McCain will be running...as an independent.
Hillary is counting on it. She needs her Ross Perot.
Excuse me, but I'm one of those "low class white outer borough types". I was born and raised in Brooklyn. Oh, and by the way; I'm Italian (the Mussolini vote, as you call it), and even worse, Sicilian (you know, the Mafia vote). Oh, did I forget to mention that I was also a Catholic? And my father was a NYC Police Officer (for 24 years, no less).
I now live on Staten Island. You know, the borough that consistently elects republicans? The borough that wanted to secede from New York City but couldn't because all those freedom-loving upstate republicans failed to stand up for it in the State Assembly?
Perhaps you should stop making generalizations and flinging insults. YOu obviously know little of what you're talking about. Must have been all those years on Long Island where reality never invades the surburban dream.
Engaging in stereotypes? That's a "conservative" premise? Sounds like bullet-proof stupidity to me.
That is the scariest thing I've heard in a long time. McCain should not do this to the country...even if Her Heinous promises him SECState or SECDEF.
McCain still has not gotten over the 2000 primaries. He now only lives to keep presenting Bush with "f*ck you, Rich Boy!" moments. At this point, McCain is just as dangerous as the worst demogogue imaginable. He has abondoned principle (like the rest of the "conservatives" in Congress) in favor of opportunism.
McCain should be kept as far away from the big ballot as humanly possible. He is, in effect, the Republican version of Teddy Kennedy.
A very perceptive characterization.
The only difference being that McEgo is driven by a sense of ambition, rather than Teddy's sense of entitlement.
Guess what Coogine, your people are a rapidly shriking demographic in NYC. Accept the fact that you are one of the many, and that, for better or worse, you share the city with folks who you despise.
