Sorry, can't get past this.
I love Michael Barone and usually listen to everything he says. However I cannot go along with this McCain business. I do not trust him. I would not trust him. Simple as that.
He can make his case to me in 2008. I'll listen.
He's not as conservative as many Republicans would like, but hey do you want Hilary as President?
"McCain addressed two issues that have the potential to divide the Republican base: spending and immigration."
I don't think the Republican base is divided. I think they all hate him. (And for good reason).
Agreed. The base is not divided, or it wouldn't be the base. We are solidly against careless spending and open borders.
If I am wrong, I better start looking for another party.
And Houston (post Rita), and Baghdad, for that matter!

My vote will be with Senator John McCain for President- 2008!

W killed the Reagan Revolution cause his daddy couldn't.
McCain is pretty well known for NOT putting in pork for his home state or adding things in for any pet projects.
On the other hand, Senator Kyle is well known for trying to bring home the bacon so it does leave McCain free to rail against pork and not look like a hypocrite.
anyone who thinks mccain will win is stuck on stupid, LOL!!
"More Republicans will support him than you think."
I won't.
I do like Michael Barone, especially after he got out of his seat on the Mclauchlin Report on the weekend after 9-11 and almost bitch-slapped Eleanor Clift.
But McCain? I think not.
The media has almost jumped on McCain's band wagnon. Labeling him the renegade republican who led the super moderate 14 senators. If(when)McCain in 2008 shows that he will be the clear Republican nominee going up against Hilary the elite media will switch their views on him faster than it takes 100 mexicans to get into Arizona.
I wouldn't want Ralph Nader either, but Hillary has nothing to do with which Republican would make the best candidate, she isn't even a real viable candidate for POTUS and she will probably get blown out coast to coast in 2008.
McCain? He's insane. There HAS to be someone else! and I don't mean Rudy.
what is so disgusting the MSM keeps trying to say it was the dirty tricks of bush and company; but it was his nasty disposition and belittling comments directed at the christian right
I'd vote for McCain, although I don't like him. I still say Rudy would make a better president.
"Be careful, everyone, the guy has a loose wire"
This has always been my impression. I don't think he can be trusted, his trolley having left the track a while ago.
He is meeting with Cindy Sheeehan.
