McCain’s PAC Tops $1 million

Arizona Sen. John McCain raised more than $1 million during the last six months of 2009 to report the largest filing so far during 2010 election cycle of any political action committee tied to a lawmaker or candidate.

While there are still other politician PAC fundraising reports that may trickle in before the January 31 deadline, McCain is head and shoulders above all other such groups. Click here to learn more!

His PAC, named Country First after his slogan in his 2008 presidential campaign, outraised that of his running mate, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, whose SarahPAC took in $732,000 during the first six months of 2009. She has yet to file her year-end report.

The secret to McCain’s big financial pull appears to be a large number of small donors because more than $670,000 of his federal receipts were not itemized — meaning that they consisted of donations that were below the $200 reporting threshold. McCain’s PAC has taken on a number of causes lately, including a petition to seat fellow Republican Sen.-elect Scott Brown of Massachusetts. McCain himself is getting ready for a primary challenge from former Rep. J.D. Hayworth.

Looks like the old warrior is well stocked with ammunition.

Do us all a favor, Juan...and slink off into the sunset.

Give the cash to a REAL conservative, say, Sarah Palin? *WINK*

[Gaffer]

More than likely funded from Obama Nation....there is method to his madness....McCain is the worst relic from GOP impotence and submission that could be had.

“McCain’s PAC Tops $1 million”

pesos?

[WOBBLY BOB]

Soon to top 20 million illegal amigos.

[DwFry]

Can someone get rid of this guy? I’m all for free speech but I don’t having think our own personal “Ellie Light” is advancing the conversation.

[VicVega]

No Kidding. LOL

[Obadiah]

Yeah, well at one time Scott Brown was collecting a million dollars per day in money bombs, so look out Juan.

[TruthHound]

You're a BAD MAN, John McCain.

I wish you into the corn field!

[WOBBLY BOB]

Whoever comes out of the primary as the conservative candidate will see a RINObomb dropped on Juan McCain.

[Obadiah]

LOL. Billy Mumy. Danger Will Robinson!

This very well could be about amnesty. John McCain is a certified A-1 member of the Council on Foreign Relations.

And the cabal is a very very well networked group, from the local illegal's family in Oaxaca on a celphone to CFR HQ in NYC.

As has become obvious, US law-abiding taxpayers are being circumvented.

The Real John McCain

The second is in a call with Senator Lindsey Graham where McCain said in frustration at the rebuke he was getting,{from rank and file conservative republicans opposed to amnesty} "Listen to these people ... Why would I want to be the leader of a party of such a$$holes?". Graham too called those opposed to amnesty bigots.

[Frantzie]

The POS Juan McCain keeps sending me letters asking me for money. McCain is horrible. He has to go.

[ridesthemiles]

Scott Brown raised a million $$$ a day leading up to his victory in Mass. Not really impressed with $1 million in 6 months. Tells me his support in Arizona is tepid.

Arizona taxpayers owed $1 billion from illegal immigration

http://www.kvoa.com/news/arizona-taxpayers-owed-1-billion-from-illegal-immigration/

The cost of illegal immigration has exhausted the Arizona State Treasury. In order to pay for the federal government’s responsibility of securing our national borders and incarcerating individuals who enter the United States illegally and commit crimes, the state has incurred hundreds of millions of dollars of debt to pay these bills,” said Treasurer Dean Martin.

I wonder how much of Palin’s PAC will be used to help McCain retain his Senate seat.

I predict we will see a new 'McCain-Bot Bug Zapper' thread before we know it.

Free Republic is a conservative website. FR is the home of the *RINO-free America Project*, and our founder Jim Robinson has come out in support of J.D. Hayworth because he recognizes (as any thinking conservative should) that John McCain is NO conservative, is a liberal, 'Rat suckup that stabs REAL conservatives in the back at every opportunity, and it stands to reason that if someone is stupid enough to support McCain KNOWING what is known about that treasonous sonuvabitch, they have no business calling themselves a conservative in any way, shape or form.

I say fire up that Bug Zapper!!!
