I said go for Fred in South Carolina because I wanted to give Thompson a chance to mix this race up.
But Fred fell short now and the main concern of mine is to beat McCain.
There's a media orgasm-coronation going on right now and we have to have straight heads to stop it.
Lets not infight and let trolls lead us atray.
Here's a serious look at how to defeat a man who's a virtual Democrat and a traitor to the conservative cause in this country.
McCain-Feingold made the First Amendment into toilet paper.
The law was designed to protect incumbent politicians by keeping little candidates from getting outside support to defeat entrenched politicians.
And we all have a list of what McCain has done to help Democrats and hurt Conservatives from the Gang of Fourteen on down.
Straight heads must prevail at this point.
I've heard two guys on two different networks (David Gergen on CNN, Bill Sammon of the "Washington Examiner" on Fox News) point out that Thompson is a "friend" of McCain. Sammon suggested Fred will endorse McCain.
That should settle the issue I brought up some weeks ago about Fred being a McCain front if it pans out.
Fred can't do much if he stays in right now but hold Tennessee which if he wants to run there on February 5th makes me happy enough.
McCain must be defeated by tactical voting.
I only hope Giuliani doesn't collapse from the media wave before we reach New York on February 5th. Its a winner take all primary and the only candidate who can take out McCain there is Rudy.
In New York and New Jersey on February 5th, I'm certain Rudy is the anti-McCain vote to defeat him there. You have to vote Rudy there to stamp out the McCain Mutiny.
Romney will contest Florida so vote for him there on the 29th to stop McCain.
Huckabee at least campaigned against McCain in the last few days in South Carolina.
The return the illegals pledge he signed along with on-air (MSNBC) criticism of McCain-Feingold I saw was clearly aimed at McCain.
But yes Huckabee always says nice things about McCain.
Maybe that's just his style.
If Huckabee is a shill for McCain, lets make Huck prove it by giving him wins and delegates in states where he is strongest. On February 5th, that will be Oklahoma, Alabama and or course Arkansas.
Back to Romney, he's the obvious choice in Utah, Colorado and Massachusetts on February 5th.
Romney should probably contest Missouri so you know who to vote for there.
Wouldn't it be nice if the native son of Missouri who's name inspired mine finally came out of the closet for Romney?
Is he fiddlin around while the Republican Party burns?
Emporer McCain and his media buddies are torching the place right now.
Focus your vote in the next few weeks on the strongest possible candidate in your state to defeat McCain.
Its straight heads time and I won't attack Huck, Romney or Rudy at this point because I'm not in the McCain helping business.
The grim task is to knock McCain down so hopefully a conservative alternative can rise up (that would probably be Romney). (ALL CRITICS CAN SHUT UP AT THIS POINT BECAUSE YOU ONLY HELP MCCAIN BY TRASHING ROMNEY)
But I will accept the other two as alternatives.
Get real, don't let the beltway crowd steal the Republican Party away from us.
THE ESTABLISHMENT CANDIDATE IS MCCAIN.
Guys like former Secretaries of State Henry Kissinger and Alexander Haig, the Rockefeller Republicans are in the McCain camp.
Also President Bush's friend, former Homeland Security Secretary and PA Governor Tom Ridge is on the McCain bandwagon.
On Friday, by the way, Ridge called "waterboarding torture. That echoes the McCain position of course.
I may not agree with everything John McCain stands for, but at least I know what he stands for.
There’s not enough difference between Hitlery and McLame to make a difference. Looking forward to 2012.
Ditto on McCain being too liberal in another case.
The problem is that her influence will last decades when she appoints two new Ginsberg types to the Supreme court.
This is sickening. 8 years of Clintons cultivating and enabling terrorists that resulted in 9/11. What color is the sky in the world that you live in?
Fred isn’t going to endorse McCain. Those who keep parroting that tired line should give it up. He also isn’t going to drop and if he did there is not many of his supporters who would support Romney or Huckabee. There is a reason we chose Fred and that reason is leadership, a basic understanding of conservative and founding principles, he talks unashamed of his conservatism, he walked the walk with a voting record on conservative issues that very few rival and he has clear conservative plans to address immigration, the economy, and national security. He stands tall as the one candidate who did not chase after the Democrats a year before we normally start this race and waste millions of dollars building up what has only collapsed into nothing. Their advantages nearly have disappeared. If spending millions of dollars to do nothing makes you feel proud of your candidate then he will certainly fit well in Washington.
You are correct. I was a Thompson supporter less than 24 hours ago. Romney is the next logical correct choice for conservatives but you won't be able to tell by surfing the FR. There are alot of religious types here that won't vote for a Mormon and most won't admit it. Just wonder over to the religious threads sometime. You'll notice there are daily Mormon bashing threads.
One thing to realize is that McCain pulled in far fewer votes in So. Carolina this time. He got 42% of the vote in the 2000 So. Carolina primary and only 33% in this primary. I think this is a pretty telling statistic.
Because switching sides to join the British side would have not made him a traitor?? LOL Great logic.
What Republican candidate? In what ways is McLame a Republican? If he’s a Republican than I’m not.
And yet he still won. Funny how that works, huh?
I don’t think Romney can win. The daily kos folks urged their members to vote for Romney in Michigan and Florida because he is the most vulnerable to them.
Also something not being mentioned here is there is a lot of anti-Mormon bias in the south. A lot of evangelicals have been taught that Mormonism is a cult and won’t vote for Mitt. He would go down in flames in the general. Sorry to say but it’s true.
I agree completely with this analysis. I have some issue (as we all do) with each of the other candidates, but...
McCain is the pill that will poison the GOP for decades to come, perhaps taking things to an onrecoverable place.
Fred is my first choice by far, but this is not going to happen. McCain simply can NOT be allowed to waltz into the Presidency as the annointed global elitist Manchurian man.
I understand completely why that camp of the GOP & the MSM wanat McCain. What baffles me is how so many voters have been so easily convinced to vote for that pig in the primary contests to date. Apparently that SouthPark line is right, "1/4 of the country if F'n retarded"
Stop this McCain coronation at all costs or you have lost your party for the forseeable future.
And just whom would McLame appoint? My guess is that his favorite Justice is Empty Souter. McLame is another George H.W.Bush, only farther Left.
I WILL NOT VOTE FOR HIM.
McCain is lacking in economic/administrative experience, moral values, physical and mental health, concern for and appreciation of this country, leadership ability.
Why would McCain want more violent gang members and terrorists in this country?
The true Bush legacy.
BINGO!
If the GOP nominates this globalist slut, I'm out of the GOP for the next couple elections, and possibly permanently.
There are six votes in my household and not one will be cast for McCain should that become the GOP candidate.
Exactly. We now have one party government. The media decides the two candidates and we get a choice between the Left and the farther Left.
IT IS NOW TIME FOR A THIRD PARTY!
It would take Rush to get it started but he won’t do it; he’s too comfortable, making too much money.
From "Communist Goals"
I not one to start a panic, but after reading this and seeing where our beloved country is headed, it's starting to make more sense.
