I'm not so sure about that statement

The McCain crowd as small as it is is looking for the one thing McCain has the most of: "Experience"

All of the current crop of front runners, Mitt is the most experienced in running things: large corporations, State governments, Olympics.

I think Mitt would be a natural second choice for a McCain supporter.

Also, I certainly am the last guy to support McCain, but he actually has used to have a pretty good record when it comes to voting conservative issues before he caught a mild case of BDS.

It's the knife that he sticks in your back that makes him a tough guy to vote for.

Puhleeze.

McCain supporters are pragmatic conservatives mostly.

But the've come to distrust and in many cases despise McCain, as have I.

The fact the former McCainites are moving toward Romney can only be construed as good, for Romney, that is.

Oh yes, because we’d rather all the McCain supporters end up voting for Hillary instead.

Good point. But, at least, it's not the other way around: Romney supporters leaving for the McCain team.

You would prefer they go to Giuliani?

Yep, but it'll be the same old story...political operatives and party hacks push a guy to the nomination, and then complain when he loses the general.
