McCain says GOP will lay out 10-point election platform
The Hill, Washington, DC ^ | 2010-02-16 | Michael O'Brien

Senate Republicans will lay out a 10-point election year agenda later this spring, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) suggested Tuesday.

McCain said that the GOP would craft a list of 10 legislative pledges which they would seek to enact within the first 60 days of taking back control of Congress, if they were to do so in this fall's elections.

"We Republicans have to provide -- and we will later this spring -- a positive vision with what we want to do for the country," McCain said during an interview on KFYI radio in Arizona.

Go away, McCain.

We already know what your vision for the United States is, since it's being enacted by the man whom you said "we have nothing to fear from" as President.

I wonder if any Democrat is waking up to the fact that with McCain as President and the present Congress, most of their agenda would already be signed into law?

Unless about 8 of them have to do with developing vertebrae and getting rid of RINOs, I’m not interested.

I don’t mind a new contract with America as long as incumbents are not part of it.

Why is John McCain and NOT J.D. Hayworth laying this out?

Because the RNC is trying to save that fossilized, treachorous, son-of-a-bitch!

“We Republicans....”

WE? Forget it RHINO....WE want nothing to do with your PROGRESSIVE agenda and if the GOP continues to support people like YOU, the GOP can shove it.

Because McCain’s last “strategery” worked so well.

“what we want to do for the country”? How about what the people want you to do for the country? They still don’t get it. The Tea Party should give them 10 things they HAVE to do to get elected at the Mid-Term, not what they “want” to do.

Palin’s endorsement for McAmnesty doesn’t carry nearly as much weight as Arpaio and Simcox’s endorsement for Hayworth.

McVain needs to be more concerned with the '10 points' that J.D. Hayworth is going to pounce him by!

I, for one, am friggin tired of ‘platforms’. I want men and women who are stalwart in defense of American greatness, morality, liberty and the Founder’s ideals — a Constitution for a representative republic of limited powers. Only proven character counts.

Platforms are meaningless without an honesty and integrity of character to back them up.

If the first point is not to rid the GOP of RINO’s like McInsane, you can forget the other 9 points.
