The hell with the RNC establishmentarian mouthpieces.
McCain is a liberal who will run the country into the ground, but, because he has a scarlet “R” next to his name, conservatives will get the blame.
If we are going to be run by liberals then let it be an open Marxist like Hillary or Obama so that leftist policies get credited with destroying the country.
Why vote for McCain when we can run Petraeus in 2012?
Because the Dems will do to Iraq & Afghanistan (and thus to the middle east and central asia), exactly what they did to Viet Nam and southeast asia. Cut, run, and let explode.
Unfortunately, IMO that's what it comes down to. If we lived in a time of peace, I'd agree with you 100%. It would be a no brainer to sit this one out.

I had never thought of that. Petraeus. I like it.
