"Don't call me, McCain. I have a long memory."

Exactly...

Conservatives have a long memory. McCain will never be the Republican nominee for one simple reason.

"On February 28 (2000) in Virginia, the home state of Moral Majority founder Jerry Falwell and Christian Coalition founder Pat Robertson, McCain launched a vicious attack on these "self-appointed leaders" of the Christian right. McCain called them "agents of intolerance" and described the two men as the right-wing equivalent to "Louis Farrakhan and Al Sharpton".

The next day McCain suffered major losses in Republican presidential contests in the states of Washington, Virginia and North Dakota. Exit polling showed that conservative Christians played a major role in McCain's defeat. Less than two weeks later McCain suspended his campaign."

..your post combined with the NRLC link on #56 should just about do it for anyone who is even remotely considering McCain.

..he simply is not wired right...

..bitter, twisted, profane, and mean-spirited...
