B/S. McCain is a proven RAT. McCain-Feingold, McCain-Kennedy, McCain-Lieberman, TARP, etc, etc, etc. McCain is single handedly responsible for Obama. The day McCain rushed back to DC to support and promote TARP and the unconstitutional bailouts he handed the presidency over to Obama. He had an opportunity to set himself apart from Bush and Obama by defending the constitution and leading the nation away from TARP, but he betrayed us. He betrayed us, betrayed the GOP, betrayed the constitution and betrayed the nation. He’s a RAT bastard traitor and anyone who supports him after all he’s done is simply a useful idiot.
However McCain's actions did not happen in a vacuum. a majority of people voted FOR Obama not against McCain. I agree McCain by his actions could not close the deal with the voters. You say his failure is a betrayal. I choose to see it as simply a failure. As far as a RAT? McCain is more center left than center right but then when it comes to spending and increasing government budgets so is JD.
Like I said I do not support McCain I support Palin and by attacking Palin over her endorsement people do more to harm the Conservative cause than McCain could ever do. And they are in my book the useful idiots.
How would Mitt, or Huck or Ron Paul advance the conservative agenda in the Whitehouse. Like it or not the chances of a dark horse conservative coming out of the shadows at this time is less and less. We have few very few national conservatives fighting for our agenda. Belittling one because of your hatred for McCain makes no sense. And just fuels the left’s desires.
Like I have said now numerous times now I could care less about McCain or JD both are part of the problem. you can make a case that McCain is a bigger part of the problem and others can make the case that JD is a bigger part of the problem. Both men have votes and a history that tells anyone who is not blinded by hate for one or the other than neither is a shining knight for conservatives.
fighting over McCain vs JD is like fighting over death by hanging or gunshot. Your still screwed no matter which one wins out. It really doesn't matter.
What matters is to keep the ultimate goal in sight and that is to elect the most conservative candidates to positions of power in the GOP and in the government.
