McCain Blinked III

Andrew Sullivan has been one of McCain's biggest supporters, but his assessment 9/25/2006 is grim.

Money quote, as Andrew would say:

...it's clear he [McCain] has also acquiesced to giving complete legal impunity to the civilian architects of the torture policy within the Bush administration. Maybe that's the real deal here - I'll give you legal protection for past war-crimes if you give me the nomination in 2008.
