I completely agree that McCain would put America first and I greatly admire his service record. I also believe he would have been a fiscal conservative. He has been consistent in his distaste for earmarks and other negative aspects of domestic discretionary spending. He also would be very strong on national defense and keeping American's safe.

What I have never liked about him is his "Maverick" status with the government media has always been when he has thrown conservatives under the bus ala the Gang of 14 deal on judicial appointments. I also think he would be more open to tax increases despite what he said in the campaign and he views Washington as the solution when it is usually the problem. I would have preferred Romney as the GOP nominee but given all the choices McCain would probably have been my second choice.
