How did he get away with not visiting them for 8 years? Why hadn't they called him on it?

He better bring Picture ID as I am sure the Conservatives will not recognize him.

McCain may have chickened out of the one-on-one Meet the Press debate with Romney, that he originally proposed, and Mitt accepted. But I have to say that it takes real guts for McCain to show up at NCPAC....he'll be lucky to get out with his life. Conservatives all over the country are developing a feeling for McCain that borders on hatred.

McCain chickening out? Now that's funny.
Do these guys who bully over the airwaves actually think they can intimidate a man who spent five years in a North Vietnamese prison?
Of course, this is the same crew that thinks a guy who played the president in a movie could be the president.
If anyone has anything to fear in a face-to-face confrontation with John McCain it would be the manly men of Talk Radio who never served in the military.
My nephew completed two tours in Iraq, but he supports Obama...guess he's a traitor too.
It takes "guts" for McCain to show up at the NCPAC meeting? Gimme a break.
