I used to really like McCain. He seemed extremely moderate, for a Republican. I'd even have considered voting for him at one time.
But the closer he's gotten to the presidency, the more he's pandered to the extreme right of the party--his military posture has gotten more hostile, his positions on torture, abortion, civil rights.... basically everything I disagree with conservatives about, he's triangulated his way right into. So now not only do I disagree with his positions, I don't like him for his slimy votemongering.
