NYTimes writer Maureen Dowd says that John McCain, once a “constructive independent, is now such a predictable obstructionist that he’s in the just-say-no vanguard with the same conservatives who used to despise him.”

It has apparently escaped our MSM colleagues like Ms. Dowd that there is nothing, absolutely nothing, to be positive about in this Congress. When the only “compromise” in any bill is the competition for how much pork to add, even Mr. McCain just has to say no.
