Here's one for the week leading up to July 4th. Long-time readers will recall that I'm an advocate of particularly celebrating politics and politicians on the 4th; I also have a new column at Salon this week on the importance of elections (warning, conservatives: you won't like my examples, but the piece should work with examples of your own).
At any rate, this gets to the question: what politician are you proudest to have supported?

John McCain. I still think he's the best presidential candidate the country has had since Eisenhower. Few have been as qualified for the office, but I think his political positions were the best match for the country: conservative but not in a way that adhered to Republican orthodoxy.
