sounds OK to me, McCain has been good at supporting Bush regarding the war issues.

By the time the Democratic convention rolls around, the coalition of the wild-eyed will be in such a lather that the convention is going to be one bit Wellstone like rally. The Pubs are going to come off so much better.

If McCain behaves himself, which he has been recently, this is great.

McCain, Guiliani, and let us not forget that Great Democrat Zell Miller, who will be speaking at the Republican Convention.

Whatever happened to reporting facts?

This is an opinion piece disguised as a new story.....typical of the NY Slimes.

McCain's been supporting the 'wide open borders' policy, too. Down here, in Arizona, he's practically head of the 'welcome wagon' committee. RINO, pure and simple - with emphasis on SIMPLE. Rudy is an excellent choice, however!

Pro-choice; no ban on partial-birth abortions

I imagine that will not be part of his speech at the convention!

Migeul Estrada should deliver a speech, in Spanish.

At that year's convention, in Houston, more conservative speakers were given high-profile spots, setting a tone for the convention that haunted former President George Bush throughout the campaign.

Including Pat's speech in which he (accurately) forcast the shape of the cultural war.

partial birth abortion will not be legalized as a result of his speech at the convention.

Oh and I will be LMAO when John McCain in prime time tells Kerry that NO -he won't be his VP. Priceless.

And Garrett Morris (of '70's SNL fame) should do the re-cap speech for the hearing impaired!

I think the convention would be a good place for the republicans to showcase some new talent, i.e. future presidential material. And John McCain shouldn't be on that list.

Only about 35 percent of the voters are Democrats and only about 35 percent are Republicans.

A Republican candidate that runs as a conservative will only get 38 or 39 percent of the vote. A democrat that runs as a liberal will only get 38 or 39 percent of the votes. Conservatives and Liberals... both must have flunked math. It takes a bit over 50 percent of the votes to win.

It is the center that decides all presidential elections. Bush has to go after them and so does Kerry.

Bush 41 tried to reach out to the right in 1992 while Bill Clinton (the New Democrat) reached out to the center.

Bush and Rove understand that he who wins the center gets elected.

Candidates who do not go after the center are forever referred to as Defeated Candidates.

Why do Arizona voters send him back to the senate then. It looks to me as if his stand on open borders wouldn't be very popular with Arizona voters.
