McCain sounds like presidential hopeful (Senator said he & Rudy 'most popular' Republicans)

The only committed conservatives I see mentioned ever are Pence and Tancredo.Name ID will rise with time.

Tancredo has name recognition. His silly statement about nuking Mecca has doomed any presidential ambitions, ever.

And Mike Pence has no platform from which to gain name recognition. He is not a "go to" guy when the press wants a comment on something, or for the Sunday shows.

So who's ever going to hear about him?

>>>>>"My ego is sufficient to say that I think I have the background and experience to take on these challenges,"

If ego were the main job requirement, his opponent would be other Democratic Senator from New York.

[sinkspur]

Forf starters, he'll be rather old ( and he's no Reagan !), his cancer keeps coming back, most GOPers and ALL Conservatives hate the CFR Bill, and Senators have a lousy track record running for president! Oh yes, and the RNC isn't enamored of McLane at all, so they aren't going to help him at all.

Well, his age does work against him, though his cancer hasn't returned for a couple of years.

If McCain ran against Hillary, a Senator would win the presidency, for sure.

The RNC will support whoever wins the primaries. If McCain were to win, he would have all the support from the RNC he needed.

Who do you think makes up the RNC?

[SC33]

I'll vote for Hillary before I'll vote for McCain. I can't stand that guy.

"And Mike Pence has no platform from which to gain name recognition. He is not a "go to" guy when the press wants a comment on something, or for the Sunday shows."

Are you kidding me? If you are not please do some research(hint Pence in WSJ today WASH post Yesterday,AP today,ABC Sunday show ON SUNDAY etc etc)

[nopardons]

Reread what I wrote...I said IN THE PRIMARIES !

You know as well as I do, that President Bush was chosen and groomed to win the '00 primaries. Whom do you suppose did that? :-)

I know that most here will hoot and scream at me, but frankly, I would not be surprised at all, if Hitlery! doesn't run in the Dem presidential primaries in '08.

[momf]

his ego is such God should ask advice. If Az doesn't wake up, they'll have another Kennedy on their hands.

[sinkspur]

Well, the audience for the Sunday shows is small (even though that is a start).

You're a Pence backer, so you have blinders on about him.

The last House Rep who ran for President and won was......I forget. Perhaps you know.

[meema]

Barf...
We already knew he has a powerful ego.
Disgusting man.

[Rudder]

LOL! Hillarious! (and perfectly understandable...)

[whizeup]

WFC'S who Anus is? Or McCain? Please go away...both of them!

[lormand]

"WFC'S who Anus is?"

LMAO

I actually heard "Anus" say "I hate the media" and then refer to an unflattering article from NewsMax. Meanwhile, he will constantly have David Gregory, McCain, Biden, and lots of other media whores on his show.

[sgtbono2002]

McCain cant make it through the primary's ,Most Republicans are on to his act. Now if he did slide through the Democrats might elect him. Why not , he is one of them.

[whizeup]

All the support from the RNC that McCain needs? I DO NOT think so....maybe George Allen, not McCain, never Happen!

[nickcarraway]

Something that would ensure President Hillary Clinton in 2008.

[whizeup]

Slick Kaplan took over MSNBC and Anus got worse than he was....include Time and Newsweek and all the other socialist's, putting it nicely...used to like Bernard but can barely tolerate him...Rob Bartlett is all about left of that losing show...by the way conservatives, beware of McCain pulling a Perot, with the liberal MSM media behind it, so he can get whatever position he wants from either side, unless we get a STRONG conservative in there...not a global-warming lover...against the 2nd amendment back-stabber like McCain...maverick my rear-end....

[Osage Orange]

McLame...thinks he's still in Junior High..talking to some young sheila at the sock-hop..saying: "Me and Rudy were voted by the student body "Most Popular".....

What a dork.

[Gipper08]

Garfield.
Pence's ID IS low,but that is changing because he DOEs have a platform and he IS a go to guy for the media(whom he plays like a fiddle)

[Borges]

I meant as a news story.
