Sounds like some very careful positioning to make him a popular man in the event of him switching over to a 3rd party, or to keep his standing in the Republicans if it doesn’t happen.
While I’m not a great fan of him either, I’d prefer him heading/leading/joining a 3rd Party than some of the other, worse Xenophobic Republicans trying to get the Presidential nomination right now.
Had McCain not gone off the deepend in 2008 with his scatterbrainedness and his selfish espousal of all things right-winged to get the 2008 GOP nod, and his pathetic VP pick of Palin and his continued pander to the right for senate re-election he might have been a good candidate for AE.
Can’t take back history.
