Isn't it hard to be country first, when week after week the strategy changes?

If i was offered one question to ask to the presidential hopefuls i do not think i would stutter to ask John McCain one simple question. How can you say "Country First", when your message changes week after week to try and boost your ranking in the polls? I am a daily listener to POTUS radio on XM radio, and time after time over the past month i have listened to the radio broadcaster say it seems as John McCain is becoming more out of touch with voters and he has declined in the polls, so he is trying a new strategy. Doesn't that contradict country first. Doesn't that say to Americans, "Hey I'm not really sure what you need, but i know what i need is some votes, so what group can i try and help this week, retirees, workers, oil companies, who wants me?" John McCain also says "Country First", yet decides that the swing state of Michigan was a waste of money, so he pulls his resources out of Michigan! What does that say to the people of Michigan, "Hey you need me more than I need you." John McCain, you say you want to straight talk, but all i hear is a man who wants more power, and will do whatever he can to get it.
