Gee, I thought he wrote it for the money.
I wonder if McCain has read the book. Matt should send him an autographed copy.
I can't WTFV, but I figure he did it for the lulz.
Who couldn't see the decline of the MSM and with it all those high paying cushy jobs on "editorial boards". Career move.
Video no longer available.
We'll never know why he really wrote it.....
Wait.
Matt Welch wrote a book . . . a book on McCain? And it's called "The Myth of a Maverick?"
Why he could use the H&R forum to promote this book, I suppose.
