“Sure he’s stable. This is what John McCain has been as long as he has been on the public scene. He was the only Republican in the Keating Five debacle. He seems to author leftist bills with Democrats. He owns Democrat’s core beliefs on a number of issues.

This is John McCain, pure and simple. I know a lot of us wish he was otherwise. He just isn’t.

If you think it’s bad now, just wait until he’s in charge.

Yes, I realize Obama is worse.”

What an ugly reality you’ve described. As long as we allow the media to pick our candidates, this is what we’ll get. I can’t believe so many are willing to accept that. McCain is just being McCain, the same guy who has ticked us all off more often than not for 20 years. I do believe for some delusional reason, that McCain still believes the media is fair. I guess he has to dance with the ones that brought him here to some extent.

To be honest, almost to a man the Republicans in D.C. fail to see the media players for what they are. They fail to see the opposition for what they are also IMO. They just don’t get it. This is one of the most frustrating things.

In baseball the Democrats would be the opposing player that always spiked your team mates. Your whole team despises the guy. Then your own coach is asked about him in the press, and he lauds the guy for publication.

That’s our guys for ya...

In my estimation, McCain has a good chance of being a disaster as President.

On the other hand, Obama is a certain catastrophe.

That's about where we are...
