AZ, I believe that you are right on this. We have to focus on congressional members to have the greatest impact.

I think Joe is still one of those who votes the lesser of two evils but that he's keeping in mind the fact that the presidency offers little in the way of actual power and it will take a well liked individual to have any real influence on Congress. With McCain, that isn't the case.

He may also be looking at it from the possibility that, if Dems dominate the Congress, they will fully back a Dem president, no matter what, which would be disasterous so maybe it's best to try and get a Republican in there.
