Disclosure: I’m reading the thread from the back to the front. Your post is exquisite.
I held my nose and voted for >>> his name that shall not be mentioned <<< in order to get Sarah Palin.
Instead of (hntsnbm) Sarah Palin/The Tea Party, inherited the party mantle, putting (hntsnbm) in isolation. (Hntsnbm) woke up to find himself adrift and without a political mandate, because he was definitively persona non grata in his own party. He owned this position due to his own inequities, flaws... and overall bitterness... and incompetence.
Fast forward- we now have a man incapable of recognizing his own flaws, especially his self loathing, eating away at his core, turning his ire on his fellow countrymen, instead of owning his self hatred, rather than projecting it upon all of us.
Thanks. And I really believe McCain is being blackmailed in some hideous Hellish manner; nothing else makes sense.
And I put all of the lying Bush RINOs who have turned traitor in this same category... like John Roberts, Denny Hastert.
I wish there was a way for these men to get out of their predicaments without levying so much damage against this nation.
