Much like Lieberman pretended to be a real liberal when he was running for VP to appease the 'real liberals' I'm sure McCain will pretend to be more conservative.
The question is will they buy it or not. I'm going to guess secular conservatives will, religious conservatives, not so much.
Interestingly I think its the conservative pundits that will do more harm to McCain's campaign than anything the democrats can say.

Don't compromise your principles just because you think you can get an easier victory in a national election by doing so.
