So what did you do in 2008?

Write your dog’s name? Vote for Obama? Vote for McCain? Sit it out?

It seems to me the same threats were being launched by the Freep concensus in 2007. Then McCain won the nomination and within 2 months, Freep became the McCain cheerleading ground. No doubt you will be voting for Mitt if he wins the nomination, despite what you say now.

Forget it. I voted for McCain only after many people pleaded with me to do so. I’m done voting for losers. I won’t ever vote for the Huckster or Romney.

WF tells BB:Then McCain won the nomination and within 2 months, Freep became the McCain cheerleading ground.

On what planet?

It became a place of conservatives disgusted with McCain's nomination and perceiving that the only bright side of his getting it, his choice of Palin as VP.

You're re-writing history.
