” know that darn McCain never did anything for the Conservative movement in his 20 plus years in the Senate.. /s

Wonder why Ronald Reagan even gave this guy the time of day... /s”

Part of his 11th commandment thing I suppose. One more thing Regan was wrong about. The other was amnesty.

I’d rather not see that, thank you.
I’d like to hear what Romney has to say.

1. Campaign Finance reform was needed both sides supported it.. however, it happened to wind up hurting the Republicans because the Democrats figured out ways to cheat .. Either way it is not a good law and is a mistake.

2. McCain already said he would change the Amnesty bill and thought it was a mistake and that he would enforce the border first.

3. Gitmo... Gitmo is a bad deal in the eyes of the world... He never said let them free he said figure out the problem bring them to military prisons in the states and deal with them... Jury out on this one... I personally don’t think its smart but the way its spun is unfair.


Nice spin!

1. Campaign Finance Reform - Conservatives don't care who supported it. It is about principles. This bill was always about suppression of groups and people who would bring up unpleasant FACTS about an Incumbants past history.

2. Amnesty - McCain may or may not enforce the border. However, he will provide Amnesty for 20+ million law breakers (people who have committed misdeamnors AND FELONIES using fake IDs).

3. GITMO - John McCain KNOWS that once these little terrorist TURDS make it to US soil they get all the rights of US Citizens which they do not deserve and would make prosecuting them and interrogating them impossible. John McCain is a poor choice for WOT and national security issues.

In short, you are shilling for a RHINO, a very flawed candidate.

McAmnesty will destroy the conservative wing of the GOP, the GOP itself, and the quality of life here in the US.

I’m going to check if there is any other radios covering it. It says suspending campaign. But the news I heard was temporarily. But I don’t know now. Fox is saying drop out.

Laura is certainly mocking the “calm down,” “foot soldier in the Reagan Revolution” mantras of McCain. I don’t think this group in the audience is going to buy whatever McCain plans on trying to sell later today.

Laura: Not enough to have been a Reagan foot soldier, the question is “What have you been doing for conservatism lately?”

YES!!
