Just want to state that McCain is FAR FAR less than perfect for those conservatives that like to claim McCain opponents are “purists.”
McCain himself is the cause of the dissension in Republican ranks. He’s the problem here, not those of us who want him removed from office.
There’s no doubt McCain carries weight in the senate. That’s pretty much obvious. So what? Do we excuse everything the man does simply because he throws a crumb our way once in awhile?
If anyone is a purist here, it’s someone who claim that we MUST support the Republican label. It doesn’t matter if that carton of McCain milk is LONG curdled so long as it’s the Republican brand, right? Get a grip folks!
McCain is the enemy of conservatives. He’s even said as much. He’s even more dangerous than the left, because at least they leave no doubt which side they are on.
If Sarah Palin somehow gives McCain enough votes to put him over the top, mark my words: he’s going to be a pain in our rear for the next SIX years. Count ‘em folks. That’s six more years of back stabbing we’ll all have to endure!
“If Sarah Palin somehow gives McCain enough votes to put him over the top...”
This is my biggest fear. Most Americans don’t follow politics like we do, and even conservative leaning folks who don’t follow politics much are likely to be swayed by Palin. She alone could take Hayworth down with her popularity.
