If you turn right McCain or someone else will say you should have turned left. If you turn left he will say “No, no you should have stood pat”. If you stand pat he will say "No you should have turned left or right. When you’re not in charge you can say anything because you’re not responsible if things go wrong.
I could be wrong, but I think the last non-polarizing administration we had here in the U.S. would have been Gerald Ford… His scandal was the pardoning of Nixon so everyone would get over Watergate and the country could heal from that fiasco.
