McCain has thrown the election. It is clear now with his choice for Vice President that he has no desire to win in November. Why else would he chose an inexperienced woman, whose only apparent qualification is that she won a beauty pageant in the 1980s? Why else would he refuse to say Barack Hussein Obamas middle name? Why else would he run an ad praising Obama and congratulating him for winning the nomination?
If McCain had chosen Mitt Romney, a man with real leadership ability, real charisma, and real experience, he might have stood a chance. He could have made up for his lack of energy in confronting his opponent, his useless pandering to liberals, and his refusal to expose Obamas leftism and inexperience. Instead he trumped inexperience with more inexperience. Obama, for all his far-left socialism, picked a running mate who is perceived as giving the ticket more experience. McCain, in defiance of all logic, undermined his strong suit by selecting a political neophyte who waters down his key advantage over Obama.
Of course, I can hear the calls already. Mike, you should give her a chance, shes a real conservative. Mike, hes just doing this because he knows he has to pander to win. Mike, isnt it great that he picked a woman. Wrong, wrong, wrong. Picking someone because of their sex instead of their ability is the same kind of affirmative action insanity that the Democrats have shoved down our throats. We dont want a panderer, we want a president. If he had chosen a woman who was a real nationalist with a real resume, I would have said, Right on, John. But McCain has dropped the ball, thrown in the towel, and raised the white flag. And a generation of Americans will pay for his

Because last night we saw Obama with his moon-eyed drooling sycophants itching to ruin the country.......that why.
Savage, he’s sooooooo....San Fransisco.
Dear Savage. Shut up.
You put your opinion post in News/Activism. An “old timer” like you should know better.
I like Mike and would have been very happy with Romney. I disagree with his assessment of Sarah Palin.
Savage is making a complete clown of himself. He says he is is the base of the Republican Party. I thought he was an independent.
That looks like experienced to me!LOL.
She has the correct forestock grip, thats for sure. That weapon is definitely shouldered.
I wonder how many dem wimmen can lock in like that?
Of course Savage Weiner wouldn't be able to see that now would he?
Great Pic. ( swiped).
He shouts at his listeners and calls them names, he panders to people who feel a need to be punished.
I could give a rat's ass what he thinks.
Hey Mike do us all a favor and for once STFU.
So that Governor thing is just incidental...
What a tool!
I am so glad I gave up on Savage years ago...
Savage must think he’s Survivorman. He’s obviously drinking his own urine.
Sorry Mike No Myth! (Aiken Free 2:45 in)
It would be hilarious if someone did a sad Romney pic montage and set it to that song. Sadly I lack such skillz.
Savage isn’t worth listening to anyway. He’s a narcissist in love with his never-ending smug outrage. he fond out how to shout from his diaphragm, and fell in love with the sensation. Sometimes he happens to be right, but this ain’t one of them.
BRILLIANT move, McCain.
What if bob barr asked romney to be his vp...????
He is a radical man, and after his targeting autistic children as misbehavers we should not even have a savage thread on this forum!!!!!!!!
I think you are right. I live in Northern California and use to listen to Savage when he was just a local show. He used to be very entertaining and insightful. Since he went national he has become unlistenable. I now believe he is actually the Westboro Baptist Church of conservative talk radio.He takes stands that mock conservatism just insult the philosophy When I heard he donated to Jerry Brown I knew this guy was a fraud. I actually listened to the first hour of his show today just to hear his reaction. Savage is a clown in it for the money and is laughing all the way to the bank. I will not ever take him seriously again.
Michael may go off the deep end with a lot of his subjects and deserves much of the castigation he gets, but I have to support him on his autism rant - you are seriously wrong with your libelous statement. Savage said no such thing. You are drinking the koolaid of the radical left when you blindly parrot their talking points without considering the facts. The transcripts of his show are available. So show me this assertion he supposedly made.
When Chuckie Schumer saw this picture he wet his pants and cried.
On his website over 75 million people voted for him to run for the pres...
Also, if the esteemed founder of his forum is listening, I would like to put forward a grassroot thought and suggestion.
Jim, could we just do this by acclimation now? Can we make FR an official McCain-Palin site, and put up a logo for McCain on the top page, (maybe with the GOP Party logo) and just take down the commitment to "independent conservative" in the mission statement and preamble? I think we should make it official at least and turn this into a sanctioned adjunct of the McCain-Republican Party. We may even be able to arrange to have the Republican National Party fund it (they have bucks we could only imagine), so we don't have to struggle through Freepathons anymore. Just a thought. After nine years here, I think this is the prudent thing to do and would reflect majority sentiment in favor of McCain and that wing of the party. I believe we should start the "Day in Life of John and Cindy" threads and "Pray for Candidate McCain" threads. That would appeal to a wide group of people. You may want to start considering this now.
