That is exactly why I've lost a lot of faith in McCain over this pick.
McCain has always been a conservative who's not pushed the social button very hard. This pick is clearly a signal that the base was not excited by him, so they made a strategic decision to make this election about the "culture wars" rather than the real issues, because they were afraid they couldn't win.
Ultimately this may come back to haunt.
