Can’t wait to see how the FRedheads spin it when Fred endorses McCain and it becomes painfully clear he was a shill all along.

I will tell you how I would spin that now if you wish. John McCain is the only one of the four liberals left that I would trust to be commander-in-chief of our armed forces. From what I have heard from the other three I don't believe they have a clue (with the exception of maybe Rudy). If you have to nominate a liberal during a time of war at least nominate one who understands the proper application of military power to achieve political and military objectives.

That is my position as well. I'm not a McCainiac, but I'd take him over Flip, Gungrabiani, or Huck.

Finally someone I can agree with.

McCain can be thought of as a Scoop Jackson Democrat, in the same category as Joe Lieberman. Maybe conservatives wouldn’t be so angry with him if he didn’t pretend to be conservative on domestic issues, which insults our intelligence.

And in a time of war, it’s a fair trade to elect someone who would be a solid Commander in Chief, even if he is wrong on domestic issues. (But I still worry a lot over who McCain would nominate to the Supreme Court.)

You should have posted a “barf” alert with your post. McQueeg will be way to friendly with the dimocRATS. Then there is the global warming thing.
