Fred doesn’t want it enough. Nothing wrong with that. What drives me crazy is the talk that he’ll support McLame.

McLame is a back stabbing media candidate. That’s his constituency, the MSM. He’s on their Talk shows every Sunday. He’s a Democrat’s idea of a Republican nominee.

The Party had better understand, if it’s McLame, it’s Hillary as POTUS.

If Fred supports McCain, does that make Fred a RINO, too?

The whole idea is inconsistent with itself.

If he's not drawn to the position out of personal ambition and he thought Mclame was good enough to endorse, then he wouldn't have given up his good job and seeing his wife and family in the first place.

Fred's not dropping out and he's not endorsing Mclame.

Why should that be a surprise. Even before he entered the race, many called him McCain-lite; many speculated about about a Thompson-McCain ticket. In 00, he supported McCain. He helped write and chaired the committee that produced McCain-Feingold, which originally McCain-Feingold-Thompson Campaign Fiance Reform.

Many thought Lieberman's endorsement of McCain was something spectacular. Why? Kerry and McCain are buddies. Lieberman was on the Kerry-Lieberman ticket in 04. Many even speculated about a Kerry-McCain ticket, and McCain admitted considering it. And there has been some speculation of McCain-Lieberman ticket.

Politics makes strange bedfellows. Always had; always will. Whatever it takes to try to win.
