Now McCain Just Needs a Consistent Prolifer at the Top of the Ticket

McCain is nothing if not shrewd. After floating trial balloons for running mates such as Mitt Romney and Joe Liberman (!), candidates sure to alienate at least part of the party base, he comes up with a religious conservative with truly impeccable prolife credentials in the form of son Trig Palin.

In addition, he let the prolifers have their way on their plank in the platform, which is the strongest in the history of the party. The question now is, how do prolifers keep McCain's feet to the fire so that he will change his position from support of federal funding of unethical stem-cell research to opposition to it. Indeed, the need is for a ban on all human cloning
