The discussion on this thread is merely more evidence that the do-nothing “popular vote” for President needs to be eliminated.
Don’t tell me, let me guess: another McCain supporter?
He would do the same thing to the Supreme Court as McCain.
Actually, I believe McCain's conservative voting record is more like 85%.
I think what you are missing is that many of us believe the damage under McCain to be the same or worse.
It’s “all or nothing” “conservatives” who gave us this miserable Congress in ‘06.
No. The Democrats ran to the RIGHT of the GOP in 2006 but didn’t mean it. That party took “the wrong lesson” and nominated that socialist, telling (lying to) themselves the whole while that the country had “moved left”.
Smeg off. It's a free country.
Absolutely wrong if you go back and look at the exit polling and other post mortem data. Intuitively first: if the 100% Conservatives taking their marbles and going home were to blame, why did so many heroes of that same group go down in flames? It was the Reagan Democrats and other Social Conservatives that saw no difference between the two parties, much like the two head candidates this year, and they voted for the newer or more genuine Liberal.
Wouldn’t it be more correct to say that Obama must lose than McCain must win?
McCain is not and will not be good for America.
85%?? Everyone seems to insist that he and obama are voting twins though!
“McCain’s ACU (American Conservative Union) voting record is conservative and was even more conservative in 2000.”
You just said it yourself. He’s gotten less conservative since 2000.
So far.
President Barack Hussein Obama will change that.
If you are GOP and you still support McCain after he screwed over the GOP time and time again you are no different than a woman who endures cheating and abuse from her man and then defends him and his actions.
Both are sick.
They remind me of that old addage where it's better to be thought of as a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
Did you vote”Throw the Rino’s out” in 2006?
I agree with you.
Thank those that will not participate for the democratic congress. Who is it that you are trying to punish?
Er, because their usual supporters stayed home?
It wasn't just the RINOs that these idiots were protesting. I well recall it was the party and the president they were "teaching" also.
Nice try, but there isn't any doubt these for-sure yay-hoos got us into the mess we now find ourselves.
