Actually McCain was my first thought. I had heard that Jeffords outright stated that he wouldn't have anything to do with a challenge.
Actually I would laugh my a$$ off if there was a challenge. I'm a registered Independent, I don't like Republicans or Democrats - no offense - I just have serious disagreements with both. My favorite quote is:
Liberals and conservatives are two gangs who have intimidated rational, normal thinking beings into not having a voice on television or in the culture. - Jon Stewart The Daily Show
Anybody who claim his favorite quote is by Jon Stewart is not somebody I want to be liked by anyway.
if you are conservative, there isnt anything offensive by not being a Republican or even a Democrat of the Zell Miller ilk.
You see, it isnt logical for McCain to do this. He would alienate the very people he is going to suck up too for the next 4 years, i.e. the Bush supporters.....
Then go to a site for Independents. It's sad to see your moral equivalizing of the two parties, as if both were anywhere near equally bad.
Anyone who would quote Jon Stewart has some serious flaws in my opinion.
