I'm beginning to think that John McCain, no favorite of most of us here, will coast to the 2008 GOP nomination, much as Reagan did 28 years earlier.

I predict that too, but with George Allen as VP. Better the two of them than Hillary.

You're smokin rope. No way will conservatives rally behind the McCainiac.

Someone will step out, it's still very early. Think Karl Rove would allow McCainiac to follow GWB? ;)

Not McCain. Just like in 2000, he might start off strong in the primaries in "open primary" states where one doesn't have to be a registered Pubbie to vote in the GOP primary. Once he gets to states where only registered Republicans can vote (in primary) then he'll go down.

He won't even make it to super tuesday>

At which point, he'll blame all the moderates for spliting his votes.

With Rudy and Romney running, its going to divide McCains vote numbers into small digits.
