How can McCain run on a small government platform and be in favor of a 700 billion bailout?
McCain is not running on a small government platform. If he was, he would not be proposing $300 million cash prizes for an improved automobile battery - something the industry is already working on. He would drop the environmentalism. There is no authority in the Constitution that grants the Federal Government the right to combat climate change. Also, he would support private property rights. And he would support civil liberties, since the government expands as it takes our liberties away.
His excuse might be that he is a "maverick." Maybe he thinks the bailout is the only option to save the economy. But if his rival for the presidency, along with the current president, both support the bailout, I fail to see how also supporting and voting for the bailout qualifies as being a "maverick."

How Do McCain and Obama feel about fixing the Economy?
They both claim to want to fix the economy, but neither have a good plan to do it. They both voted for the bailout, or B.O.M.B.
