1) It could be something that McCain would want to do.
2) It would demonstrate magnanimity - extending an olive branch across the aisle.
3) It would open up a seat in a red state that would either get filled by a Democrat, or by an easily marginalized wingnut.
4) It would help capture some of the moderate Repub vote in 2010.

Conservative's relationship with the Republican party is going south because:


1) the party having an Affair with liberalism (John McCain)
2) the party is Addicted to deficits (George Bush), and
3) the party is Abusive (the Constitution).
