I don't know how he did it and kept getting elected in Arizona, but that is quiet an accomplishment for McCain. It also says that he doesn't just talk the talk......

"While they both say they want a moratorium, both have a healthy load of earmarks going this year - nearly $300 million worth for Clinton and nearly $100 million for Obama.

Sen. John McCain, the Republican candidate for president, simply doesn't do earmarks."

This fascinates me, because McCain is not just the candidate with the least amount of pork spending. He has zero pork spending.
