McCain doesn’t WANT to listen to us

Have you noticed what we sound like?

He loves Reagan.

Maybe he will listen to conservatives if they acted more like Reagan and John Roberts instead of Ann Coulter and Robert Bork. It is these “new” conservatives that are alienating most Americans.

“I just suspended my participation in the Republican Party.”

We have been for quite a while.

We’re very sorry, if Karl Rove, is right on Mitt.

Dirty politics by the McCain camp - through changing their vote for the Huckster to deny Mitt a win when the McCain was tanking ... that’s dirty. It goes to show that these non conservatives are as DIRTY as Demoncrats. It didn’t use to be that way ... .

We’ll be sitting home if Mitt with drawls.

OK, so now we are left with the Rockefeller Foundation Huckabee or the Soros Puppet McCain.

We now have two men searching for riches and power. One (McCain) had to marry it and the other it still sucking off the men behind the curtain. The self made gentleman who made his own money has just left stage. Be careful what you wish for.

Listening is a 2 way street.... you will never get the ear of someone when you are out there spewing insanely over the top ridiculous rhetoric about them.

Agreed. There's plenty not to like about McCain, but much of the current anti-McCain hyperbole is based on personal pique and copycat piling on, not serious and sober reflection.

So we've arrived at the rhetorical point on FR where McCain is a nasty socialist traitor and Fred Thompson, McCain's soulmate in the Senate and co-sponsor of the campaign censorship bill, belongs on Mount Rushmore.

I’m a Huckabee supporter, and I think that this is great news. The majority of the anti-McCain GOP primary voters will vote for Huckabee, and Huckabee has a better chance of winning the nomination.

McCain for President!

I was planning to vote for McCain in the general if he won the nomination. After what he pulled in WVa, however, I'll be voting third party or not at all.

He sounds like the Weapons officer on my ship - but I’ll still vote for him, McCain that is ...

in case you haven’t noticed, we true Conservatives have been inored for years.. This is merely the final impetus to leave the RINO’s and form our own party.

Does anyone think he might drop the R and run as an I ?
I hope he does not cut a deal with anyone...he has been slimed..while none are perfect he has been the most dignified throughout.

I can hold my nose and vote if I have to, but how do you keep from throwing up?

It's going to take a pair of vise grip pliers to hold my nose tight enough to keep out the stench....I'm not sure that'd be enough.

Maybe if we did a labotomy to kill our sense of smell we could make ourselves vote for McCain. I'd probably have to start sucking c**ks for a living, just to get my self respect back.

So, you believe you are unable to get a canidate past the primary process in the Republican party, but you will be effective as an independent party?

I suggest you read the last sentence of my previous post one more time, because thinking like yours will make it change from an observation to prophetic.

The self described “very conservative” wing is eating its own at this point, and if it isn’t careful will wind up relegated to irrellevance.

Phil ... I've been a Huckabee supporter, too, since Fred dropped out ... but Huckabee (like Mitt) has no realistic shot at the nomination now. There just aren't enough delegates left on the table.
