The GOP is going to schism. The old guard does not want to give up power, and the Tea party won’t play along.

John McCain, who you may recall was the GOP’s 2008 standard bearer

Well that's a bit of a stretch. If it wasn't for Rats and Independents voting in our primaries he wouldn't have been "standard bearer". RNC you better fix that quick or suffer the consequences.

McCain's the last "Republican" I ever thought I'd vote for president, but we collectively held our noses and did. And the jackass still lost!

McCain, for a man who fought so hard for his country, you sure do abandon it quickly.

This should be the straw that breaks the camels back on McCain. We should all be actively supporting his primary challengers. We need to retire him for the sake of the country.

McCain may have fought hard for his country but he's as reckless and feckless now as he was back then.

By his own admission he lost 5 planes into Corpus Christi Bay and there's still reason to believe he caused the fire on The USS Forrestal that killed 100 of his shipmates and ultimately resulted in his being transferred to another ship much to the delight of the crew on The Forrestal and the chagrin of the crew on his new ship.

Sorry for the double-post. I blame Bush.

This certainly should be “it” - John McCain refers to “conservatives” as his opponents, his opposites, his enemies.

He’s identified himself.

He’s identified himself.

Until the next election cycle. Then he will re-identify himself and assure everyone that he is as Conservative as they come.

He might even get away with it too.

Now you see the real McCain.

Is there any doubt now that he is the sort of man who would secretly kiss commie rear in the Hanoi Hilton?

I tried to tell you folks back when he was in the primary for president and I got zotted.

McCain isn’t even a RINO anymore. He’s a democrat mole.

And THIS was the best that the GOP could muster in 2008.

Pretty much says everything about the Old Party of Goners.

Truly, you do not remember that he won the first few primaries because so many Democrats crossed over and voted in the Pubbie primary because the state had open primaries? Why has this not yet been fixed by the RNC? Could that be a reason why I have not given one red cent to them since 2006? You betcha.

After listening to this dumbs**t for the last couple of days, I really would LOVE to revisit 2008 and listen to what those FReepers that were excoriating us for refusing to vote for this bastard have to say now.

This is what you get from liberals. Except for Palin I would have voted 3rd party in 08. When the establishment liberals of the GOP trot out Romney and demand we support them or the boogie man obama will get us all I can say is tough.

I will not vote for yet another liberal and Romney is a John McCain back stabbing, statist liberal to the core. If we get obama another 4 yrs so be it, at least we can get this liberal virus out of the countries system and attempt to rebuild it when these parasite are finally shown for what they are.

Finally? Juan has been jumping that shark since 1999. He has NEVER been a "conservative" of any stripe. He's a "finger in the wind"/"reach across the isle" Quisling.

And that's being nice to him because he's a Vet.

McCain has confirmed what everyone knew during the 2008 campaign: he’s Obama Light.
