JOHN MCCAIN VS. HILLARY CLINTON.
HILLARY WINS......

Reagan lost the GOP nomination to Ford in 1976, that’s how the nation got Jimmy Carter as POTUS.
If Romney loses, expect the Dems to win.
McCain lied last night (Novak article re this appeared today) regarding his statements on Justice Alito.
Judge Robert Bork, btw, has endorsed Romney.
Q: What to do about McCain?
A: Vote to elect as many true conservative Republicans as possible to the House and Senate in November in order to thwart everything McCain wants to accomplish!
Unbelievable. We are going to have to elect a veto-proof Republican majority in order to stop a Republican President.

If McCain is the nominee, I plan on voting a straight Constitution Party ticket.

Considering how chummy McCain is with the lefties (including Her Thighness), I have serious doubts about him battling Hillary during presidential debates and on the campaign trail. Personally, I think that he would behave like a whipped puppy in her presence.

bigot.
Here is a variation on your plan. If you’re not a McCain supporter, and if you live in a state where McCain is heavily favored to win that primary, vote down ballot from president. If enough people do this, the GOP hierarchy might see that the degree of undervoting shows the train wreck ahead. I believe the party hierarchy is largely responsible for the McCain surge. It is his turn, as it was Bob Dole’s turn in 1996. Most receently we saw this at work in the last minute endorsement by FL governor Crist. With this endorsement he delivered his organization to McCain to help deliver a victory to McCain.
Or remember half of what he spouts.
Spoken like a true bigot. What makes you believe that Mormons need you to legitimize their religion? As a Catholic, I'll vote for Mitt, and it has nothing to do with religion.
I am not a Mormon, but I hold no animus toward Mormons. I have known many of them as friends and colleagues.
That's one of the stupidest things I've seen here in quite a while. It's about running and leading the country not his particular religion. I'm not a big Romney fan but he is twice the man that the Huckster is.
So you’ll vote for Hillary before you vote for Romney just because he’s a Mormon?
You’re too young to be here. Come back when you grow up.
I would also like to believe that. But from soccer moms, to greedy elderly soc sec suckers, to teachers to unions to etc etc...I see America cuddling up to anti-gun socialism.
You may be correct in your assumption. I think conservatives are simply not voting in the primaries because there has not been a viable conservative candidate running. I don't know about FL yesterday, but all of the prior primary states have had a smaller Republican turnout than in previous years. Only on the Democrat side has there been a BIG increase in voter turnout.
I'm giving some thought to this proposition: McCain will cooperate with Democrats and pass their agenda anyway, as he always has. So whether it's McCain, Hillary or Obama, the result will be the same.
But only with McCain in the White House would the inevitable unconstitutional, anti-American, subversive government bear the Republican name.
If McCain is the nominee--I hate to even consider it--I will probably vote third-party or write-in and let the Dems have the White House. At least that way, it will be clear who made the mess. There will be no way to blame Republicans for the disaster.
EEEEEEEEEEEEEK
Well, frankly, I don’t think people bother alot...they just hear sound bites about candidates.
That is what is frightening.
The ignorance that abounds.
I won’t vote for him. I’ve been a good Pubbiebot for years, dutifully taking my clothespin to the polls to vote for Bush I, twice, Bob Dole, and Bush II, twice. Now they’re offering me McCain, and telling me to vote for him because if I don’t, the big bad Dem will win, and besides, I have no place else to go.
The arrogance is breathtaking, and I, for one, will not be a slave to the Republican plantation anymore. If I hold my nose and vote for McCain, I’m no better than the blacks who never step off the Dem plantation no matter how much they’re taken for granted.
If we conservatives vote for McCain, the Party will keep moving to the left. After eight years of McCain, maybe we can elect Chuck Hagel or Olympia Snowe! Hey, maybe Ted Kennedy will change parties and we can all race out to vote for him so that the big, bad, evil Dem doesn’t win. After all, he’s got name recognition!
I will stand on principle instead of acting out of fear. No more. Enough is enough. If the Party wants to elect the likes of John McCain, they will have to do it without my vote.
> Although McCain is not a staunch supporter of the constitution, he doesn’t spit on it <
Yeah, McCain-Feingold wasn’t an act of “spitting” on the Constitution. It was more like “s*itting” on it — with the asterisk standing in for the letter “h.”
