Only if illegals were voting, John.
McCain will dig the final few inches in the graveyard, and toss our America in for the burial.
How’s the fundraising going, Juan?
This is why I plan to vote for Hillary.
At least we can unite to oppose her.
McCain will do this on immigration, and appoint Ruth Bader Ginsberg II and Ruth Bader Ginsberg III for the bench.
I know. I had almost decided I’d go ahead and wear a breathing mask, and vote for this jerk. Then he says this. Honestly, I just can’t say what I’m going to do on election day. I might just stay home.
Spector. Now there's the one I would have expected to get busted in some bizarre sex/call girl thing. That guy is just so sleazy and nasty looking.
To Any McCainiacs: Once again, very slowly this time, tell us all why we should vote for the Senator next November.
Its pretty bad when “our” candidate’s best chance is to hide in a cave or outright lie.
This should be easy to prove. Find me a candidate who won with anti-illegal rhetoric? Surely neither Tancredo or Romney. Surely not that US Representative from Arizona who lost in 2006.
At best, this issue may be enough to defeat a candidate in a primary but not enough to win in a general election. The problem is those with a degree or training more than college are inclined to be statistically more prone to support tolerance on this and other issues.
Whether they are right or wrong in this view makes little difference. The bottom line is it does make a difference in voter preference. Not the only issue, but a key issue determining a general approach to governance.
I made the comment today that McCain had had a successful couple of days...because he had kept his mouth shut...so much for that.
Laws are just plain inconvenient, unfashionable, and so very un-expedient to Fascists.
Jonah Goldberg may just get enough material out of
John McCain in the coming years to write a sequel to his “Liberal Fascism” book.
It didn't help that George W. Bush was also a big cheerleader for amnesty.
Of course, once safely elected, Bob Casey Jr. has done exactly as his handlers have told him to do. Including, voting down an amnesty exclusion for gang bangers, criminals and terrorists.
Here are the Senators who voted against the Cornyn amendment , which would have established a permanent bar for gang members, terrorists, and other criminals looking to snag a shamnesty visa. Republicans underlined:
We lost a real asset in Rick Santorum. He wasn't perfect, but he sure was in the best third of the senate. Casey the mime isn't even close.
“...the political practicalities of this issue.
That’s the problem with most if not all politicians...they worship at the alter of POLITICAL PRACTICALITIES instead of doing what’s right for the United States of America.
Attaining, and holding on to, power is their goal...the rest of us be damned.
YES !
This deserves a BTTT.
“Find me a candidate who won with anti-illegal rhetoric?”
Heath Shuler
I would hope that many of our Republican candidates would understand the political practicalities of this issue.
McCain would NEVER just enforce the law because it is the right thing to do now would he?
What the hell happened to Kyl? I thought he was one of the good guys? I expect these other clowns to be dirtbags.
