Mehlman, Rove boost McCain campaign
Capitol News Company ^ | 03/07/2008 | David Paul Kuhn

Posted on 03/08/2008 6:55:07 AM PST by OnRiver

Rove explained that he and McCain “got to know each other during the 2004 campaign.” In a separate interview, Mehlman noted that “McCain was completely loyal to the president in 2004 and worked incredibly hard to help him get elected.” According to Taylor, “The Bush Republicans here in town are excited for John McCain.”

me too....I voted for Thompson but I like Roves ideas about McCAINS story. When 20% of the population don’t know where the pacific ocean is then it always helps to educate. Where are you located>

No kidding, Sherlock! I am voting for Obama in the primary where my vote WILL count in North Carolina. My mission is to stop Hillary. Period. Now go back to your sandbox and be a good boy.

Today, I officially left the Republican Party and became a registered Independent. ... I have no intentions of returning to the GOP until they return to the conservative principles that once ruled the party.

I've considered doing the same thing, but I think that is exactly what they want. Without voices of dissent, the Rockefeller Pubbies, the "National Greatness conservative" whackjobs and the Log Cabiners can maintain control indefinitely.

Did you see who he has brought in to run Victory 08? (Carly Fiorina and others). This sounds like its gonna be another liberal lovefest at the RNC convention, just like 2004 when they headlined Schwarzenegger, Giuliani, and McCain. This cr@p has to be stopped if there is any hope, as it is already paving the way for the Party in 2012 and beyond.

How does he know that? Has he talked to all four of them?

Hahaha! The way FNC is now, Greta has the most informative show!

But seriously, I used to have Fox on all the time, now I've changed the channel. It doesn't really matter though, because nobody can see any of the shows on Fox due to that blasted scroll at the bottom. It has inched it's way up to taking over half the screen!

OTOH, that might be a good thing...we only have to see the top of Shep's head now! LOLOL

lets see If I have this right...you are going to vote fro Obama to stop Hillary but if Hillary wins you are not going to vote for McCain....NOW THAT IS PURE GENIUS AT WORK.

the 30% of the people on this board who aren't going to vote for McCain are important only if they are in Ohio, Missouri, Virginia, Oregon, Pennsylvania, New Mexico and possibly Wisconsin and Iowa. If they are in Blue states it doesn't matter ...if in real red states it doesn't matter. Your vote doesn't matter. You can't cancel mine because I live in Florida. Educating you people is really a headache

The way to stop it is to run a conservative with a third party. Stop the liberal RINOs dead in their tracks and rebuild the party. Right now, there isn’t enough difference in McCain, Obama or Clinton to convince me to vote for McCain.
It just isn’t going to happen. I cannot bring myself down to that gutter level of politics.
