So, if it's McCain v Clinton, what are you going to do?

Since I never liked McKinnon as an ad person, I am not surprised at this -- never trusted him either and thought his ads in 2000 were way below what I would have expected and the ones reviewed that never made it to air were even worse.

The one I will always remember was the one aimed at the inner city about No Child Left Behind and they had this little blonde boy going up the steps.

Sorry, but I will vote for McCain (not in the primary) if it keeps Hillary out of the White House. Her husband desecrated it, we can't afford to have them back for another round.

It is not going to be McCain if we all get organized in our states as Conservatives and go out and defeat him in each of our primaries.

Stop this negative push of Hillary versus McCain on here -- it seems like that is what some of you want or have I hit the nail on the head.

McKinnon's ads are not the best IMHO. If I was a candidate, I would go after the firm that did Senator Nickles here in OK -- some of the best ads I have seen.

Obviously McCain. Less damage to the country.

I guess this means even more face time for Johnny MeCain McVain.

I'm sure the Old Media pundits are polishing up their knee pads to service this GOP "Maverick".

McCain is easily duped.

I would vote for McCain too against Hillary but I don't see McCain getting through the front loaded Republican primaries including Oklahoma where he is not liked. His latest deal on judges IMO is going to keep him from getting traction among the base who votes.

Third party? Maybe.

McCain will be shot down (again) before he even gets into the air of the primaries. He's a RINO, a traitor to the Party on the recent judicial spat, and has a p#ss-poor attitude on border security/immigration.

I don't see him getting the nomination either. The only states he has a chance of winning are those with open primaries. I could never understand why we allow Independents and Democrats to cross over in order to choose our candidate (and their opponent). Unfortunately, many states are moving toward open primaries which will only help McCain.

I don't know. I will not vote for Clinton. I don't want to see Bubba abuse the Lincoln Bedroom again and Hillary abuse the staff and Secret Service.

I agree. I'd never pick McCain as the Republican candidate but it'd be just plain traitorous to stand by and watch that Clinton witch get her hands on the White House.

Besides not caring a damn about America she's and incompetent that might do so much damage that it could take generations to repair. Just think about what her picks for the Supreme Court might be like.

"McKinnon said in an e-mailed statement. "My political focus right now is on a successful second-term agenda for President Bush."


So what's he been doing with his time???

It will be a cold time in hell before I vote for this political Judas.

In another article in this forum it was stated there was no philosophical difference between Hillery and McCain. I concur.

Better an infidel than a heretic and better an avowed enemy than a backstabbing Judas.

Clinton would do less damage in office than McCain.

A Republican House, Senate and Supreme Court would keep Hilary in check and enable us to elect more real Republicans in the Senate and House.

If McCain were elected, the RINOs would have a field day and wishy-washy McCain-Chafee-Snowe politics would be the rule. The media would champion McCain as a Republican, claim that this had restored their credibility as balanced and openly campaign for RINOs.

McCain is a Trojan horse inside the city - Hilary is an open foe who can be fought.
