Re your picture.
Is McCain's son running for something?
Woops, that is Phil Gramm not Phil Graham
And he was one of the best Senators in my lifetime.
Will never happen. Even if McCain somehow made it out of the primaries (which won't happen), the Dems will simply run the Daisy ad again, with the same results.
Not as solid as the swimmer. I think he won with 71%. Those voters have no shame.
P Gramm isn't running for anything, my impression is that he would be an advisor. Phil while a lousey campaigner had a lot of good ideas, on a par with S Forbes IMO.
I am not a Mc Cain fan but if Gramm was involved,,,
Also Mc Cain is better than Rudy G on abortion IIRC.
The Republicans better come up with somebody for 2008 besides McCain, Guillani, or Newt Gingrich. Unless we just want to surrender to the democrats like in 1996 with Bob Dole.
All 3 of these have been pushed as good candidates but all come with so much baggage that a large part of the Republican base will not vote.
McCain - Keating Five, think we won't hear it. Plus hes insane. Lots of folks can't stand him period, no matter what the media and his fans here at FR say.
Guillani - cheats on wife, pro-abortion, pro-homosexual, anti-gun and people HERE on FR are actually pushing this guy. By 2008, it will have been 7 years since 9/11 and hes been out of the public eye too long. The tales of the heroic mayor will be ancient history. Plus he chocked and dropped out of running against Hillary twice.
Gingrich - cheats on not one, but two wives. That'll get the base going TO STAY HOME. Plus the book deal and other general crap, plus he choked and then quit also. Been out of politics too long. He has some good ideas but does anyone really think he is electable nationwide?
