Well, McCain gets the Boston Globe’s endorsement!! This is a real badge of honor for Republicans. Next, he will try to get the endorsement of the teacher’s unions.

He is no hero at all in the world of politics. He is a liberal.

Except McCain is a backstabbing politician who pouts and whines when he doesn’t get his way.
Now, if he wants to take a shot at being Secretary of State, I’d give him the chance.

At this point in time and with Hillary crashing as much as she is, just about any Republican can win the election. Now I said “just about”. Alan Keys is out for sure. I prefer to see Fred Thompson or Duncan Hunter. I think if people saw more of Hunter, it would be a good thing.

Meanwhile Duncan Hunter was kicking ass and taking names as a Ranger in ‘Nam and all we hear about is Mccain.
To: stm
Funny, this could have been written by Fred Thompson in 2000. Except it wasn’t quite as in awe of McCain as Thompson was.

McCain is no military hero either. I have a good friend here in town that was an A-6 BN who was shot down and was in the Hanoi Hilton with McCain. It sends Bill’s blood pressure skyrocketing just at the mention of his name. He was a rat and a weasel who sold his soul to the VC.

This is not an endorsement from the B.S. Globe.
Jane Swift served as acting governor of Massachusetts from 2001 to 2003.
Probably the worst Governor in the history of Mass.(including Dukakis).

McCain has an American Conservative Union (ACU) rating of 65 in 2006 - hardly a liberal.
Compare to Obama at 8 and Clinton at 12.
But he ain’t Duncan Hunter, who has an 88!
And I have yet to forgive him for CFR, the “gang of 14” and his anti-”torture” idiocy.

To: Norman Bates
As pointed out here John McCain has some baggage. However, he stands head and shoulders above anyone in the Democratic field and, should he fight his way to the front, will be supported, I believe, by a substantial portion of the electorate.

Common sense conservatism
To: Norman Bates
Sorry! McCain’s war record aside, his amnesty plan was a disaster for his campaign.
To: pissant
How is an ACU rating of 83 a liberal's?
I'll never claim McCain is the most conservative, but he is consistent in his conservatism.

He was a rat and a weasel who sold his soul to the VC - that may be - I will give any tortured POW a break no matter what they did or said.
To: stm
Col. Bud Day, the most decorated living US veteran, who shared a cell with McCain in Hanoi, would vehemently disagree.
