If McCain is the nominee millions of conservatives will stay home. If so, they's better pick up lots and lots of Democrats.

"If McCain is the nominee millions of conservatives will stay home."

It's going to be tough for McCain to get the nomination because your die-hard conservatives are the ones who "rule" in the GOP Primaries; just like the left-wing kooks run the Dem Primaries. Remember 2000? McCain did o.k. in New Hampshire but after that.......
McCain may be offered the #2 spot by the nominee; whoever that might be. Personally, I'd like to see this ticket: Allen / Rice

It's a setup. The lefty media and the establishment is trying to feed us another Bob Dole. They told us he "was electable" too. I remember barely being able to make myself vote, and it was Clinton he was running against.

The only thing that would make most of the non Rino's here support either of the two front runners is fear and loathing of Hillary Clinton. Now fear and loathing really helped us out back in 1996, didn't it?

Moderates stand for very little. They are status quo, get along with the Democrats, stab you in the back types. In certain socialist bastions, electing one of them is a plus over a totalitarian Bolshevik Democrat. But national elections are not the time to run them.

I wouldn't worry about McCain.

The Conservative political junkies are the ones that mainly vote in the primaries. The same happens with the Democratic nomination and primaries.

Otherwise, McCain would have won it in 2000.

True. Everyone should write the RNC to tell them this. Maybe there's time to make a difference yet. (Do you suppose that the GOP is throwing in the towel so the New
World Order can take over?) :>(

I will not vote for McCain in the primaries unless he disavows CFR.

I will not abandon the republican candidate in the general election even if it is McCain. McCain is conservative in other areas that are worth protecting, and I'd rather have him selecting judges than Hillary Clinton.

My favorite is Dick Cheney.

2nd favorite is Jeb Bush.
