FORMER leading GOP candidate

McCain stepped in it, on Imus:

"He [Michael Graham] also mentioned my abridgement of First Amendment rights, i.e. talking about campaign finance reform....I know that money corrupts....I would rather have a clean government than one where quote First Amendment rights are being respected, that has become corrupt. If I had my choice, I'd rather have the clean government."

Of course, his handlers will spin this out of the universe. And really, it's a pretty unexceptional statement, given that Son of Cain's previous actions have spoken much more loudly. But such candor is refreshing in DC.

Now, would you vote for somebody so stupid as to think you can have "clean government" (an oxymoron if I ever heard one) without a vigorous 1st Amendment?
