Im all for uniting. The GOP needs to get behind Huckabee. Hes the compromise. We all started at different ends. Hes middle ground. We have given up Hunter, Thompson, and Romney. They have given up only Rudy. Its the establishments move now. Now that's brilliant strategy...brilliant. And it could easily be implemented at the convention under threat of mutiny (to keep a sacred conservative 'silent majority'). Yep, Brilliant. I second the motion.

You say, “If there were enough anti-McCain Republicans to make a difference, McCain wouldnt be the candidate.”
Unfortunately, you are wrong on this. Republicans don’t even have to be anti-McCain to make a difference in the General Election. If there are not enough ENTHUSIASTIC McCain supporters for a huge turn-out, the Hussein Obama voters, who are very enthusiastic, will overwhelm whatever lukewarm support McCain has.
So now, tell me how belittling the conservatives who don’t like McCain now will help turn them into enthusiastic McCain supporters by November?
Sorry, it’s over. Hussein takes this one in a Tidal Wave. McCain won’t even do as well as Bob Dole.

I think McCain needs some “tough love”. Those in charge, US voters need to sometimes bite the bullet in the short run to gain control in the long run. We’ve had too many bad boys doing things their way. The GOP is poorly run and needs a complete housecleaning. It needs a contract with its members, similar to the Contract with America.

McCain’s idea of uniting the party is telling everyone they need to unite behind him. Sell me, or drop out.

You are absolutely right. Huckabee is horrible but with McCain as the only other choice Huckabee IS the compromise. The Kennedy wing of the GOP can suck on that.

Their donations are down by far, far more than that pathetic mcvader propaganda estimate. The rnc is calling me every week... “but you gave so much in 2006”... “yes, but I gave you nothing in 2007”... “but sir you can catch up for 2007 and get current for 2008 for only a one time donation of $1500.00”... “how much do you have me listed as donating in 2008”? “Nothing at all sir”... “ok mam... are you beginning to see a pattern here”?

McCain against Hillary Clinton, McCain wins.
McCain against Obama, it is hard to tell.
That is my opinion.

Im talking about the man and making a point that we had better candidates that were snubbed. Now we are supposed to get in line for who the GOP wants?
Well put! I will not vote for McCain.

Actually, Kennedy was one of the few Presidents whose only public service was as a U.S. Senator. Johnson previously served as VP; Nixon also went from Senator to VP to President. There are very few Presidents who have not served as either: State Governor, Vice President, or Military General or Cabinet Member.
Lincoln was perhaps the least qualified in terms of prior public service. He served one term as a Congressman from Illinois.
Senators rarely win. Unfortunately it seems inevitable this year.
To: jveritas
Well, I will work to see it isn’t McCain against anyone. And if it is, I write in my choice.

You cannot win over Conservatives by calling them names. Even mcvader knows this.

Never under estimate the power of Almighty God! He can give us a candidate that has never been corrupted by any of those offices.

McCains idea of uniting the party is telling everyone they need to unite behind him.I'm going to be a maverick this year and not vote for the RINO Benedict Arnold.
(The chutzpah of McCain to demand party loyalty! I'm still wiping his spit off my face, and he wants a kiss. NOT!)

He said he could see himself not “supporting” the Republicrat candidate... he has inferred that he may not vote for him... but I do not remember him saying so outright.

I did not vote for McCain in the primary, but I wll vote for him in the general election by holding my nose if he is the nominee. I don’t want Hillary or Obama, and there is no way I will waste my vote on a third party candidate who does not have a chance to win
