We have our own little 'good-cop' 'bad-cop' thing going on....
McCain is trying to set the stage for 2008. He is a moderate RINO and he doesn't want anyone to bash him when the Republican nomination process starts. He is trying to get the nomination by coronation (ala John Kerry). He wants to not be mean to him like they were in 2000. He is one of the worst candidates for the Republican Party. I have a feeling he is already trying to get Dems involved in the Republican Primary process for 2008. He is a very dangerous many.
Once Bush wins another term, I hope Bush really blows McCain off and doesn't help him for 2008. I am afraid that Bush has already promised him some things.
Now you know what mc cain 's purpose for being there was.
To create dissention and sow discouragement.
I will gatuantee you that john kerry knew in advance every word that mc cain was going to say regarding him.
Why?
Because mc cain called kerry in advance and told him what he was saying.
From what I have seen of john mc cain I have learned two things:1. It is probably better to be his enemy than his friend.2. Anytime mc cain pats one on the back, there is a knife in his hand.
Also the odds of the people of Arizona re-electing him to the Senate should he decide to run are better that the odds that the sun will rise in the east on Saturday morning.
McVain is willing to say anything as long as the cameras are rolling and the media is trolling him with questions. He is more irrelevant every day, on a downward spiral.
I don't hear him as a voice of reason and balance any more. I hear the bitterness of a man who wants to be in the White House, and who will be exposed for his actions with the Keating scandal if he ever were to become the Rep nominee. He has more baggage than a 747 will hold. I also hold serious reservations about his overall health. I don't think he would make it 4 years in the WH, with his brain firing on all cylinders.
Every time I hear McCain speak I get an uneasy feeling that he's about to lose it.
"....milquetoast."
Say what, McLame? Somehow I think that if McCain was President and terrorists kidnapped our schoolchildren, that McCain would be handing the police straws and spitballs. Just so they wouldn't offend the sensibilities and calmness of the media and the poor distraught Islamic freedom fighters.
Hey, Johnny, shut the f@#k up!
Not if Frank Luntz's focus group of Ohio 'swing' voters is any indication.
When asked if they approved of Miller's speech, swing voters in that group overwhelmingly responded 'yes.'
When asked if they were more inclined to vote for Bush/Cheney after Miller's speech, 11 out of 17 said 'yes.'
Small sample, sure, but that's almost a 2:1 ratio.
McCain is 'out of touch.'
Please tell me that this boob won't make it onto a Republican ticket in '08.
I've never seen someone who plays both sides of the fence like McCain. In my opinion he wants to be a Republican, but needs the attention and adoration of the Press so badly. It's really sad and why Bush is such the better man.
McCain's butt-crack must really be hurtin' right about now from his pathetic attempt to straddle the fence.
I bet he's got a bad case of "splinters in the sphincter."
I'm getting tired of this egotist who only gets facetime because he mocks a lot of conservative values.
This foofoodust is DIRECTLY out of the Log Cabin Republican playbook.
