If its McCain, the GOP is sunk. If he's elected, the nation is sunk. The man responsible for CFR should be in jail, not the Senate or the White House.

Even if the GOP keeps its majorities, they should never nominate a member of Congress. Governors are the best way to go.

If national security is still an issue, Rudy will win it all in a blowout.

>>McCain will not survive the primary process. The base hates him.

Unless a bunch of conservatives get in and split the vote enough that McCain ekes through. In any primary where the independents can vote in the Republican primary, McCain will get a big boost.

But you're right if the race is McCain versus one conservative in a Republican primary, McCain loses.

Condi Rice is the Anti-McCain. She will beat McCain, and will then beat whomever the Donks put up. She will be our next President of the United States, and we could do much, much worse.


"Hello, Condoleezza Rice here to ask why so many people are still using my name as a serious presidential candidate in 2008. I've said only a thousand times that I'm not running and am starting to wonder how long it will be before some get it through their heads I'm not interested."

Beware McCain. He will do to the Republicans what Cameron did to the Conservative Party in Britain.

No. The anti-McCain will be a conservative.

The Republican candidate who wins the 2008 presidential elections will not be John McCain, George Allen or Rudi Giuliani.

All three are politicians.

The people who vote Republican don't like politicians, these people will only elect a man of courage and resolve, a man who can and will protect our boarders.

A man like Condi Rice.

From a policy standpoint, I don't know about that. I think she's much more moderate than people realize.

We'll see.

Are conservatives dumb enough to allow McCain to win it??

Judging from the TN Senate primary, I'd say yup...

The 100 percenters are such purists.

Conservative candidate A is 100% prolife but only 95% RKBA

Conservative candidate B is 100% RKBA but only 95% pro-life

RINO Candidate is 50% RKBA and 50% prolife


Guess who wins the nomination?

Why would Rudy agree to run as #2? If he's offered #2, my sense is that he won't take it. Besides, I'm not impressed with Allen. If he wins his re-election bid in a squeeker, he's dead for '08. His chances may be dead already. Among the other possibilities, Romney's the only one who impresses me. I would consider supporting Condi, but she'd first need to indicate an interest in running. If she doesn't resign as Secty. of State in early '07 to consider a run for president, she's not going to be in.

And the quicker one of them stands alone against McCain, the better off they will be.

And the better off we -- and the country -- will be.

Condi isn't going to run, Condi doesn't want to be president, and no amount of wishing, on your part, is going to make it happen.

I believe the Clintons will put up another Ross Perot-Hitlery is then elected.

And, this time, it may well be McEgo who plays the role of Ross Perot...

Exactly so.

The MSM is still pushing McQueeg, but he has NO chance of winning the primary; NONE!
