And, for starters, McQueeg is SO hated, by the base, that there is NOW WAY for him to win the '08 presidential primary.
As for Jeb, the Bushes were raised to be polite; even if that means that they have to lie through their teeth, about the likes of McLame.
"McQueeg is SO hated, by the base"
I'm the base, and I approve this message.
Actually, it's not hate--it's absolute DISTRUST.
Of Trojan Horses and Trojan RINOs.
I would agree except I see the "base" as being hopelessly confused and split between three or four marginal candidates.
It is hard to see anyone but Guiliani stopping McCain and would bet on a Guiliani/Allen ticket as as likely as any other.
