McCain was on such a roll until this was brought up about the GOP platform.

Oh Lord! Does this mean he’s going to ramble on about this nonsense?

This is why he needs to surround himself with more people very different from himself in his cabinet. Palin is a great start but I want him outnumbered.

One of the many reasons McCain will never get my vote.

This is why Palin is so important to this ticket.
Middle of the road...democrat light never wins elections for republicans.
Thank God, when McCain wins he’ll only be four years. No way he’ll win again at 76 years old.
To: Rufus2007
At the end of the day it’s still McCain. It’s who he is.
Amnesty, Cap and Trade, Global warming, Billions to Africa for Aids, etc..

you can believe in AGW and still be against cap and trade or a carbon tax. I’m for more nuclear power and lower taxes (no, not skewed tax credits) and the free market will lead to new technologies. The solution to any problem (assuming AGW is real and a problem) must come naturally and not forced.

Don't buy it. When was the last time the GOP tossed their own sitting president overboard in favor of a new candidate?

Global Warming? Nope, it is an Algore faux crisis.
Global Cooling? Maybe. Sunspots are down and indicates a natural period of slight cooling? Climate Change? Mmmm just right. No matter what is wrong (warming or cooling) it's all our fault. We gotta do something to protect our phony-baloney jobs! Hurumph, hurumph, hurumph!

I'm not surprised at all. This was from the NH primary time frame.
I expect him to stick a few knives in our back but Obama would be worse. That's why I'm voting for John McCain.

“McCAIN has a strong belief...”
Sorry JOHN but it is not a matter of “belief” but of science and truth!
And there are many doubdts about global warming and its causes

The same human economic activity that has brought freedom and opportunity to billions has also increased the amount of carbon in the atmosphere. While the scope and longterm consequences of this are the subject of ongoing scientific research, common sense dictates that the United States should take measured and reasonable steps today to reduce any impact on the environment, the platform states. At least they've left themselves some room to later argue that "measured and reasonable steps" do not include any "cap and trade" system or other mandatory reductions in carbon dioxide emissions.

It’s always possible that he’ll lend an ear to his new VP- maybe she can clear some of the cobwebs of PC out of his brain.
Climate change my . . .
