Schneider: McCain playing to fiscal conservatives
SIMI VALLEY, California (CNN) -- McCain is clearly trying to establish his bona fides with conservatives by running hard on the government spending issue. That may be smart. Conservatives are very upset over the "big government conservatism" of the Bush Administration. Many believe that’s why the party was defeated in 2006 -- because Republicans supported too much spending and abandoned a core principle of Reaganism.

-- CNN Senior Political Analyst Bill Schneider
