I guess, then, you didn't read the story done about Kerry by the reporters that had access throughout his campaign? That revealed after the fact conversations held with McCain? A McCain that let Kerry and the MSM dangle on a hook while he enjoyed the attention? Do not peddle that line it was a MSM pushed event. It damn well was nothing of the kind, Mccain was an active participant and enjoyed every single second at Bush's and the Republican Party's expense of whether he'd jump ship.
Do I believe he was going to do so? No, I think McCain knew Kerry was a loser and he doesn't want to play second to Kerry. But he didn't turn it down out of loyalty to the party but rather he wants to be President himself.
refering to your other point, McCain organizized blockage of a vote to break the Judicial filibuster being pushed by the Republican leadership (Frist, McConnell, Santorum) is evidence of McCain helping his Party do business? That example was the exact opposite. It was McCain breaking away to form his own unelected third Party in the halls of Congress to block the Republican President's constitutional right to have an up or down vote on his nominees in the Republican Majority Senate.
Once again the RINO stabs the PARTY in the back. No one said McCain had to vote yay or nay. he could vote however he chose and face the consequences. But he blocked the vote. That's entirely different.
he is a RINO, and all the rehabilitation in the world will NOT change that assessment among parties of this board or conservatives, and frankly, Republicans, in general.
McCain is a RINO.
No, I think McCain knew Kerry was a loser and he doesn't want to play second to Kerry.
On this we agree.
McCain won't play second to anyone. He's not my kind of candidate.
Still think the MSM knew Kerry needed Red States to win and over hyped the VP suggestion.
