What about judicial appointments? Is McCain not more likely to appoint judges, who will follow the Constitution? (Not a rhetorical question.)

NO.

If he's elected, MacFart will be a one termer. So, he'll want to establish his legacy right away, which means he'll bypass the republicans and have any potential judicial appointments first vetted by Teddy Kennedy. Afterward, the MSM will purr admiringly about how refreshing it is to finally have a mature, insightful man in The Oval Office willing to work in a bi-partisan fashion to take care of the country's business.

And I am being serious. Look at his history of governance and show me there's evidence that he'd do otherwise.

a lot of the loser's supporters will likely opt for McCain.

i really do not see what is "likely" about this... more like wishful thinking... i guess i must say it again--libs do not vote on principle... they support their own, no matter what... in other words, even though McCain is not very conservative, he would need a D next to his name...

I swear there are some serious naybobs of negatism around here these days.. and needlessly so. Running around scared over the MSM is laughable.. this isn’t 1992 folks and its time to realise it.

And you have way too much faith in the electorate or are thinking of a John MacCain other than the very senior senator from Arizona. It's only a small percentage of us who get our information from more sources than just the MSM.

I’m voting for only senator and congressman, as I can’t condone McCain’s further globalization of America (i.e. amnesty and last week’s speech on American timidity) and his global warming bunk.

Hahahahaha... Sorry but statistics don’t back you up.

Folks know who HillBilly is, and Fauxbama’s pastor has made darn sure middle america knows who he is... these two are toast.. no amount of propoganda will change it.

You can keep thinking that CBS news and the NYT rules the world... but in case you haven’t noticed, they don’t.

Fractious conservatives? I must not be one of those.

Three words for you: "Gang of 14."

Indistinguishable, especially on judges.

Not now, but anyone who's followed politics any length of time, knows how quickly things change.

McCain will win without my vote on these simple premises.

McCain=Scary

The Witch=Scarier

Uncle Jeremiah's Nephew Barry=Scariest

It makes me sad. If we win, we lose.

He's actually playing it smart just sitting back letting those two go at each other.

This is merely the quiet before the storm and McCain is stupidly doing nothing to win or encourage the conservative base.

Once the Democrat candidate is decided the biased MSM will viciously attack McCain to make up for lost time.

If McCain wins with out conservative support, then he can tell conservatives to go to hell and mean it. They will have zero influence in his administration.

Conservatives are so dumb they don't even know how the RINOs do it.

If McCain wins with conservative support, that will be proof positive that being a Rino is a winning option and it will be repeated ad nauseam nationwide.

No Thanks!

Lebanon tested Reagan. He failed. The man was pure conservative gold, but lets not whitewash history.

In General elections RINOS always support all Republicans ... even the conservative ones

That is simply not true. When I called to my GOP HQ in 2002 to volunteer, I was given doorhangers, but told to only focus on campainging for the most left-leaning statewide candidate and to ignore the gubernatorial and controller candidates. (who happened to be the most conservative). The local assemby candidate in '04 refused to come to any GOP event and refused to say whether he would vote for Bush. There are several other incidents I have experienced.

How about this: Lincoln Chafee publicy announced he would not vote for Bush in 2004. In 2006, Bush devoted more time and money to Chafee than any other candidate. I think it's almost the opposite of what you say.

Wish all of this were true, but it seem lying by Hillary, which is when she opens her mouth, and unpatriotism by Obama seems to be acceptable to the public according to the national polls.

"No one risked testing Ronald Reagan".

The Cubans, backed by the Soviets, did just that in Grenada.

Reagan passed the test.

From what I read, it is attributed to Benjamin Disraeli, Mark Twain and many others.

Time for the Dems to go away, and a right-flank maneuver on the GOP by a third party.
