It is almost fitting that Senator Jesse Helms - longtime US Senator from North Carolina, onetime right-wing political commentator and a constant conservative voice on both domestic and foreign policy issues in American politics for the past half decade - passed away during an election year that may indeed see the demise of the conservative coalition that he was a key player in building.

Just remember, the stories of McCain's calling his wife the c-word and attacking Rick Renzi in 2006 first reported in my book, The Real McCain, they are damn lies as the McCainiacs have claimed (well, actually,

According to the Pew Research Center, when asked to describe their views of McCain in a word, the term "maverick" didn't even come up. Nor did "reformer" or "independent." Ruh-roh.

One would have to strain to be shocked that a racist ad is finding its way out of the bowels of conservativism in North Carolina.
