Just posted the same thing to another post.
I do, except as Ann said he doesn’t have the good qualities Dole had.
Hillary will take the Dem nomination, and McCain will beat her. I wish I could be happy about that, but I’m not really.
Now there’s an original thought.
The answer is, of course, no.
I was too young in ‘96 to follow the election, but I at least liked Bob Dole as a person. John McCain’s personality grates on me.
Bob Dole is at least a very nice, honorable man.
John McCain ain’t no Bob Dole.
Yes without the personality.
Bob Dole is a good man. I’ll never regret my vote for Bob Dole, only that he lost.
Anyone who thinks there is any similarity is a biased idiot.
Dole ran against a popular, incumbent President at a time of peace and prosperity and made a decent showing.
The current situation is nothing like that.
BUCK UP YOU SORELOSERS! MCCAIN IS GONNA WIPE THE FLOOR WITH THE BEAST! OR THE MUSLIM!
Yep, just as the Clintons and MSM wanted. They rushed through these primaries trying to push out candidates at every turn. After just a few weeks and with less than 10% of the delegates assigned everyone has dropped out but basically two candidates (Huck is still in there technically, along with Paul).
Now, it is set up so Hillary can easily trounce an old has been Senator just as they did in 1996. One of HRC’s biggest problems was being a Senator, as Senators are never elected to the White House. Well, now there is no choice. One has to be, and you can place money that it will be her.
Whether Mccain or Hillary win, one things for certain, conservatives will lose. I think the best bet for conservatives at this point is concentrate on getting conservatives elected to the senate and the house this election to limit the damage a Mccain/Hillary will do.
Bump for later.
Do you think he could defeat Hillary?
Willard would be LBJ with an R by his name!
Dole ran against the formidable, charismatic Bill.
McCain will run against the === well, you saw her last night. The sourpuss.
Sure. And Mitt Romney is our John Kerry. Whoop-tee-doo.
I think McCain will pick Crist as his VP—as he needs someone younger (but then again, who isn’t?). I’d like to see Hunter as the VP, though—that way if McCain loses,,,,it will give Hunter lots and lots of PUBLIC EXPOSURE—and set him up as a front-runner for 2012.
Sadly, it’s looking that way. Looks like I’ll vote for Mitt next week — hopefully he can pull off a major upset.
If Hillary takes the nomination, I believe McCain will win (I think that’s what the polls are saying too.)
Is that a good thing...no...but know McCain would be better than Hillary when it comes to fighting the WOT and supporting our troops.
Yes!
