How do you know how most people feel about John McCain's "heroic service"????????

I will sit out before I help McPain with getting into the White House. I dislike him as much as I do Hitlery
To: Gipper08
In case no one has noticed, Newt is running.
He has been scheduling appearances with organizations that can only be identified as skepticle or out-right hostile in the past. He has been wading into the lions den and answering the hard questions and promoting an agenda that most on this board would find very attractive.
If, through this long process, he should find himself at the top of the list of Republican candidates, I could think of no better candidate to be facing a Hillary Clinton.
Frankly, I think he would leave her babbling in the middle of the room while the rest of the crowd moved on.

Read the glowing "letters to the editor" in your local newspaper every time a McCain article is printed...it's evident that the gap between the average Republican's perception of McCain and FR's perception of him is tremendous.

yes, after a disgusting liberal named Carter was in office.

re: He really did that to his first wife? Gads, after getting the nomination, if the MSM still has any clout, they would destroy him.)))
The neocons better understand that there are a lot of conservative GOP women. I believe that a lot of us cannot stand McCain.
As for the MSM, they'll love McCain until he's nominated--then they'll cut him down. His cuddling up with the MSM won't get him a break after the GOP sticks its neck out.
What alarms me is that McCain is the darling of the "intellectual" neocons. Krauthammer adores him. Podhoretz...William Kristol. With the help of Biden, Albright among others, the Intellectuals, allied with McCain, got the Clinton Administration into the Balkan War.

I thought Colorado's governor was an up and coming GOP property but he wimped out on the wooden Indian flap.
To: Gipper08
I would like to suggest that Mike Pence from Indiana is the only candidate who can be "all things to all men" in the Reagan wing of this party. He can't raise the money he needs.

No, for him to say he'll sign up with McCain barring two very unlikely scenarios (runs by Rice or Jeb) is a serious commitment.

We always get in the habit of pulling for people we know at a national level, but more often than not a president is elected from with governorship experience.If it's a choice between two senators, a senator will win.

At least, when the *&% about McCain and his first wife finally hits the fan, do a focus group study on conservative women and their opinions of Mr. Noble. Keep in mind that women don't tend to keel over in a swoon over war records the way neocon men do.
I think it's a chickenhawk thing. Many men feel guilty for not serving, then think they're supposed to support the POW just because.

I would have said the same thing about the Dems and Kerry. What we have here is a weak field.

The White House has sent word that Jeb Bush should be taken at his word, that he will not run. While Jeb has taken himself out of the 08 race, the Bush family will seek to retain power with their newly adopted son and convert to Republican party, William Jefferson Clinton-Bush as the Republican candidate.

He won't get through the primary. GOP voters are faced in the first weeks of 2008 with Her Majesty having already beaten her Democrap opponents to a pulp, making the primaries a mere formality, and these GOP voters focus narrowly on who can beat her and are aided with polls showing McCain as the strongest challenger. The result will be McCain. They will be scared sh!tless with the realization that she who must not be named would basicly be in a 50:50 position to win the WH, just by being the Dem nominee.
