The Republican establishment last time brought us McCain, the WORST CANDIDATE EVER. A guy who previously had made overtures to jump to the other side, ran no campaign, and basically gave the election to Obama.
I remember being repeatedly vilified by posters on FR for saying the guy was a turd, a phony and a traitor to the cause and I would never vote for him. I was proven right, in spades.
I hope maybe this time the message may be sinking in, that some of these folks being put forward are just whores and shills, and will just work to keep The Party Going for the special interests that are raping and pillaging our country.
The only reason I vote the McCain/Palin ticket was Palin. Never again. Been there, done that, wouldn’t be prudent.
