- skteoievtehr, on 06/19/2008, -2/+40Cafferty keeps it real.
- themightylex, on 06/19/2008, -3/+36Even when I disagree with Cafferty (Which is rarely), I still enjoy his cranky delivery. On this Jack is completely right and he's a much needed voice over at the right-leaning CNN.
- grlykool, on 06/19/2008, -0/+25The press is starting to notice that McCain has his summer flip/flops on.
- toddcat, on 06/19/2008, -3/+22It's sad that Cafferty is so worthy of credit on mainstream TV. That should be the rule, not the exception. Still, history will regard Cafferty well.
- Sogui, on 06/19/2008, -4/+18Wow thanks for that Huffington Post blog link for something you can easily find on CNN.

Whoever submitted this, just link us to CNN, I'm sick of this Huffington crap, now we're giving HuffingtonPost ad revenue for just grabbing a video and transcript straight from CNN. - inactive, on 06/19/2008, -1/+12good start. Next we need side by side video or audio to drive the point home to the average viewer
- lane.montgomery, on 06/19/2008, -1/+11Sure he can beat Kerry on flip-flopping, but how good is he at wind surfing?
- JonTheBold, on 06/19/2008, -1/+8I consider CNN to be right-leaning simply for the way in which they have tended to wear kid-gloves when interviewing the Republican elite. They don't take this same tone when interviewing most Dems, I've noticed, even after the Dems took the Congress/Senate.
Now, it may just be because the Repubs were/are in power, but the past several years have been a time when tough questions needed to be asked, and CNN (like many news outlets) chose to simply read out White House press releases without ever digging into the stories.
There have been notable exceptions, but those are few. I don't know how many times CNN has had a big government name on for an interview, and they've politely danced around the most obvious questions, or failed to follow up a question with the obvious response. It's frustrating to watch.
Plus, over on the other CNN channel, they've got Glenn Beck and Nancy Grace going for the gold in some sort of anti-intellectual Olympic challenge. - ArchieAndrews, on 06/19/2008, -1/+7Cafferty is the man: http://youtube.com/watch?v=JgiwkcZxj7c
- inactive, on 06/19/2008, -3/+8John McCain is John Kerry in republican form. Except worse.
- pprovo1, on 06/19/2008, -0/+5Yeah I don't know how right leaning they really are. Sometimes you see them rooting on Obama's side and then other days they are all for McCain...CNN are the real flip floppers haha.
- withears, on 06/19/2008, -2/+6It's about F-ING TIME!
McCain hasn't found a position that he's NOT willing to change positions on if it means he'll get more votes.
Gay marriage, abortion, immigration, off-shore drilling, tax cuts, habeas corpus - You name it, McCain has held MULTIPLE positions on it. - Sogui, on 06/19/2008, -1/+5Yea and then put it on Youtube with some music from 300, and make sure that guy is like "THIS IS MADNESS!" at the end. Then link it to all your buddies in World of Warcraft and you'll be golden.
/sarcasm - grlykool, on 06/19/2008, -0/+3McCain really has a horrible logo!
- greatgran1, on 06/19/2008, -1/+4Jack you just present the facts but it just doesn't matter.The flip-flopper relies on his age and his logo "The straight talk express",to sustain everything that he does in the campaign.I don't think MSM will be able to overlook too much more.
- mrgreg, on 06/19/2008, -1/+4Cafferty says he's "right" on guns...Ha. I tend to think that's a Republican stereotype forced upon him, because McCain is surely not the best choice for 2nd Amendment advocates this election season by a long shot.
More info on his record since 2000:

http://gunowners.org/mccaintb.htm - corr, on 06/19/2008, -1/+4Hey huffington post on digg and against McCain, that's cool and original.
- Hetman, on 06/19/2008, -1/+4I agree. The huffington post promised that there were aliens and they lied to me. They are asses.
- Sairynn, on 06/19/2008, -0/+3I prefer terrorist fist jabs.
- thehawk23, on 06/19/2008, -0/+3I see what you did there.
- Sairynn, on 06/19/2008, -0/+3Dugg for the last part.
- didiman, on 06/19/2008, -10/+12right-leaning CNN? you need to lay off the kool-aid and get fresh air
- FLUX, on 06/19/2008, -0/+2your abusive language and racial slurs only show your ignorance
- FLUX, on 06/19/2008, -10/+12huffington post = auto digg down nothing from her site is factual or useful
huffington post =weekly world news of liberalism - Hetman, on 06/19/2008, -2/+4 "On immigration, campaign finance reform, and global warming, McCain is to the left." So basically anyone we elect is going to tax more, increase the size of the government and not enoforce immigration laws? Anyways if the democrats cannot beat McCain in an election they just need to disband because Obama should win this election easily.
- TheLastProphet, on 06/19/2008, -2/+4Jack Kicks Ass!
- TheLastProphet, on 06/19/2008, -0/+2how will writing in RP help?
He still has some tricks up his sleeve, but otherwise, vote Libertarian... at least the votes are counted. Write ins aren't even counted. - SauceSpot, on 06/19/2008, -0/+2was thinking about writing in ron paul here in arizona but unfortunately he would need to fill out a write-in form for for the votes to count. but i will not be voting for any candidate for democratic or repubican party. will be looking at third party candidates to vote for. hoping ron paul will run as an independant
- Makaveli5022, on 06/19/2008, -1/+3You mean CNN tries to keep a balanced approach at news? How unreasonable?!
- MOJIRA, on 06/19/2008, -0/+2He needs his own block on the air. I'm tired of Wolf ***** and Anderson Pooper.
- francis7, on 06/19/2008, -0/+2Once in a while they throw in an actual news-reporting item sprinkled with a semblance of objectivity and the the reality-slash-truth-starved crowd mob loves "them" for it...
but don't mind me i'm a cynical. - BufordT, on 06/19/2008, -2/+4It's about time someone railed on John McCain's Co. He has one of the worst Co's I have ever seen. He doesn't even come close to Ron Paul, or even Obama's Co. Next time try to edit your title to make it fit into the allotted space instead of a frantic copy/paste to be the first to get the article posted.
- thehawk23, on 06/19/2008, -0/+2Is it bad if I thought what Sogui described was awesome?
- Cyrus042, on 06/19/2008, -1/+3Cafferty is probably one of the worst informed commentators on CNN when it comes to politics. He frequently misunderstands both Obama's and McCain's issues across the board. He's truly just a cranky man.
- pprovo1, on 06/19/2008, -0/+1WTF does this have to do with ANYTHING Jack Cafferty has said???
- rebotfc, on 06/19/2008, -0/+1wrong, just wrong! =]
- test5477, on 06/19/2008, -4/+5I agree with Jack C. and with Skywise above. McCain is going back on about everything and Obama has flipflopped on public financing.
So sad, hoped Obama would stay true but with this and him now involving lobbyists in his campaign he's looking pretty average too. - herbertstrasse, on 06/20/2008, -0/+1"Barack Obama is abandoning public financing for his presidential campaign, reversing his earlier stance in bold certainty he can raise millions more on his own as the first major-party candidate to bypass the tax-checkoff system that was hurried into place after the Watergate scandal."
First time since Watergate? Seems like a change to me. - chrissku, on 06/19/2008, -2/+3I would never want a President that couldn't give me a high 5.
- Actionmac1, on 06/19/2008, -0/+1lol... nice.
- teethandeyes, on 06/19/2008, -4/+5Cafferty is the man.
We need more MSM journalists like Jack and Olbermann, you know, journalists with a spine and a nutsack. - JettaMan, on 06/19/2008, -0/+1Did he rail or did he slam?
- xceptionaly, on 06/19/2008, -2/+3That's right. And you definitely wouldn't try and rob the house of or attack a man who obviously owns a gun, either. 2nd amendment all the way, baby!
- queotic, on 06/19/2008, -0/+1He stole it from Obama, so it can't be half bad ;-)
- inactive, on 06/19/2008, -0/+1Agreed, Sairynn. If you combined the IQs of Beck and Grace you would still be in double digits.
- muckemuck, on 06/19/2008, -2/+2Cafferty is still just propping up the two party duopoly. Until he starts mentioning third party candidates he'll continue to just be a shill for the Republicrats. He's outraged about the politicians in office but he's just helping to get more of the same elected.
- thatsmyaibo, on 06/19/2008, -2/+2HuffPost = front page on Digg. I'm just still trying to understand why people don't just go to HuffPost.com instead of submitting everything on Digg.
- Duositex, on 06/19/2008, -2/+1I'm scared to digg you down because you obviously own a gun.
- mrgreg, on 06/19/2008, -2/+1Heh...xceptionaly beat me to it, but I'll do it too.
What if I put "This is a Gun-Free Post"? Would you dig me down knowing I wouldn't retaliate? ;) - Hetman, on 06/19/2008, -3/+1I agree. I personally like cracked.com but I just go straight to the site a rarely if ever digg one of there articles or comment on them.
