McCain,

I traveled through South Carolina with Mark Sanford in 2000 when I covered the McCain campaign. He struck me then, as he strikes me now, as one of the most impressive people I've met in politics. I have no idea if he could win the nomination, but I think he'd be a terrific president.

I'm Christian. I've made mistakes. I believe fervently in second chances.

I am really only interested in new information, not freelance opinion. I don't really care what you think off the top of your head.

Some white people are privileged, some aren't. Some black people are, some aren't. It's strikes me as, by definition, a racist attack in that it's making a generalization - a negative one - based on skin color.

The one thing I'm convinced George W. Bush is good at is bipartisanship. It's clearly something he enjoys personally.
