As if the New York Times story wasn't enough to drive conservatives into the arms of John McCain, Think Progress reports that the League of Conservation Voters today awarded the presumptive Republican nominee the lowest possible score for his environmental record in 2007--a big fat zero. Quoting the Sierra Club:

McCain was the only member of Congress to skip every single crucial environmental vote scored by the organization, posting a score lower than Members of Congress who were out for much of the year due to serious illnesses-and even lower than some who died during the term.

Do you hear that Rush? He'd score better if he were worm food. As Allah would say, second look at McCain!
