We need one page of these that are fronts and, one page of these for the backs, that we can print and cut, to fill the prepaid envelopes from the RNC and the ACU.

There will be a price to pay for supporting McCain.

We can vote conservative on Senate and House primary seats, and vote for anyone other than McCain one the Presidential seat, including a democrat in the general election.

A good speech. The people watching here were very distracting, though. It looked like they all needed a potty break they were swaying back and forth so much.

I just listened to her. She did not back down on her criticism of McCain.

What was with all that head bobing, swaying back and forth moving a few inches and back who are those overgrown bodies?

The all needed to be up front and than never paid attention were they trying to annoy those who came to hear?

I did spin time watch that man’s head that look like it belong on a gorilla!

So far, McCain is following the Nixon playbook to the letter. The difference between 1972 and 2008 is that conservatism went from a far-out radical fringe of the GOP to the majority, and then it showed it worked and was best, and now, many people having forgotten the lessons of conservatism, it is becoming a minority of the GOP yet again.

Back then, they might have been excused for rejecting an untried political theory. Now, there is no excuse.

John Milhouse McCain. Sounds about right.

I’m not a McCain hater. But here’s rational “liberal” Mickey Kaus’ take on McCain’s CPAC speech. Although he’s teased for being a friend of Coulter, tell me if he (and she) doesn’t have a point.

Some grounds for skepticism about McCain’s CPAC Suckup:

1) He pledges to appoint “judges of the character and quality of Justices Roberts and Alito.” [E.A.] “Character and quality”? What about legal ideology? John Paul Stevens arguably has the “character and quality” of Roberts and Alito. He’s just a legal liberal. Is there any chance that McCain will appoint someone who would curtail campaign finance reform on First Amendment grounds?

2) McCain said that “only after we achieved widespread consensus that our borders are secure” would he pursue the semi-amnesty part of his immigration reform. This non-trivial concession would be more reassuring if proponents of that reform didn’t righteously claim a ‘widespread consensus’ in its favor in 2006 and 2007. ( “[A]national consensus has formed around what the president calls ‘comprehensive’ immigration reform.”—Fred Barnes, May, 2006.)

3) McCain said he had “respect” for opponents of his immigration plan (which he didn’t renounce) “for I know that the vast majority of critics to the bill based their opposition in a principled defense of the rule of law.” Not like those others who base their opposition on bigoted yahoo nativism! McCain’s semi-conciliatory words aren’t what you say when you really respect your opposition—then you say “I know we have honest disagreements.” Not “I know most of you aren’t really racists.” Even his suckup betrayed how he really feels. Which I suspect is sneering contempt! (See his former campaign manager and informal adviser Mike Murphy, who—writing under cover of a pseudonym—likened Tom Tancredo to the “Bund”!). ....

I just don’t know if I can reward McCain with my vote for all his backstabbing of conservatives over the past 8 years. I just don’t think he should get the big prize. He’s a liberal democrat at heart and his speech yesterday was a bunch of lies. He basically just said I know we’ve had disagreements, but that’s just too bad and we are going to have more.

The Kaus quote is proof that McCain gives even objective liberals a reason to look askance at his rhetoric, never mind his actions.

If we support McCain now, then MSM and GOP will keep taking us for granted and push other undesirables.

It isn’t just simple disagreements on policy for me, I could handle that.

It is that he WILL work against us, openly and without regard.

And his WILL work with the MSM/Dims, openly and proudly. Which makes me not trust him on Iraq anyway, his supposed one virtue.

McCain MUST suck up all right. I don't believe a word he says. He'll get in the white house and do what he wants.

This brings me back to the wonderful days of my childhood and youth when Republicans like Nixon and Ford were running, and I hadn't yet experienced a good president. McCain is the first Republican president about whom I am not at all enthused and for whom I will have to struggle to vote.
