McCain has thrown the election. It is clear now with his choice for Vice President that he has no desire to win in November. Why else would he chose an inexperienced woman, whose only apparent qualification is that she won a beauty pageant in the 1980s? Why else would he refuse to say Barack Hussein Obama’s middle name? Why else would he run an ad praising Obama and congratulating him for winning the nomination?
If McCain had chosen Mitt Romney, a man with real leadership ability, real charisma, and real experience, he might have stood a chance. He could have made up for his lack of energy in confronting his opponent, his useless pandering to liberals, and his refusal to expose Obama’s leftism and inexperience. Instead he trumped inexperience with more inexperience. Obama, for all his far-left socialism, picked a running mate who is perceived as giving the ticket more experience. McCain, in defiance of all logic, undermined his strong suit by selecting a political neophyte who waters down his key advantage over Obama.
Of course, I can hear the calls already. Mike, you should give her a chance, she’s a real conservative. Mike, he’s just doing this because he knows he has to pander to win. Mike, isn’t it great that he picked a woman. Wrong, wrong, wrong. Picking someone because of their sex instead of their ability is the same kind of affirmative action insanity that the Democrats have shoved down our throats. We don’t want a panderer, we want a president. If he had chosen a woman who was a real nationalist with a real resume, I would have said, “Right on, John.” But McCain has dropped the ball, thrown in the towel, and raised the white flag. And a generation of Americans will pay for his

Weiner like his San Francisco cohort Barbara Boxer are running scared about Gov. Palin. Weiner(savage) has always been a democrat plant, to make real conservatives look bad.
I listened to his show that day, and to be fair, that is not what he said.
That being said:
I disagree with the man 95% of the time, today is no exception. He is so wrong about Palin. Because I was dreading the vote, but know I will go to the polls with a grin on my face and gladly vote for McCain Palin.
Barr? Savage? Who are you talking about?
Nope, sorry i dont feel that way. Majority rules, and right now the majority of FR wants John McCain, liberal agenda as President and liberal, bipartisan voting record and advisors to the contrary, because the sentiment is Republican Party-First, so I am just saying, “officialize it”. If people are going to drop their independent conservatism, then the site that represents their thoughts should be in line and not a contradiction, and in that sense it only logically follows that we become an established adjunct of the Republican Party to fight the big bad evil wolf of Obama. They will even fund us, heck. WE MUST BE HONEST ABOUT WHERE WE ARE HEADING.
You had me going there, Tokyo. ;-)
I like to see Mark Levin and Mike Savage go toe to toe.... we all know who would win the argument....
mental illness?
Does any radio station still carry this jerk’s show? It’s unbearable to listen to.
I wish some mayor in my town would at least try to cut property taxes by 60%. She actually did it.
Some are around badmouthing Gov. Palin.
Weiner is a weiner.
Absolute worst political analysis ever. Stick to suing CAIR turd for brains.
Palin is a great pick. She energizes the conservative base and steals a good number of Hillary supporters as well as moderate and independenct women.
When you factor in the blue collar small town and rural dissafection with radical liberal Obama, I see this election shading to McCain as the favorite now. I mean cmon, I live in a small town of 22k and I’m telling you guys are going to love this hunter/fisher,moose burger eating real conservative woman.
Not sure where to send the money yet.
Going to RNC maybe, later to find out.
I’m uneasy about her too. You need a VP ready to step in from day one and i’m not sure she has the experience to allow her to run the country if something happens to John McCain. She is very green and has a very flimsy resume for a world leader. As for Savage, I agree that he is a jerk and a loud mouth.
Savage may be a rich idiot, but he is still an idiot.
Savage just doesn’t get it and that is a shame because we could sure use his support.
