Rush Limbaugh just pointed out on his show that while John McCain wants conservatives focused on his judge talk today, this is what he had to say on Cinco de Mayo about immigration:

“It saddens me to see these conflicting approaches toward the issue of illegal immigration because we would not have this problem if the federal government had carried out its responsibilities,” he said.

As Rush reminds an audience that probably doesn’t need the reminder — the issue had conservatives fired up a year ago — John McCain has been part of the problem of the federal government not carrying out its responsibilities. McCain-Bush-Kennedy didn’t and wasn’t going to help matters.

John McCain has this habit of reminding conservatives why they’ve not been partial to him.
