That’s why we never get ahead..because of people like you. Listen to me, I worked my ass off to defeat John McCain. But he won. DEAL WITH IT...you’d rather lose the Senate out of spite? You’re insane. It’s his last hurrah...I predict he will stay to the right...there might be nobody to reach across the aisle to...STAY POSITIVE.

Stay? He hasn't been 'to the right' since 2000. Of course, recently, a little two-step for votes.

McCain is known to have a mean streak and hold grudges. My prayer is that that meanness extends to Obama. Obama has treated John like crap to his face on national TV. I did not vote for McCain but I hope he never forgets nor forgives Obama and puts his energies toward making HIM look like a fool and a loser. That really shouldn’t be hard to do.

What has mcCain done to make you think that? If it is his last shot he will come with both guns. Don't be so stupid. He is still pissed at us because he didn't get his amnesty bill passed.

LOL, you obviously haven't checked my posting history - usually, I'm the guy who is slapping around the holier-than-thou types who want to dump somebody because he only scored a 95% on the ACU lifetime voting record survey.

However, I understand that the GOP has to draw a line somewhere. It's one thing to support imperfect candidates who are still, nevertheless, reasonably conservative - especially when these less than ideal candidates hail from states like in the northeast or the northwest where we cannot reasonably expect a real red-meat conservative candidate to do any good at all. It's quite another thing, however, to simply support the Party's candidate because he has an "R" after his name.

And in the case of McCain, that's what we'd be doing. Let's face it - McCain is terrible, from just about any point of view you want to look at it. He is pro-amnesty, pro-illegal, questionable on social issues, his fiscal conservatism has a definite country-clubbish ring of expediency to it, and he seems to make it his business to fight harder against his own Party than he does against the other guys. We don't need McCain in the Party.

And what's worse - Arizona could do a lot better. It's not like AZ is some left-wing New Englander state or anything, after all.

Frankly, McCain can't exit from the political scene fast enough for my taste. He really needs to just retire, take up golf, and enjoy the rest of his silver days out at Sun City West or somewhere. In the meantime, he won't get a lick of support from me.
