No apology necessary. I know how the system is supposed to work. I just doubt that it is. There is too much manipulation going on and I’m convinced McCain got the nomination because it was ‘his’ turn. Maybe I’m too cynical.

It's my opinion that the government controlled media pushes our candidates. They pushed Rudy. Then when Fred entered the race, they pushed Huckabee splitting the conservatives. It was at that point, with Rudy going nowhere, that the government controlled media finally pushed McCain.

And to add insult to injury they are probably pushing the line, that McCain was all the RNC's fault. Don't fall for it.

McCain became the nominee because HE GOT THE MOST VOTES in the primaries. One HUGE problem is that Republicans allow independents to vote in their primaries. This opens the door to what happened in 2008. Democrats could “temporarily” switch their voter registration and vote in the Republican primary for whomever they thought would be easier for them to beat in the general election. Thia should not be allowed to happen!!!

Due to my work schedule, I could not listen to all of Rush yesterday, but in the part I did hear he made a very definite point about the Tea Parties. Many people were upset with some of Bush'e policies, but it never motivated them like seeing what a REAL radical like Obama has been able to do in just eight short months. He said, and rightly so, that NO Republican would ever propose the ideas that Obama is proposing, although they might be persuaded to vote for the final bill. What is happening now is a reaction to leftist DEMOCRATC ideas, not Rino Republican activities.

I’m smart enough to know that I don’t know all the goings on. It reminds me a little of national security. IF we knew everything going on in the world right now there would be no more good nights’ rest. IF we knew what went on in the power circles of either party, and for all we know it could by now be the same circle, there would be no option but to wipe the slate clean and start over.
