Open Letter to Senator McCain

Open Letter to Senator McCain

Senator McCain, I write this to you out of dire concern for the outcome of the general election, thus the direction our great country will be led at this crucial time in our history. It appears Barrack Obama will secure the Democratic nomination. With the overwhelmingly diverse support he is receiving and the ensuing contributions, coupled with the fact Democratic voter turnout is consistently much higher than ours, it is imperative the staunch conservative base of our party be not only fully aligned, but also inspired.

For this reason, your choice of a VP running mate is more critical than ever. They must be of the caliber to secure this support not only in the South, but across America.They must have a proven record. I implore you to not only consider, but to choose Fred Dalton Thompson. A McCain/Thompson ticket can and will triumph over any ticket the Democrats will put forth.

Sincerely, Charles T. Purvis

It’d be nice, but I’m expecting Joseph Lieberman.

They deserve each other since neither are Conservative.

Charlie,

To date Mr. McCain has ignored the wishes of the conservative base on quite a few extremely important issues ... what makes you think he's going to listen now?

Oh, and welcome to FreeRepublic.

Let’s see, that would be “Old and Older” as well as “Sick and Sicker”. Thompson is a good man, but he is ten years too late, and his cancer condition is no small matter. So is McCain’s, beside the fact that McCain is no Conservative and the VP spot would not cancel that fact out.

Fred want to revoke the anchor babies and actually not grant amnesty but force the illegals to get out.

Little Juan MxCain has sold out on those exact issues. Juan will have no part of Fred.

After the way so many talking-head elitists on the right simultaneously ignored and trashed Fred Thompson when he was running for POTUS, I doubt he wants that attention all over again. Besides, having a 65 year old running mate isn’t the best choice for the 71 year old McCain.

Welcome to FR, but lets not be delusional, McCain doesn’t give a rip what you, me or any conservative thinks. He thinks that he can win without all of us. I am going to enjoy watching him try.

“A McCain/Thompson ticket can and will”

Be named after that movie, “Grumpy Old Men” by the MSM.

Whoever he picks, he will be better than the radical marxist.

Dear Sen. McCain,
When I hear you say how you respect Clinton and Obama, and then hear you repudiate and apologize for conservative commentators and their remarks, I wonder whose side you’re on.
You’re not going to pick a good running mate, are you? Somebody you might have to repudiate for running against Democrats. No, of course you won’t.

You must be operating under the mistaken belief that McCain gives a flying crap what any conservative thinks.

I'd be willing to put money on McCain tapping John Edwards as his running mate. This makes perfect sense since McCain came undeniably close to being John Kerry's running mate in 2004.

That ain't sayin' much. My baby's soiled diapers are a better candidate than Obama.

Watch McNoob pick the Huckster, (My guess) in order to get the “conservative/evangelical” vote. (McLaim views Huck as conservative LOL!)

And, look at the fundraising, sort of right in line with how the voting is going to go....count on it......and start planning smartly to straighten this party out for good. This is our best chance not to blow it for 2012.

John Edwards, VP.

GAWD. That is just about sick enough to actually make sense to little Juan.
