Live McCain Speech at CPAC

[mombonn]

I though I heard him imply that if you don’t support me, thanks for hearing me out, but kiss my a$$.

Yup. I just hit the mute button. I can't take any more.

I'd sooner have obama in my living room for the next 4 years than him.

[TornadoAlley3]

He knew he could not run the table. Not surprising to me.

[MrPiper]

Will CPAC report on busing in supporters?

[auto power]

Doesn’t sound like many people are there...is anyone counting the “I’s” that McCain is spouting???? He’s not speaking well at all. He sounds garbled.

[mcshot]

Now that is chilling. They’ll have to plant me and my friends and neighbors first.

[Williams]

Let's listen to this guy, he is enumerating all te things he differs with the democrats on. I didn't know he opposed the Bush prescription drug benefit.

Everything he is listing, and it's a lot, is the exact opposite of Hilary/Obama. Sometimes the opposite of Bush as well.

“On another thread, Trueblackman gave a first hand account, and said that McCain had bussed in a large crowd of young people who were working the crowd to gin up support for McCain. He said he assumed they would also fill the hall when McCain spoke.”

That’s a standard Hillary trick.

[milford421]

Yep...basically told conservatives to shove it. Vote for me or get a Democrat.

I can’t stand this guy...I really can’t stand him.

[BubbaBasher]

He’s cherry-picking a few conservative bills that he voted for.

[TCats]

Ahhh! Immigration. Lot’s of Booooooos!

[SpaceBar]

Boos.

[Repeal 16-17]

As soon as he said “immigration” booing commenced. That was followed by applause.

[publana]

Finally some boos! Immigration.

[Moose4]

Allen’s part of the establishment, always has been. That doesn’t mean that he’s still not solidly conservative. I supported him over Jim “Born Idiot” Webb in Virginia in ‘06 and hated to see him get undone by Larry Sabato and the MSM dragging “macaca” out every five minutes to club him over the head with.

The establishment Republicans are now going to line up behind the front-running candidate—they always do in this situation. The problem is, McCain should never have gotten to this point AS the front-running candidate. A combination of open primaries allowing liberals to vote, and a conservative vote that got fractured many different directions, got us here.

[BubbaBasher]

BOOOS! There are booos when he mentioned illeagle immigration!!!!

[whatisthetruth]

AS usual another all-inspiring speech from McDole-redux.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

[postban]

I see people asking "Who is voting for him" and "Who is applauding him". I think the answer is........ Democrats

[SpaceBar]

This ahole will never get my vote. Period.

[MNJohnnie]

Doubt it. I mean, not like there is any rule or law against hims having people come see him. Just the sort of sleazy DC based political tactics common to our Clintonized political class.
