John McCain on Political Morality



Hat tip to John Brodigan for linking to a Tim Russert interview with John McCain. I was particularly intrigued by the way McCain values "doing what is right":
SEN. McCAIN: I'm sure that a number of ... things that I've done would hurt me with certain constituencies. And my opposition to ethanol has, obviously, hurt me. But you know what I've found out? That every time I've done something for what may have been influenced by political reasons, I've regretted it. Every time that I've done something that I think is right, it's turned out OK in the end. I've got to do what I think is right. And if it offends a certain political constituency, I regret it, but there's really nothing I can do about it
