Gay Republicans Flock To McCain on Giuliani Exit
NY Sun ^ | 1/31/08 | Josh Gerstein

Posted on 02/04/2008 6:45:53 AM PST by pissant

Gay Republicans are in a state of mourning over Mayor Giuliani's exit from the presidential race, but they are moving swiftly into Senator McCain's fold despite concerns that he has not always been faithful to their agenda.

"Giuliani was my man," a political organizer in San Francisco's gay community, Christopher Bowman, said. "I'm heartbroken he will not be the nominee of the party."

A organization that is effectively the party's gay caucus, the Log Cabin Republicans, posted a message at the top of the group's main Web page Wednesday saluting Mr. Giuliani for his bid and his "service to our country."

In the Bay Area, most gay Republicans were in the Giuliani camp, but some took a wait-and-see attitude in recent days, Mr. Bowman said. "When his numbers tanked, a lot of people who were voting absentee decided to hold on to their ballot and see if he'd still be in the race come February. Most of the people had McCain as a second choice," the organizer said.

"Now, a lot of people are getting behind McCain, especially with the endorsement and Giuliani going behind McCain as well," a former president of the New York chapter of the Log Cabin Republicans, Scott Musch, said.

McCain can rest easy knowing he has the San Francisco vote locked up.

Does this mean they are hopping aboard the not-so-Straight Talk Express?

as you keep saying even though it hasn't happened ...

reminds me of:

Liberals believe ...

REPEAT THE LIE, LONG ENOUGH AND LOUD ENOUGH ... AND IT'LL BECOME 'TRUE'.

What is obvious to me is that the Romney campaign is trying to convince everyone that he is the only alternative to McCain (personally I’d rather have McCain than Romney . . . I don’t trust Romney on anything and I trust McCain on the war and on the deficit). Huckabee was my choice and if he can win a few states this Tuesday and the McCain bandwagon goes on tilt we can still hope for a contested convention. Without Huckabee, the Huckabee voters poll (like me) as going more for McCain than Romney. So without Huck . . . McCain just wins outright. Don’t get suckered by Romney campaign antics. He’s got a lot of money to buy internet hacks and the like. Romney has spent more on this campaign than anyone . . . Hillary and Obama included. He’s 35 million in debt in his campaign as of the last figures. That is an awful lot of B.S. that he has bought.

Add this to your post:

Watch McCain show his utter disdain for people from home state when they ask about illegals.

Watch his handler threaten a woman asking about illegals raping children.

Watch McCain stand on stage and say nothing when they tell one of his constituents to "shut up!".

Was it a flocking action or more of a mincing? I’m sure toe-tapping goes without saying. Where’s Larry Craig on the subject?

You think they’d go to Romney. After all, on the Howie Carr
show, Chris Wallace said he had a “man crush” on him:
“He is a very...attractive...guy.” Chris took a lot of
heat for that! (Not that Chris is gay—he just said he
had a “man crush” on him!)

The only problem is Mcinsane will never be elected.

I have watched him for 25 years in AZ. He is pro GAY big time. I met him when a guy was trying to groom me to be a punk (gay sex toy)for republican party.(except I’m not gay) I have a long story on this but lets just say John has no problem being in a room where gay prostitution is taking place.

He has been a carpet bagger from the start and it is no different now.

When the MSM gets their man into the general he will be re cast as unstable, too old, to short hot headed, Just think “Goldwater add” and you will understand.

When McInsane ran ageist Bush in 2000 there was a reporter on McInsanes bus that took video for many weeks. He said that McInsane made all kinds of horrid statements about the press and his opponents. We will get to see them all in the general.

Think of a video with so many bleeps that it looks like a girls gone wild shot!
