U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., said Tuesday he is definitely running for reelection in 2010 and has begun using criticism of the $838 billion federal economic stimulus plan as a platform to raise money.

McCain, 72, had given indications of a run for fifth term, but publicly told supporters in a fundraising e-mail Tuesday he is definitely seeking reelection. He also used the opportunity to criticize Democrats over the spending package.

“The economic challenges currently confronting our nation are immense and unfortunately, the Democrats in Congress propose addressing these challenges through increased spending that wastes billions of taxpayers dollars and saddles our children and grandchildren with a staggering debt. Their proposals will not stimulate economic growth or create jobs,” McCain said in the e-mail.

I replied and told whoever to “burn in h#ll. As Michael Savage has said. He’ll lose.

McCain supported the first scam and not won’t support his socialist buds with the newest scam.

I hope voters destroy McCain in 2010.

Worthless socialist that he is.

[Still Thinking]

Oh, so NOW he figures out Obamas ideas aren't any good! Doh! Good work, Sherlock!

Okay, you Arizonians! Get busy and find a real conservative to run against him. This man has done enough damage.
