McCain told of large crowds at protest rallies and town-hall meetings in his home state of Arizona.

"There's something going on out there. And I'd love to sit here and tell you that we Republicans are attracting all of those unhappy people, but we're not."They're out there kind of in the middle and they haven't found a home."

Your assessment is correct. He is hijacking the Tea Parties. It looks to me like he intends to yank the GOP even more to the left.

Hey, Juan, newsflash! Many of us are quite sick of Republican policies, too.

Just go away, Juan. Now.

“The GOP had better repudiate this asshat or it’s over for them.”

Thanks for your military service, John. Now get the hell out of the way.

I POSITIVELY want RINO’s, LIARS (liberals impersonating as Republicans) to be replaced by CONSERVATIVE voting and acting representatives.

John McCain, a/k/a the loose canon rolling around on the deck, speaks.

CNN+MSNBC are calling for this too. Unfortunately ‘positive agenda’ means ‘spend more money we dont have’ as McCain proposed in his campaign.

I am reminded of ‘happy face’ Jack Kemp who preached that we can cut taxes, increase spending and magic economic growth will take care of it all. Add neo-cons and two wars and nation building, all paid for by ‘economic growth’

Idiots!

"McCain says Republicans need positive agenda"

I agree. The most positive agenda I can think of is to purge McCain, Graham, Snowe, Collins (just to name 4) and all the other scum sucking, bottom feeding RINOs OUT of the GOP and re-establish the Party of Reagan based on solid conservative principles.

Conservatives do NOT need to compromise their values and 'move to the middle' to satisfy the weak sisters and sad sack 'moderates' and 'liberals', conservatives need to stay consistent because the 0bamunist thugs and their fascist behavior are pushing those moderates to the right, and we should be standing ready to help them adjust to the political realities that we face.

To paraphrase Margaret Thatcher "this is no time to go wobbly", and conservatives have to stand firm.

Maggie knew “wobbly” when she saw it ;-)

I'm positive that we don't need any advice from McCain.

“Positive” is spin.

“Conservative” is substance.

I say the R’s need a CONSERVATIVE agenda.
