McCain: Obama has not changed Washington
CNN - Political Ticker ^ | 2009-07-31

Posted on 07/31/2009 4:24:17 PM PDT by rabscuttle385

(CNN) — Despite his campaign-trail promises, President Obama has failed to change the partisan tone in Washington, Arizona Sen. John McCain said Friday.

"I'm afraid they have," Obama's former presidential rival told CNN's John King when asked if the administration has 'failed' in delivering on its repeated pledge of bipartisanship.

Poor Mac, still stuck on stupid. He should be kissing Sarah’s feet or else he would have lost every single state. What a dufus. He actually thought Obama was bipartisan. OH MY GOD. How did this idiot make it passed the primaries. I knew Obama was a Marxist pig the second I saw him, yet this guy who is so has been in the senate for how many years, couldn’t see it. Nothing gets passed Johnny Mac does it

Like anyone with any sense really believed he would. Obama is the radical liberal’s liberal ‘Rat. That is the native animal in DC. He isn't going to change anything. More likely, he'll wallow in it. McCain is really dumb if he honestly believed Odumbo would be any different.

When he said that to that elderly woman during his town hall meeting, my jaw literally dropped. Everyone in the room booed. I said “Well there you have it, Obama just won the election” McCain mind as well have driven Obama to the White House and dropped him off at the front door. McCain never gave a damn about fighting for US, never had it in him, he was pussified because he didnt want to make the media angry at him for smearing the messiah

"President Obama has failed to change the partisan tone in Washington"

Hey John, I don't give a rip about the freaking "tone" in WA. Let it be ultrapartisan -- it doesn't bother me a bit. I do care about the out-of-control spending, the government takeover of private industry, the tax hikes, etc. ...some of which YOU are guilty of supporting.

Either McCain has completely lost his mind, or he deliberately took a dive at the election.

Either way, he's sold his country down the river.

It must be electrical interference bouncing off that metal plate he has in his head. When asked; “What went though your mind when you first knew you had been shot down?” McCain’s reply; “OH CRAP!; I have been shot down!”

The man is brilliant I tell you. Certain proof that we as voters lost the election 3 different ways.

That's something I've been turning over in my mind since we lost the dern thing. I've heard others say the same thing. I do believe that "that lil' ol' gal" he totally misread surprised him and it was UH-OH time.

What an idjit.

Just as well that McCain lost.

If he won, he would “reach across the aisle” and encourage passage of the all the crap that Congress is currently doing. When nothing worked, Congress would blame him. The media would go along. And the Dems would increase their Congressional majorities.

Now at least, there is on one to blame but the Dems as they run everything.

When some years from now history has had its say, it will be noted of Juan Mclame— that he failed his country with his weak-kneed stand during his run for the Presidency. America, as a result of that failure, rapidly jerked left, descending to third world Amerika under the fist of the guile of its new communist master.

What will probably remain unknown is any explanation as to the motive for such a colossal campaign failure—from the nefarious to the incompetent.

Now tell us how you REALLY feel!

LOL - I agree with you 1,000%. Getting Sarah in the national spotlight was the only good thing that came from 2008. She's a keeper!!!!

I'd sure like to know what really happened re: the Reagan library speech but still absolutely adore that true American woman!

I highly doubt perky katie reads what Sarah reads....

Well, I could have cared less about McCain winning the election, I voted for HER not HIM. I think as far as the Reagan Library goes, I think it was wishful thinking on their part. Probably got a maybe from her people and they ran with it. According to Ziegler, they had completely sold out, over 900 tickets sold, including some to celebrities. That really shocked me, I wonder which celebrities paid money to hear a Conservative woman speak

“he deliberately took a dive at the election”

I believe he knew he was losing and he thought by choosing Sarah he could pin the blame on her - And the campaign tried its best to do that. Problem was, Sarah almost won it for him!

How did this idiot make it passed the primaries.

My best guess is George Soros finally figured out what he did wrong in 2000 & 2004, he only backed one candidate!

Mad Mac was almost out of the running and nearly out of cash and when we got up the next morning he had the nomination locked up. How the H#!! did that happen? I think Geppetto had two Pinocchio's on a string so there was no chamce for error, he could control the entire campaign charade.

You can't loose if you "copper" your bet...

Hmmm, that's interesting - would love to see the names.

Yep, I voted for Sarah - mccain is a whiney socialist-lite without a clue.

I mean of course McCain would have been a better alternative, I would have slept good at night knowing that Sarah was in the White House, but McCain became a huge turd and decided that he cared more about being buddy buddy with the media then winning an election. He threw Sarah under the bus after the first month. He’s a schmuck, now he is back being cute with the press, having them all kiss his butt again. It is what McCain always wanted, admiration from the press, now he has it

They were OPEN primarys meaning non-GOP party members could vote in a GOP primary. It was fixed so that no Conservative would win. It's a one party cartel. Both parties leadership is Liberal at their core.
