<p>This doesn’t exonerate McCain from his marriage to Phil Gramm. My point is that we shouldn’t play guilt-by-association, because if we do, we might as well hate on George Washington for knowing and befriending slave owners, not to mention being one himself.</p>

<p>Really? Obama is more liberal than Russ Feingold or Bernie Sanders (who is a socialist)?</p>
<p>Those liberal rankings are not accurate because in an election year, presidential candidates tend to miss all but the most contested senate votes.

Thus, his fallacious “most liberal” ranking.</p>
