NO McCain! Defeat him in the primaries!
Amen, and amen!!!
I put McCain on par with Gerlad Ford, although not quite as exciting.
That was the one shining moment of 2006.
a wee bit of exaggeration there, just a wee bit
>>Why would McCain start his campaign so early?
For one reason, the race is wide open — with no president or vice president running for the first time in 80 years. <<
Another reason is likely how darn expensive this race is gonna be.
MSM: Heads we win, Tails you lose.
We as conservatives can't EVER let RINO's like McShame to become our nominee.
Heh, heh. I needed that!
NO WAY
That's stupid. Yes, he been a pain in the ass on the torture issue, but he has a good excuse there. Other than that, he has been a solid supporter of the WOT, including Iraq.
You might want to worry about your grammar and spelling :-).
The problem is that we've had years upon years of "Oh no we can't support a conservative, he'll lost!" and a president who has supported incumbency over policy.
Good candidates need to be cultivated, and we haven't been doing that.
This lifelong Republican will NOT be voting for McCain at any level. Just remember 'Keating Five' & 'Fiengold/McCain voting act', these two actions override all his military achievements, period.
I agree DFU
I would suggest instead that the Republican Party put someone who is conservative up. Not a Democrat.
McCain is so utterly stupid. The MSM will hype him, wall-to-wall, proclaim him the second coming, and encourage crossover voting in the primaries. If and when he gets the nomination, they will go back to form, and scorn him like the evil Republican he never was in the first place. This story is giving me gas, already.
Darn it, I wanted to post this!
Maybe I'll make front page.
McCain will be held ambivalence and I don't think he can win the primary. My opinion is still that he is a great American but has too many liberal twists and far to often is too self serving with his efforts.
Why bother?
The only way he will do well in the primaries is to have Democrats and supposed Independents cross over and vote for him. But, they won't vote for him in the General election as Lincon Chafee found out to his dismay.
Needless to say, I will not vote for him for anything.
Not really.
Oh please. That reminds me of when, in the 1980's, a democrat friend of my Dad's said that he liked Gorby better than Reagan, and would vote for him before Reagan if he was running against him.
