They claim to be staunch Republicans.

To be frank, I have a hard time opposing this Obama nomination.

The real problem isn't the nominee, it's McCain and his attempts to "moderate" when he really needs to quietly plan his retirement.

“I don’t like it,” said McCain, the Arizona senator and Obama’s Republican competitor in the 2008 presidential race. “I think it’s a bit disingenuous to announce strict rules and then nominate someone with a waiver from the rules that you just announced in one of the most important jobs in Washington.”

Zounds! That’s going to leave a mark, my friend. /sarc.

You should join the Clean Sweep movement. All of em. Off with their heads. Time to get rid of the two parties. They are both screwed up.

been beaten up by McCainBots today.

Geez, talk about pathetic losers!
McCain was so worthless as a politician that he could not even beat an unknown chicago leftist black liberal named hussein.

Who in his real mind would want him now? - Besides the kooky leftists, La Raza, and the communists?

I don’t think so, we need to know what went wrong with the Party and who is responsible for watering down Conservative ideals.

This is the same McCain that fought Bush tooth and nail on judges, Gtmo and interrogation techniques. Good to see old John is grabbing his ankles for Obama.

The adults in the GOP need to tell Juan Sydney to RETIRE.

What adults in the GOP?

Sarah could/would do it but she has no support except from the likes of us.

Please, Senator, cross over the aisle and become a Democrat, or resign your seat! You’re not fooling anyone.

I’d like to see someone’s depiction of Sara Palin and her rifle going RINO hunting.

It’s not the nominee as much as it is 0bama’s willingness to break his own ethics rules right out of the gate.

Still, I don’t know if I could oppose this nominee just because the POTUS is a hypocritical fraud whose word means absolutely nothing.

Gibbs is starting to look and act like a deer in the headlights with these answers. And McLame is rolling over for the big O on a daily basis. What a fraud.

I take it that McCain's wife has already added Raytheon stock to her portfolio...

I personally like that idea and feel it would be a step in the right direction ...

People still aren't getting the point, it's almost impossible to have beaten Obama once the media kicked into the "influence the sheep mode".

Absolutely nothing has been done in these almost 3 months now since the election about the media.

Republican's haven't done a single thing ... except to blame each other for the election loss ... (conservatives blame McCain, moderates blame Palin, both sides blame Bush)

Without tackling the problem of the media, we are just going to get beat in the elections again and again ... 2010, 2012, 2014,

The Democratic controlled congress had a lower than 10% approval rating and they were rewarded with more seats. The most liberal ranking senator in congress, is successfully elected to President. This was all because of media cheer leading.

The MSM needs to be defeated, and discredited.
