The same people hurling insults and invective at conservatives today (including Rush) will be the first ones cheerleading for McCrazy if he is shoved down our throats in the '08 primaries.

Why don't you go back in the archives and tell me when Rush gave McCain an ounce of credibility when he was trying to get the nomination in 2000. I will bet you can't find anything.

You're right - it doesn't exist. Rush was one of the main reasons Bush won the nomination over McCrazy, and for that I am eternally grateful. He will also oppose him in the '08 primaries.

However, that has nothing to do with the point I made, and I think you know it.

If, somehow, McCain is the GOP nominee for President in 2008, Rush and the rest of the GOP-first types will support him without reservation - simply because he is the LOTE with the Beast.

Personally, I'm voting straight ticket Pubbie this year, because there are still two more years to enact conservative legislation.

I believe McCain will be shoved down our throats in '08 - in the view of the GOP party people, it is his turn (like Dole in '96).

For the record - I will never, ever, under any circumstances, vote for McCain - regardless of how much invective the GOP kool-aid drinkers spew.
