    • Abstract:
      The article discusses the behavior of U.S. Senator John McCain and the cause for his shifting positions on issues such as climate-change legislation, the U.S. military policy "Don't ask, Don't tell," and immigration reform. The author examines why McCain has taken a more moderate approach to governing in 2010, which goes against his reputation as a maverick, and how the choice of former Alaskan governor Sarah Palin as his 2008 U.S. presidential running mate, changed him politically.
