Sen. John McCain said Friday that only "contracting a fatal disease" will cause him to drop out of the presidential race before the primaries begin, as he vowed to take his campaign directly to the voters of New Hampshire and other early-voting states as a means of compensating for his financial difficulties.
McCain, R-Ariz., told reporters after a speech in Concord, N.H., that he will concentrate more on town-hall meetings and bus-tour campaigning to connect with voters. He vowed to fix the fund-raising woes that have left him with just $2 million in his campaign account, but suggested that money won't be the determining factor in New Hampshire or elsewhere.
"We'll win the same way we almost win in 2000," McCain said. "They know me [in New Hampshire]. They will not go through any other prism but the direct contact I will have with the people of New Hampshire and South Carolina and Iowa, and we'll win."
He already has a fatal disease. Several in fact. For some time now, he has suffered from advanced McCain-Feingold syndrome, and if he thinks his campaign can be saved, he is also suffering from Amnestisia.
What’s the lump on the side of his face? Is that a Fatal Disease?
I hope McCain stays in. He is another voice on the campaign trail that advocates winning in Iraq and fighting the terrorists.
He already has a fatal disease. His lips are terminally attracted to Ted Kennedy’s backside.
He already has the disease...terminal “Lackamoney”.
McCain is beginning to sound like Captain Ahab.
Along with his positions on issues, his position in government also works against him. All the nonsense resolutions coming from the Senate in recent months is real-world evidence of why this country does not routinely elect sitting US Senators to the White House.
In fact, based on that, the most likely people to be elected in November 2008 are Rudy Guiliani, Mitt Romney, and Bill Richardson. It's a question of who wins the nomination.
Me, or John?
If Edwards wife has cancer, then I am the King of Siam.
That was a ploy to garner vote by playing the pity card.
The only cancer she has is her husband.
He has done great work on the war...and I’m not voting for him either.
McVain already has 3 fatal diseases:
1. Cancer
2. Amnesty
3. Life itself. No one gets out alive...
Well, I guess that means he’s gonna drop out, then.
I expect it before Thanksgiving.
Maybe he needs to fire some more campaign workers! /s
I don’t know why he doesn’t just endorse his good friend Fred Thompson and get it over with. I believe that that’s been the plan since Fred’s trial balloon went up.
>>*sigh* just let it go.
>Me, or John?
John. He’s been done for a long time now.
Yep.
He places himself under consideration for prez; not what he did in the war. His military career does not confer fitness for the WH, because his erraticness and his hodgepodge left leaning politics are disqualifying.
He is a fatal disease. It’s called Rhinoitis
Go away McShame
