And like the Coyote, McStain ultimately is a LOSER:
McCain’s a crafty son of a gun. He picks Sarah for VP, so now she’s beholden and he’s calling in that chip. When it started looking like Scott Brown might win in MA, McCain latched onto Scott, and supported him verbally, while “mentoring” Scott the newbie, in the Senate. Took Brown under his wing, so to speak, in a fatherly way, of course, so that now Scott Brown owes him too and McCain calls in another chip.
Now Mitt Romney. McCain won’t be running for Prez again (unless he is totally demented, which he is....), so McCain will be throwing his support behind some candidate who will be running. That will come down to Palin or Romney, and I know McCain doesn’t want to support Palin. My gut tells me so. So, McCain will play both of them along, extract his pound of flesh from both of them to campaign for him in AZ, not show his hand until the last minute as to who he will be supporting for Prez, and if either of the two of them don’t toe the mark and support him in his AZ race, he will go after them viciously when they run for Prez, and both of them know it. McCain is a below the belt street fighter when it comes to politics and paybacks in particular. Neither Palin nor Romney want to be on his bad side. Thus another chip being called in.
Got to admire the Wiley Coyote side of McCain, he is one devious politician. And I fervently hope, for all the above blackmail reasons, that McCain gets his proverbial *ss kicked and loses bigtime in AZ to J.D. Hayworth. but Hayworth has a big mountain to climb. McCain has all the money, all the aristocracy of AZ in his political back pocket, and he has already started to fight Hayworth dirty. It will get worse. It it truly David against Goliath, even though McCain phyically is the little squirt and J.D. the big guy. I never underestimate McCain. The good news is J.D. has the tea party behind him, and he speaks exceedingly well, and because of his radio program, and his prior political service, he is not an unknown. Go J.D.! I don’t want to see McCain’s mug on TV (he’s such a media whore) anymore.
It’s fascinating that McCain will fight like a cornered hyena against his fellow Republican, but ran a powder puff campaign against Nilbama. Imagine if Juan ran like this vs Obie. He might be prez right now. Not an ideal circumstance, but light years better than what we have.
