Raising McCain

McCain Runneth Over
The McCain-as-a-Democrat boomlet continues. Mickey Kaus thinks he will run for president but that it may make more sense for him to run as an independent. John Ellis (in items titled "McCainiac" and "McCain for President") agrees, arguing that McCain will run "as the 'not crazy' Ross Perot." Glenn Reynolds is skeptical. MSNBC's Tom Curry says McCain-as-a-Democrat is loony because he's too conservative to win in a Democratic primary. But Josh Marshall counters that "the reason McCain would choose to run as a Democrat rather than an Independent would simply be that he is interested in winning."
