Anyone else remember this time in the 2000 primary when all the GOP candidates were naming TR as their favorite past president? Or was it just McCain and L. Dole?

I can't see him taking that title away from Reagan, didn't McCain claim to be a foot soldier in the Reagan Revolution?

No no, McCain's hero is TR as you can see.

In the same sentence that he declares himself a "conservative" he claims TR is his hero. A bit conflicting...

Hey I'm not sticking up for McCain just showing you what he said. Wink
