He lost the primary to an anti-war candidate, won the general by switching parties and claiming 70% of the Republican vote.
Not surprising considering the nations stance on involvement in the Middle East at the time. It was the most hot button issue, and it cost him the primary. That is politics.
He struck a deal to keep his positions of leadership and ended up voting democratic a majority of the time. He got beat and realized he had better pony up, and he did.
He endorsed McCain in the 08 election. Obama, after winning, helped him retain his position.

Anybody who announces their candidacy from liberty university is automatically removed from my list.
Then he added insult to injury by telling people to vote according to their values. But I thought conservatives were all about liberty?
