McCain found his strawberries.

The only thing is, turns out they weren't strawberries at all. They were actually huckleberries.

Mac is back I thought the headline said Jack was back!! I was hoping he was out of the hospital and back to selling his burgers. Now I see it's only that dude who brought us Sarah Palin.( well at least he's done something right since he went into politics)

“The only thing is, turns out they weren’t strawberries at all. They were actually huckleberries.”

that would be a lot funnier if it weren’t true. Credit Juan McCain for B. Husseion Obama in the White House. I still gag when I think about the chance he had to turn off this &*^*^ porkulus bill...

Two cheers for John McCain. I appreciate him doing the right thing now.

That he didn’t have the brains or balls to hold the line in October of last year makes me sick to my stomach now.

Way too little, several months too late.

McCain is a bitter opportunistic rat. And like all rats he can smell a dying ship.

Maybe he is jumping off the dem socialistic stim plan ship because he senses the people AND the media are turning ??....time will tell......but it does no harm to watch the rats and observe their behavior and learn

The one thing we do know.....Mccain ain't jumping because of principle!

I’d rather not have him, but we need everything we can get right now.

I wouldn't go that far, "needing everything we can right now" re-elected an bunch of the same 'ole RINOs that are doing everything they can to help to help Obama finish the shoving the U.S. into socialism.

If the GOP (including McCain) grows a pair and actually starts defending the American way, I would be pleasantly surprised... but I'm not holding my breath!

To the extent you either didn't support or, worse yet, undermined McCain during the general election campaign, you can take part of the "credit' for what ensues during the next four years under Obama.

Please don't get carried away rhapsodizing about McCain. He's an attention-seeking contrarian. He delights in alternately elating and depressing liberals and conservatives.

This makes him a constant danger to the Republic as he's amoral, ungrounded and undependable.

Save the tingles in the legs for someone else.

He's milked this foregone losing cause to the max......and gained nothing except publicity for himself.

Oh please, do we have to start listing McCain's great anti-GOP achievements again?, looks like some forgot already!

He's a self-centered "wanna-be moderate" who helped to elect Obama...

If the GOP...grows a pair?

Currently, 98.6% (216 out of 219) House/Senate Republicans are opposing Obama's porkulus bill.

Is that a big enough "pair"?

“To the extent you either didn’t support or, worse yet, undermined McCain during the general election campaign,”

You mean it was US that told him to suspend the campaign and curl up in the fetal position? Read the post again...

[Cedric]

I quote YOU in my response.

Duh.

Yes... and I am completely amazed as is 100% of the GOP and most Conservative Americans!

Couldn't have said it better!

The GOP will demonstrate that they have grown "a pair" when they do something to punish Specter, Snowe, and Collins for their anti-GOP votes and agenda.

“I quote YOU in my response. Duh.”

Duh indeed. You quoted HALF of what I said. You quote according to your wit, I suppose.
