I think McCain honestly believed all the fawning ink written about him: how he was a moderate, “hands-across-the-aisle” sort of figure. A “maverick” in his own party. He figured that that if he didn’t say anything that could be construed remotely as “racist”, he’d win. And he kept his Senate seat, knowing he had power to return to if he lost. So he never even really tried. He spent more time telling folks what a “good guy” and “nice man” that Obama was than taking any clear stand against him.

Then he lost and JD Hayworth ran against him in a Senate primary and the gloves were off. Suddenly, McCain _really_ had something to lose (all that Senate power, seniority, and gravy) and he wasn’t about to let a radio talk show host come even close to beating him.

I pray for you friends, for really this is going to get really nasty, knowing Obama and his cohorts in media, wait; you will start hearing words of racism and more.

If he’s sweating already, and getting nervous, think what will happen at the end of the run.

He has made United States laughing country on international geo-political arena. I have read a lot on this forum about his opponent, can I write about it - no, for this is your house and you know what has to be done.

Same time reality can be cruel as well, but your country first, I notice many fighting and as I have written before, time for emotions is for later, now unite and fight, do not let enemies take advantage of you, don’t divide yourselves, move forward to make sure true conservatives are in two important chambers of your government.

Merci

Merci

That or McCain and obama work for the same boss or close enough.

No doubt about Mitt, though. He wants it. Bad.

And, he needs obama and obama's record to run against.

He'd be beaten by almost any other potential demonrat other than Biden, especially by Hillary.

He needs obama.
