McCain is just on the left side of insane.

I would rather trust Castro and Chevez to keep their word before I would little Johnny McCainiac.

What's that all about?

And I ask again as I have asked several times thus far, for all you McCain apologists and 'supposed realists'out there,

"Just exactly far up your a$$ does McCain have to shove your principles for you to NOT vote for him?"

Yes, we do. He's no longer a Republican, though.

John McCain is the Republican nominee and has been endorsed by top Republican leaders. It is you and your messiah Alan Keyes who are no longer Republicans but bitcon extremists.

His collegues generally have nothing good to say of McCain:

Jim Sensenbrenner:

He is easily annoyed when his authority is disregarded. Senator John McCain, Republican of Arizona, for instance, recently promoted a compromise immigration plan that would have focused on enforcement and border security first, then carry out the more contentious changes. Asked about the McCain proposal, Mr. Sensenbrenner stares blankly and flips his hand dismissively.

Mr. Sensenbrenner goes on to say that he has no relationship with Mr. McCain, with whom he served two terms in the House in the 1980’s. “There’s some senators who come back from whence they came, and McCain is not one of them,” Mr. Sensenbrenner says. ‘‘When he left, we never saw him again.’’

Good for them. Failed, compromised, leaders endorsing failed, compromised, leaders. Why am I not impressed?

It is you and your messiah Alan Keyes who are no longer Republicans but bitcon extremists.

He's not my messiah. My Messiah's name is Jesus Christ.

But, you're correct in this. I'm no longer a Republican. The GOP has gone down the path of the Whigs, and I ain't going with them. I'll always be a republican, though.

I have no idea what a "bitcon" is.

Your unfounded charge of extremism smacks of leftist Democrat tactics. No surprise there, since you're shilling for a leftist Democrat.

Sounds as if it could have come straight out of the mouths of Fat Teddy, Hillary or the Obamessiah, huh...? ;)

If it’s nominated, John has a rubber stamp for every occasion. John’s version of the U.S. Constitution doesn’t include Senate oversight of judicial activists denying them or those who legislate from the bench confirmation to the court.

There is no difference between a Ginsberg and a Renquist in what passes for John’s mind.

He’s not alone in that assessment mind you, but just because the Senate as a whole is a vast wasteland, it doesn’t excuse anyone from voting for a Ginsberg. Senators who do, are unfit to serve in the Senate or as President IMO.

McCain ...."I appeal to the mainstream, and I'm not afraid of the primaries, of the right wing of the party. I didn't back the conservative judges"........

You ask what's it about? That's McC doing his "Mainstream Act."

Juan has an act for every occasion---depending on where he is----and what voting blocs he's sucking up to.

He and his handlers plan to divide the Nation into several competing camps.

McC'll go down in history as "The Great Divider."
