This week, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) caved to the right wing and skipped a key vote on the economic stimulus plan, despite voicing prior support for the package. CNN’s Jack Cafferty excoriated McCain for placing his personal ambitions over the public’s well-being:
It was one of those moments that said quite a bit about somebody’s character. What did McCain do? Nothing. He ducked. Instead of representing the people in Arizona who elected him, he simply choice not to vote at all. John McCain, pilot of the Straight Talk Express, wimped out. […]
This makes it looks a lot like John McCain wants to be president but he can’t bring himself to do the job of senator. Just another politician choosing to do what’s best for him.

McCain can't find the time to do the job he was elected to do as Senator but he wants to be President. To publicly say he was to busy to vote on the emergency bill for rebate checks, while stating more then two weeks he wanted help for Americans. Maybe McCain has the Grampa Fred sickness of I forgot.
