McCain Express to Nowhere?
Pinon, Ariz.
I have two problems with Rick Perlstein's "All Aboard the McCain Express" [April 21]. First, there is no guarantee that the conservative era is over. It is entirely possible that John McCain will win in November. Second, George W. Bush has not been conservative in the least; he's been the head of a right-wing reactionary movement. McCain was perhaps conservative for a while, but he has abandoned his positions for the reactionary ones championed by Bush.
