John McCain is a fool

Gee, John, ya think...???
Look what his support in Michigan for Joe Schwarz got him -- Schwarz was UNELECTED in the primary, soundly spanked by a true conservative, Tim Walberg.
Take a clue, Mr. McCainiac...conservatives REMEMBER and WILL NOT vote for you!
If you think someone who votes your way 90% of the time is the enemy, then most of the GOP is your enemy.
"lingering resentment?" Where? I haven't come across any of it anywhere from anyone. In fact, everybody that I've heard from on the subject of McCain is agreed that they simply don't want a president who was held as a prisoner of war by one of our enemies. Period!
I'll be blunt. I won't vote democratic, not ever, they tried to disenfranchise me in 2000. That's a stain that just won't wash.
If the Republicans run a McCain or Giulaini, they had better be ready to give up the White House. I'm not the only one that won't vote for either of these two either way.
I like Giuliani, so long as he is a mayor of a city I am far away from and have no reason to ever visit.
One question.
When have I called Lindsey "evil" or a "Marxist"?
Oh, right, I didn't. You did.
Anyway, I thought I said this to you before, or maybe it was to someone like you? I've heard the propaganda from the SOROS Mainstreet side of the wing already. Already responded to it. It's not worth it to do it again. You guys are as illogical in your insults as you are in your ideology. Which, in this case, is liberalism.
I know it still hurts you LOST one of your "own" incumbents the other week, but really..very few Americans give a damn. Which makes it hurt more I realize. You evidently think America is craving "moderate (Liberal) leadership from you. Guess not.
The reality is that you guys declared political war on conservatives, now that the fight isn't going the way you anticipated you cry foul. Don't start a political war you can't win. You should have learned that after the dismissal of the Rockefeller's with Reagan's win.
Funny thing is, you know the saying it'll come back to haunt you and that's exactly what will happen to McWhiner if he ever get the nob. That little piece of crappy legilation will....DONE HIM IN! Soros and the rest of the looney left will have a field day!
McCain is a mentally-ill nutcase, overburdened with his POW baggage from Nam (I served '69-71), carrying his guilt and shame like stripes on his dirty, liberal sleeve. He needs psychiatric help, in mega-doses, and is unfit for any elected office. I thank him for his military service, but I spit on him for his treason to America.
In other words, John McCain is an opportunist -- an unprincipaled opportunist.
And he is impulsive.
A potentially deadly combination...
He needs to remember that a whole lot of us HATE him for McCain/Fiengold, the cretinous GANG OF 14 garbages, and a whole LOT of other things besides what happened in 2000.
I recall seeing a TV clip of McCain sceaming at Maria Shiver as she politely attempted to ask him a question backstage at one of his political rallies in 2000
Senator John McCain is a mean - nasty - arrogant bum when he does not think the cameras are rolling on him
I'd simplify that
McCain is insane
I do hope you are correct.
I've read that in articles too. They said he acts crazy off camera!
Look at the pic. The guy's old and haggard. Reminds me of FDR at Yalta.
His obsession with our guys torturing terrorists was the final straw --- and weird.
Lots of alleged "conservatives" have called Lindsey evil, marxist, etc. Bill Clinton agrees and thanks them in his efforts to purge the house managers.
>> I've heard the propaganda from the SOROS Mainstreet side of the wing already. <<
What the hell does Soros have to do with this? Are you saying Soros backs Lindsey Graham's election?
>> You guys are as illogical in your insults as you are in your ideology. Which, in this case, is liberalism. <<
Ah, backing pro-life, pro-gun, pro-tax cut Republicans who lead the fight to impeach Clinton makes me a liberal. You're just proven by point, that you're as deranged as the Lamont types who think Gore's running mate is working for Bush.
>> You evidently think America is craving "moderate (Liberal) leadership from you. Guess not. <<

If you can find any rank and file "moderate/liberal" voters who whole-heartily embrace such positions, let me know. Last time I checked, all those "moderate/liberal" Senators like Olmypia Snowe wouldn't be caught dead voting like that.
>> The reality is that you guys declared political war on conservatives <<
The reality is that Lindsey Graham is a solid conservative and I have a long time record of OPPOSING moderate/liberal RINOs like Arlen Specter who regularly support the Dems.
Unforutnately for you, reality is that you're a nutcase who thinks anyone who "only" votes your way 90% of the time instead of 100% of the time is a "liberal" and the enemy, which means you're the idelogical heir of Ned Lamont and his gang of lunatic purists. The Lamont gang thinks anyone who voted for the Iraq War is a Bush clone and must be purged (that's about 3/4th of the elected Dem officials) Likewise, since roughly 3/4th of the GOP doesn't fit your own ultra-purist standard, perhaps you'd be happier starting your own party where everyone has to do your bidding 100% of the time.
>> You should have learned that after the dismissal of the Rockefeller's with Reagan's win. <<
The Rockefeller wing of the party dismissed anyone with Lindsey Graham's "record" as an unelectable right-wing idealogue. Linc Chafee and his ill never vote with Graham. Only a fool could believe Lindsey Graham's 90% conservative rating makes him the same ideology as a typical big-government, pro-abortion, gun grabbing RINOs from New York with a 30% conservative rating.
The Lamontites in the Dem party want to purge people who agree with them 90% of the time and the Lamonites in the GOP want to do likewise. We Republicans love watching the Lamonties in the RAT party self-destruct and eat their own and the Dems likewise (especially Slick Willie I'm sure) are breaking out the popcorn hoping you "purge" of their longtime enemy Lindsey Graham. You are your own worst enemy.
We conservatives will support people who vote our way 90% of the time. You Lamontites should start your own party where everyone has to vote your way 100% on every issue or be run out of town on a rail. Heil Soul Seeker!
Oh, and Lindsey Graham supported Reagan for President, not the "Rockefeller Republicans". Graham has always said his political heros were Reagan and Winston Churchill. Graham was supporting conservative Republicans in the early 80s when alot of "true conservatives" in South Carolina were still voting for communist RATs.
Don't let facts get in the way of your rant about Graham being a "Rockefeller Republican" though. I'm sure in your fantasyland he was endorsed by Jim Jeffords.
