Another, small, reason not to vote for McCain
While Senator McCain is busy convincing GOP voters that he is true conservative, a term that need clarification to begin with, I stumble upon a news report that demonstrates McCain’s conservative credentials. Apparently Senator McCain, in his roll of senior good doer, was successful in forming a new federal agency - this time to regulate the sport of Boxing. Additional government agencies, regulations and barriers are typical McCain approach for solving issues passing his desk.
The move is part of a campaign to protect youngsters coming into the sport, the actions of promoters and the independence of judges. Among a range of schemes to be introduced will be a new licensing system applying to boxers, managers, promoters and sanctioning bodies.
The new agency – the US Boxing Administration – will also regulate the major TV networks when they act as fight promoters.
The bill was the brainchild of Senator John McCain, a long time supporter of reform in the sport.
No wonder Goldwater didn’t like him…
