14. McCain plays the "good cop, bad cop" strategy of political mythology.
His intensions are just as partisan and vile as the bad cop. He is a moderate Trojan horse sent to implant the perception of moderate in the general populace. Perception trumps reality in politics, always remember the talking point is more piecing than the action.
