Lol- so McCain has a 'change of heart', and Obama's is politically expeditious, right? Just a WAG here......

McCain's playing of the (by now, very tired) Terrorist Card is using fear to get votes. Obama's merely trying to buy them.

(Actually, given the state of the market I think most people are glad it hasn't been privatized at this point in time).

Not what I'm saying at all. I believe a few posts ago I wrote "McCain flips more than Kerrey did", or some such thing.

I'm with Alex on how one votes while in office related to personal opinion vs. what the constituency wants. We are a representative republic, after all. What bugs me is being on the campaign trail saying X to group A in city 1 and -X to group B in city 2.

This point is exactly why I disagree with sleepyjeff. More public eye means more flip flopping.

That's a good point....but it brings to mind another. Congresspersons in the house only have to please a small area of their home state, usually either rural or urban, rarely both; Senators must please an entire state which will most certainly comprise both rural and urban....this will naturally lead to more flip-flopping.

I just read a Rowland Martin op/ed piece on CNN about it. People are trying to paint Obama and his wife as unpatriotic. It's silly.
