Being asked to vote for McStain is like being asked to pick up a turd by the clean end.

Outstanding!

And I agree on passing up the opportunity to essentially RUIN the Republican party with a liberal nutcase RINO at the helm.

Agreed, although McCain is hardly a saint.

So, why so many republicans support McCain for President? Why?

Perhaps because they are...

1. Idiots

2. Ignorant

3. Uninformed

4. Misinformed 5. Easily influenced. 6. Not ACTUAL "Republicans" (RINOS tend to flock together, witness RINOS rudy and ahnold endorsing a fellow RINO)

7. More interested in a perceived "win", than they are standing up for the principles our nation and our party were founded on.

8. Weak-minded.

9. THINK, because he is a war hero, he should be given a pass on all the other liberal/crazy/nonsensical sh*t he's done in high offic since.

10. Deranged.

11. Dain-bramaged.

12. Dont's take things seriously.

13. Don't realize the gravity of the situation.

14. Don't realize the unintended consequences of a liberal/nucase RINO vote.

I COULD go on....

Republicans are hungering for a thoughtful Republican who knows how to get things done. That is evidenced by McCain's wins in states as diverse as New Hampshire, South Carolina and now Florida, where only registered Republicans could vote.

That's the ticket... McCain: The diveristy candidate!

Or was that adversity?

My principles are not for sale.

Could they give McCain a personality transplant? How about Electronic stability control? How about an implant to generate an electrical shock when the Amnesty thought pops into his head?

"this site is great and every opinion should be shown equal respect."

Sounds like multi-culti moral equivalence blather to me.

Is there evil in the world? Would you call it out? If so, you contradict yourself.

So if you alter that chart accordingly, you’ll find that McCain and Hillary are EXACTLY the same.

No they're not.

I invite you to read-up on Hillary Clinton. Check out my profile page.

Give the man a break. At least he has the courage to post an alternate point of view, engage in debate, and he’s not obnoxious.

I repeat: this site is great and every opinion should be shown equal respect

You are correct in your thinking, but all little children scrabble from time to time within a family. I think they even use the word "shuddup" to each other a lot and put their hands over their ears.

As I have said when posting I have no dog in this race yet, but I am leaning...leaning is not endorsing.

I will say I went to the caucus in Maine, and was impressed by Mitt's son, Tagg (37). He stole the show as far as speeches went. You walked away remembering the story of the "red rowboat and the anchor." The other presidential sit-in's repeated the same old rhetoric.

Susan Collins told how MoveOn.org had given Tom Allen(D) close to $400,000 to beat her in Maine. This is a huge amount of money for a guy of his stature. Allen has been carrying MoveOn's water for some time now. She said she was a McCainite, but she thought Mitt would be a good President as well.

A Paul supporter/caucus leader made a point to wear his IMPEACH CHENEY '08 BALLCAP into the auditorium during the speeches to get a table out of a closet to set up for the signatures from his towne. He had it off, however, when standing by his table. I asked the Paul speaker was that the message that was meant to be sent, and he replied I have no control over what a supporter wears..what if I was carrying a lollipop? I said that's a comparison? If so it's a pretty poor one. Then he sheepishly (saying he did not know the person, as I know he saw him, everyone in that area did) looked over at the caucus guy behind the table now set up in the hall.

If anyone ever gets to hear Tagg Romney speak in person, he is very impressive as are the other young supporters that came to help in Romney's campaign. I was very impressed with Tagg Romney. Romney did win Maine, I figured McCain would. Can't say I am disappointed. ;)
