oh heeeeeere we go.
how low will he go to smooch liberal butt, in pursuit of so-called “moderates”? This is just the beginning, and we haven’t even entered the general election campaign yet.
Where’s his outreach to THE BASE OF HIS OWN PARTY that’s going to leave him high and dry come November?

Are they donating?
exactly, time is short... seems Al Gore sounded this globull alarm 8 or 9 years ago,, and gave us ten years till dooms day. so we probably won’t be around at election time
McCain is a jerk.
Can someone explain how a cap and trade system works, and why it is a good system?
Under these carbon credit systems, isn’t it just a feel good thing? Because those who buy carbon credits are still producing too much pollution, right? They simply get to feel good about “fighting global warming”? Is that how it works?
What gets me about that is that those producing too much carbon still get to produce the pollution. How does paying somebody else for a carbon credit reduce the pollution they are so worried about?
> Are they donating?
Moderates? Oh Lord no. They’re the courted ones, they’re not expected to pay doodley squat. Us trusty conservatives are expected to pony up. Well they can wait with their outstretched hands until they fill up with cobwebs, because the traitorous GOP is not getting ONE thin dime from me. Not ONE.
Speaking of Al Gore and those guys, why is it that, at the time of Kyoto in 1997, the U.S. didn’t ratify Kyoto? \
And why in 1997 and while Clinton and Gore were still in office, why the heck didn’t they fight global warming then? When they were in a position of power, why didn’t they fight with all their might for this cause which is the greatest challenge manking has ever faced? If Al Gore and all the Dems. so firmly believe that, why didn’t the Clinton administration get firmly behind it? If it’s an issue that transcends politics, why weren’t they fighting this cause when they might have made a difference????????
my thoughts exactly.
Would you prefer him to be honest, and lose by 5%. Or would you prefer that McCain say what needs to be said in order to win?
Although I’m not a big fan of McCains, I love the fact that he has embraced Global Warming and thus has removed it as an issue for the democrats.
Climate “scientists” hide their data, will not discuss their methodology, demonize people who disagree with them, constantly change their predictions, etc, etc, etc.
These are not the actions of people who have the facts on their side.
His base is not in his own party.
This isn’t a mobilizing issue and it is really a waste of McCain’s time. The only thing I can think of is he thinks there is a good chance of picking up some moderate liberals and green independents which are exactly the people who he isn’t going to get. He should stick to what works for him, fiscal responsibility, a strong military, and a strong economy. He might as well go pick up Huckabee as his VP for all that this is worth to him.
McCain is being honest. He honestly is a leftist.
