Eric Alterman is
touting John McCain for vice president.... on the Democratic ticket. This is, of course, just plain silly. McCain is not a Democrat, no matter how much people like to fantasize that he is. He got a 20 rating in 2002 from the liberal Americans for Democratic Action; Zell Miller, whom the lefties loathe, received a 30. He's not even the most liberal Republican; Lincoln Chaffee got a 45 in that year.
