I can understand people disliking McCain. I also dislike him. But I don’t understand falling for Huckabee or Romney just to oppose McCain. None of these guys are really any better than the other, on the whole, and even on the core issues.

Romney says he’s a conservative now? Well so do McCain and Huckabee, should we believe them against all evidence as well?

Thing is, McCain has one positive that neither Huckabee or Romney have. He’s electable, especially if he can mollify the conservative base with a conservative VP. And not just electable, potentially big time electable, as in helping sweep conservatives into office in these local races.

You’re forgetting one thing: McCrazy is a Democrat.

It’s now on the record from named sources that he approached the Rats in 2001 and then again the Kerry Campaign in 2004.
