Why John McCain was our candidate? The press.

I disagree. McCain was our candidate because of the primaries. Why? Because the socons went for Huckabee. The fiscal cons didn't like Huckabee so they went with Romney. The paleocons didn't like Romney or Huckabee so they went with Hunter. Oh yea, and there was some old guy named Thompson--a McCain supporter--who ran for a few months, just long enough to give McCain an edge over Huckabee.

In short, none of our choices, except maybe Hunter, were any good. And Hunter never got any support from anyone. No matter what choice we ended up with, it would have been a loser. You can't blame the media for that.

And by the way, nothing's changed. The GOP is devoid of leadership, and devoid of credibility.

Republicans in the House and Senate are the only people in the country attempting to stop this president. It would nice if they got more support.

Well it took several posts but you finally got around to yet again maligning Sarah Palin.
It is nothing less than ludicrous, as well as a lie, to state she is not a leader and that she lacks credibility. And please don't deny that it is Sarah Palin you refer to.

In the future why don't you just state in your initial post on all threads related to Gov. Palin:

Hi, I loathe Sarah Palin. She can never reach the presidency, she is not qualified, she is too polarizing. Whether any of this is true or not doesn't matter. Thank you, Huck

On your post 49 you called Hunter a paleocon.
That would be false. That would be the bunker L Ron Paul,
Buchanan, anti war fools.

Hunter, a vet of the Viet nam war and ranking member of the Armed Serv. Comm.

His son who is now a Congressman. and Marine Major served several tours in Iraq and Afgh.
