Whatever, it's cheap, petty, and utterly lacking in honor. Some demos voted for McCain, no doubt, but the impression I get is that they did it because they liked him.

I believe your memory of "some democrats" is somewhat flawed. "Some dems" along with the press got McCain enough early publicity (along with poor campaigning by the rest of the republican field) to make him the early leader.
The dems in those early primary states will no way support him against a democrat. They voted for him because he was appealing to democrat voters--as opposed to the other repubs. But when faced with the choice between a faux democrat ( McCain), and the true democrat, they will vote for the true dem.
IMO, cross-over voting should be banned. The primaries are elections used by the parties to select the party's candidates. Allowing non-party members to have a say in them is suicidal.
