After attending a fundraiser for John McCains Senate re-election a campaign in which McCain is locked in a tight race with conservative primary challenger Kelli Ward Kristol mused on Twitter if McCain would run as an independent candidate in the presidential election.
But while Kristol was just speculating, McCain added intrigue to the Stop Trump movement with his surprise announcement that the delegates should be free to vote their conscience at the upcoming Republican Convention
Ain’t gonna happen.
McPain II.
What are lowers like McCain and Ryan, log cabin mittens Romney and Cruz thinking?
MeLettuce PING
MeLettuce PING
Why are you lumping Ted Cruz with those others?
McCain and Kristol have some kind of delusional insanity.
I'm not sure where Lefty McLame and the Piece of Mitt get off thinking that people actually voted for THEM.
Because I sure didn't...
I hope McCain gets beat in a landslide, same goes for Paul Ryan.
It isn’t going to hand it to anyone. Kristol has said that he will consider voting for Trump if Flynn is the VP, after advising him to run with a military leader. Mission accomplished.
Has Cruz endorsed trump????????
This is like pouring acid in a RINO hole. The RINO’s are flying out of their nest. Trump has exposed all these democrats in RINO clothing...McCain, Ryan, Romney, Kasich and Cruz.
Hillary Rotten Criminal should choose Bill Kristol for her running mate, that way the ‘RATS can still have two vaginas on the ticket.
FK McCain.
GOP primary voters voted their conscience and Trump won.
Unless the GOP not only wants Hillary, but a down ballot GOP
disaster, someone had better tell these fools that is what they are
going to get. A down ballot GOP disaster. The like of which they
can’t imagine.
Except for the small fact it takes millions of signatures to get on the ballot in each state and most states it’s too late anyway, it’s a great plan.
and.....add the Bushes to that list, of course!
For some folks, its not enough to like their candidate, you have to hate all the others too.
McCain would hand the election to Hillary?
Doubtful.
If McCain ran as an Independent, he would not get one Electoral Vote.
The only reason he got as many as he did in 2008 was because he was the nominee of a major party. And just barely got more than Jimmy Carter got in 1980.
More like 2 Butt holes?
