“but it does not sell to the general US electorate.”

The ‘general US electorate’ sure as hell didn’t vote for McCAin, did they? A few fools in NH, where McCAin parked for the last 8 years voted and the Media declared him the winner. He was allowed in debates when he was BEHIND everyone else! Many US citizens haven’t gotten a chance to vote yet, but that doesn’t bother you! They’ll be represented by your illegal aliens voting.

It’s great you are happy with McCain, but don’t pee down our leg and tell us it’s raining or that the US ELECTORATE picked John McCain.

Why don’t you just come out and admit that you’re thrilled that millions of US citizens have no representation election after election, as long as you get what you want.

76% of registered Republicans in California, almost 4 million people, did NOT vote for John McCain in the primary.

Good points!

BTW, McCain was near the bottom of his graduating class, hung out with strippers, betrayed his first wife, and treated shabbily families of POW and MIA. He did the worst in the debates. He has been absent for more than half the Senate votes (the worst record). What makes anyone think he can handle the job of the president?

The open borders/glabalist crowd doesn’t want choices beyond what they deem acceptable.

What do you think it will take for people to see we are no longer being represented in government, we are being ruled?

The will of the people is no longer important.

How sad.

All that is required for evil to thriumph is for good people to vote for the lesser evil.

There’s your answer, Jane. Doesn’t matter what kind of amoral lout we elect, as long as he can beat someone.

Some people will never get it. When they become dissatisfied with one "leader," they'll just look for someone else to lead them around by their nose. We need a massive education campaign if we are ever going to succeed. Otherwise, we'll have folks giving up sovereignty in the name of a "cleaner planet" or equally misguided propositions.

Nothing stands in such contrast to our administration's stated motives (as also touted by McCain)- not even the border and illegal immigration- How does one fight the Muslims in the middle east, while simultaneously giving them the back door to Europe in Kosovo?

That’s why we call them elections. May the best man win.

"Just win, baby"?

And when he signs us up for the new Kyoto and pushes a $5 trillion dollar amnesty, will you still be cheering?

Exactly as we have had to do with Bush, except this will be much tougher with the bullheaded nasty-tempered McCain.

And much more likley to screw things up because of it as well. If little Juan MxCain gets elected I suspect he will be a single term. If he gets his amnesty through before the 2012 election you can bet the farm on it.

I’ve checked out our local branch:
http://www.lawac.org/

It includes the same L.A. power-mongers — a bunch of megalomanics that want to rule the world.

Just a suggestion, maybe you all should change your marketing campaign, yes it sells in your own little echo chamber niche, but it does not sell to the general US electorate.

It's still a long way from the election, and with McCain-Feingold in place, the MSM is free to beat him like a rented mule long before voters go to the polls. I wish it weren't so, but they'll make him nostalgic for his NV captors.

Bush at least surrounded himself with a whole bunch of folks I respect. McCain is running around with whiners like Lindsay Graham and a bunch of dinosaurs like (oil-for-food scamster and Hugo Chavez loving) Jack Kemp and Warren Rudman. Bush was a bit stubborn, but nothing like the "I know everything" John McCain.
