy his base; how in the hell is he going to change Washington?
