The war hero senator who rescued America from accepting humiliating defeat in Iraq -- by having the courage to put his country ahead of his own presidential prospects -- is now himself in need of a rescue.
Is it too late for McCain?
No. The man who more than anyone else forced the highly successful surge strategy in Iraq just might be able to pull victory from the jaws of defeat once again by adopting a bold surge strategy for his own campaign.
great article, and great picks
Romney is probably best suited to turn around this financial mess and should have been the VP pick.
Sec Def - Chuck Norris
Homeland Security - Chuck Norris
Dep of Education - Chuck Norris’s fists
Normally, I would think it would be a bad idea for McCain, but a good idea for 0bama. That is because the MSM would dig up dirt on McCain’s picks faster than they did on Joe the Plumber. They would, of course, gush over whoever 0bama named.
But, those 3 choices (Romney, Rudy and Liebermann) are very good fits and all fairly well vetted already.
I think announcing them would win a good number of votes.
the RATS love this stuff to try to make conservatives depressed and discouraged.
let's all try saying this at least 10 times a day:
President McCain and Vice-President Palin
see how easy that was and don't you feel better ?
so let's pray and work hard and vote to save our republic !
McCain would be really, really smart to say he’d have Attorney General Guiliani track down the criminal financiers while having Treasury Secretary Romney overhaul Wall Street. I am astonished he hasn’t do so as yet so here’s hoping ....
“..pull victory from the jaws of defeat once again by adopting a bold surge strategy for his own campaign.”
I would like to see how bold he is going to be. Up to now Sarah has been the forceful one and McCain has been lurking around in her shadow. It is frustrating to see a war hero, who once had a backbone, act like a RINO. Today I voted for him (early voting) but I ask myself if perhaps I want him to become POTUS more than he himself wants to be.
Rudy — Secretary of State
Duncan Hunter - Defense
Tom Tancredo - Homeland security
Get real!
John Bolton, Secretary of State, Defense and Health & Human Services, inclusive.
General Petraeus, Secretary of Everything Else.
Vicente Fox for Customs and Border Protection
Labor Secretary: Joe the Plumber
Rudy as AG with a promise to perp walk all the CEOs and Congressmen who made bundles of money while peoples’ life savings evaporated would be a mighty statement of purpose...Romney turning the mess around...Lieberman as Secretary of State...please John McCain...be a maverick NOW!
Hey there, long time! What’s the political update from your neck of the woods?

hey there !
thats good news from you utes, we are gonna deliver the sunshine state for mccain/palin too !
