McCain: I would rather "lose" the election than..........
SteveK1 | 10-15-08 | SteveK1

Posted on 10/15/2008 11:55:22 AM PDT by stevek1

I heard on our local Tampa radio station this morning 970 Radio:

According to a political analyst, McCain would rather "lose" the election than conduct a dishonorable campaign.

If this is true, than many of us regret sending a contribution to McCain.

This reminds me of a boxer fighting in the last round needing a KNOCKOUT to win the fight. Instead he jabs and dances.

It's better to go down in flames with honor, according to McCain.

The problem IS that it isn’t about HIM losing the election, it is about US losing our country to socialism. So, as Rush Limbaugh has stated, we are going to have to “drag John McCain to the White House”. Think of it as voting for Sarah Palin and voting against Barrack, the media, socialism, terrorist left-wing radicals, and ACORN. But we have to DO THIS AMERICA!!!

We shouldn’t be dishonest or anything, but McCain is/has been too soft. He needs to go after Obama harder. There is so much ammo that he could use against him, but it’s like McCain uses very little of it or none at all.

Come on, McCain, get some guts and fight!!!!

The political analyst may have said this but McCain didn’t. He said, “I would rather lose the election than lose a WAR”.

PLease do not start talking about the next election until this one is over!!! You need to get off the couch and start waving an American Flag with a McCain/Palin sign. If we lose this election, we LOSE EVERYTHING!!!

What’s “dishonourable” about telling the truth about your opponent? Last I heard, TRUTH was honourable.

Oh, so he’d allow a thug/liar/phony/Marxist to become President and ruin this country because his ‘honor’ is more important than the USA? What does he consider dishonorable? Exposing Obama’s lies? His past? His pals? His record? I guess we don’t have to bother watching the debate then since McCain will be emphasizing hands across the aisle baloney. Obama will be declared the winner no matter what, but it would have been nice if McCain had done the right thing by the country and the millions of Americans who supported him. And Gov. Palin, who has worked her heart out for him.

Well, maybe mccain is right: the honorable thing is to allow a cult personality regime to take power over the United States.

Heil obama!

“According to a political analyst” Never says that McCain actually said it.......

Worth repeating. This is just a vanity about some what some political analyst things. The headline is VERY misleading.

The problem lies in that if McCain loses the election, the war will also have been lost!

The dishonor is allowing a fraud to take over this country.
