McCain planning climate change tour
Examiner.com ^ | May 9, 2008

Posted on 05/09/2008 12:47:50 PM PDT by PROCON

Sen. John McCain really does want to tempt the Republican base. ...

We've gotten our hands on an advanced transcript of this weekend's "The Chris Matthews Show" on NBC and the British Broadcasting Corporation's Katty Kay offered this nugget during the show's "Tell Me Something I Don't Know" segment:

"John McCain is going to be doing more of these themed tours of America, and one of them is going to be on energy and global climate change. It could get him into trouble with Republicans, of course, and with the base, who don't think there is much climate change going on, but it is something that he's very passionate about and he's going to be talking about it."

Oh God! I’m in the energy industry and I am really, really, really, gonna have to hold my nose to vote for this guy. Unfortunately having Obama in the Whitehouse is NOT an option.

In many cases when passion comes in to play logic gets lost in the emotional turmoil.

I DIDN’T THINK IT WAS POSSIBLE. But everyday I get the feeling that McCain really doesn’t want to win, just to run and be in front of the cameras..........

It’s really sad that the GOP thinks it can force its once faithful base to vote for a Democrat who puts an “R” after his name. No, thanks, I’ll just pass on the POTUS portion of the touch screen.

I’m not making any more of these bad choices. I can see your dilemma but we’ve been hosed too long. Take a look at the Constitution and Libertarian Parties.

“What the hell’s wrong with this guy ?”

Worth repeating.

He is quite old.

Could possibly be his senility is finally too advanced to hide anymore.

If not Gore, maybe Michael Bloomberg, NYC nanny. Or maybe Hillary if she and Barrack don’t get together.
