Just go back and read on FreeRepublic about how “electable” McCain was. We would have been better off running Ron Paul, Duncan Hunter, or Tom Tancredo. Those guys would actually veto all, or at least the most egregious of, these insane bills coming out of our insane congress if elected. And if they didn’t get elected, we’d be right where we are.
Funny how no one seems to post about how everything is cool because we’re still in Iraq(at least for now) and Afghanistan and probably going to go into Pakistan. Funny how the external projections of force aren’t the most important thing when you have a communist tyrant sitting on the cherry blossom throne. Where are all those “Iraq Uber Alles” posters these days?
I agree 100% with you.
I think what we need is to take a page fom the socialist handbook. They knew that they could never be elected under the socialist banner so they joined the democratic party.
We need to get people like Paul run under the republican ticket. They can’t get elected as third parties or libertarians.
(though I still like Fred Thompson a lot, call me crazy)
