This is why this “winning at any price” mentality is so wrong. Do these people forget the Democrats trying to get McCain to flip party's in Jan 2006? Forget that Dems wanted McCain as their VP candidate in 2004?

How quickly the talking heads forget McCain’s record. From Tax-cuts to the War to Judges McCain’s whole strategy has been to be as Liberal as possible and stay in the GOP. Anti Terrorists? McCain wants to close Gitmo and give terrorists the same legal protection as US Citizens!

Politically there is very little difference between Hillary and McCain. You get minor variations on this and that issue, like abortion, but over all McCain and Clinton share the same political philopshical outlook

McCain has done nothing for the Conservative movement in 8 years. While talking a good game on spending, he has done nothing. He has actively worked against the Conservatives on Social issues, on the WOT, on Iraq, on Gitmo, against Rummy, on Immigration and on Judges, on Global Warming etc etc etc etc etc. McCain has far more in common with Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama then he does with Tom Coburn or the Senate GOP.

McCain would be the worse of both worlds. A mislabeled “Conservative” Administration actively advancing the Democrat Party’s agenda while knifing Conservatives in the back daily. You could even count on a McCain Administration appointing Leftist Judges in order to avoid fighting with the Democrats in the US Senate.

McCain would fracture the few remaining GOP Congress critters into pro and anti McCain factions. McCain would be the worst of all world politically for the Conservatives. At least with a Democrat Leftist Administration, as opposed to a McCain Leftist with a GOP Label Administration, the Democrats would get all the political fall out of their disastrous political decisions and the GOP would unite in fighting them.

The worst of all possible worlds for us in 2008 would be McCain getting elected President.

Yea, verily, Rush—this is about the future of the Republican party, and it won’t survive by “attracting” liberals and so-called moderates. It will only survive (as a viable political power) by adhering to conservative principles.

Nice medium-rant. I expect the next one to be longer.

If we choose a middle of the road candidate, we’re going to get run over.

The DEMOCRAT CANDIDATES ARE NOT MOVING TO THE MIDDLE!

And their base is energized.

Rush’s segment on McLame was right on target.

Exactly. You can’t make 100% of people happy 100% of the time.

His participation in the “Gang of 14” sealed the deal for me. Never, no way, forget it.

Holy mackerel. If Rush is going to bring up the POW MIA story then I hope he has some better sources than that one guy who has made all the websites and seems to be the soul complainer. The fact that coconut Ross Perot would pick up the cause further diminishes its veracity. Perot is probably the one who paid for the mailers in S.C. I was wondering where the Kiley guy got the money.
