Noun. Verb. Maverick.
Doesn't the "maverick" label lose a bit of steam when you have to constantly say that you are one?

I thought we were the ones that were supposed to have the "smug" candidates. So far, I've seen more humility from Obama and Biden, and nothing but arrogance from McCain and Palin.

4. The "maverick" label means nothing.
ESPECIALLY if you have to remind everyone you're a maverick.
