Maybe McCain should also campaign in black neighborhoods, they might vote for him too.
Sure they will.
I hope that you’re right, but it won’t be for lack of the biased media protecting and enabling him to get away with it. All our Republican surrogates do is stutter, “...uh...well...I apologise for living, I didn’t mean to ask anything so racist as what will Obama do about Iran”, etc. The media sets them up, and they fall right in it. It’s as if all the really smart Republican spokespeople, such as Blankley, who could first call them on their strawman and then put the onus on Obama to just answer a damn question and take a position, have pretty much opted out of it. I don’t know if they’re just fed up, gotten too cynical (which I could fully understand), or what.
I don’t know if I can put too much faith in the ability of white liberals to ever get fed up with their masochistic assumed guilt. I lurk on some ‘rat forums, and I am amazed to read at how they are “ashamed” of being white, for pity’s sake. They can’t beat themselves up enough, they seem to wallow in it, the more the better. No criticism is too outlandish, no assumption of guilt enough. What’s worse, they presume to speak for all whites instead of just their sick twisted selves.
I agree. If McCain wants to pander, why doesn’t he “pander” to the group with whom he could have a realistic shot of getting their votes, ie the base of the party, conservatives? Are truly conservative principles that repugnant to him? Conservative votes are not a given for him, and you’d think that worry any Republican candidate. But not Juan McCain! He’s going to “reach out” to La Raza, of all people!
He needs to reach out to Republicans and secure his base... forget wasting time and money with groups that have NO INTENTION of supporting him.

Conservatives?
“Are truly conservative principles that repugnant to him?”
Yep.
I'll take it.

I enjoy American Idol, very much. It’s good, clean, entertainment...something we so desperately lack these days.
I’m neither average nor a freak.
There’s nothing wrong with watching American Idol.
What I’m complaining about are the people who don’t think beyond the TeeVee set. Maybe instead of calling them “American Idol” voters, I should address them as TeeVee voters.
The “American Idol” voter-by my definition-doesn’t research the candidates or where they stand on issues. They pick whoever the TeeVee tells them to pick, or whoever the “American Idol” of the moment is as determined by MSM.
>The best way they can reach the average “American Idol” voter is to jettison any dignity they might have once posessed and appear as the freaks they are on these side shows.<
I wasn’t calling American Idol viewers freaks. I was addressing the prez candies.
