Previous FR thread: How the Clintons Will Destroy McCain


Lott told reporters the information in the Post story was the same as that given to Republican senators in a closed-door briefing by Vice President Dick Cheney last week.

"Every word that was said in there went right to the newspaper," he said. "We can't keep our mouths shut."

Lott, a former Senate majority leader who was pushed out in 2002, suggested the information was passed along by a senator to a staff member.

He said the investigation Frist and Hastert want may result in an ethics probe of a Senate member.

Controversy over the overseas prison network coincides with a debate on Capitol Hill over a measure, sponsored by Senator John S. McCain, Republican of Arizona, that would prohibit cruel and degrading treatment of terrorism suspects.

Don't listen to McCain's promises of the moment: observe his actions.

This is the man John McCain chose to be his "Hispanic Outreach Director." Hernandez is a verified traitor. Born in Dallas he decided as an adult to become a dual-national Mexican citizen. His last job was serving as Mexican President Vicente Fox's "American Reconquista Director."

Hernandez believes all Mexicans and Mexican-Americans in the USA should become dual citizens and consider themselves Mexicans first, "to the 8th generation."

The "New American Pioneers" proclaimed in his book are the illegal alien invaders he urges to become settlers in the USA.

And this is the man McCain chose for his "Hispanic Outreach Director." In the past week he was asked about this choice, and he said he chose Hernandez because he agrees with his positions.

Yet out of the other side of his mouth he says "He has heard us" and he will "Secure the border first."

Juan Shamnesty McCain is precisely a treacherous liar.

at some point his volcanic temper is going to explode

What would happen if McCain (or ANY presumptive nominee) were to become incapacitated? For example, by a heart attack or stroke?

Note: I am NOT wishing any harm upon the man.

But watching McCain, you can't help but see that (a) he's old (b) he's had health problems and (c) he has an explosive temper. Ergo I think many people, whether they support McCain or not, have this concern.

Our Constitution provides for succession in the event of a president's becoming incapacitated. What would we do in the case of a nominee?

I guess there would have to be a national GOP convention to decide upon a new nominee, with delegates who had already been elected. But what if the presumptive nominee had a stroke before all state primaries had taken place, so that their delegates had not been elected yet?

All of this is hypothetical of course. Just wondering if anyone here knows the answers.

Maybe the real John McCain was replaced by a KGB agent or by a mexican CIA agent when he was a POW in Vietnam.
