Honestly, I am rethinking McCain. He has an ACU rating over 80%

I went to the ACU website and downloaded their ratings into an excel file.

McCain life time rating ranks number 39 of 100, half of the 100 are dems

He beat LUGAR, GRASSLEY, COLLINS, COLEMAN, HAGEL

That isn't saying much

Again, I hear you and agree with much of what you are saying (regarding McCain). Though, damn, I swore I'd never vote for the man because of his vote against the GWB tax-cuts and his constant backstabbing of the GWB WH (to suck up to the MSM. I just loath that type of character...And why it is still hard for me to accept voting for him).

I have my faults with Rudy on gun issues, his police state type mind frame. On the other hand, I certainly like his complete support for the WOT (and CinC GWB on the issue). I like that Rudy WILL take the fight to the DEMs (say what you like about him on issues, but the man will stand up and go on the offensive for issues he believes in).

Thompson seems good (but what do I really know at this point on him). I have concerns about him simply being outworked by the DEMs.

Reagan would vote for Hunter.

McCain vs Hillary? McCain.

McCain vs Giuliani? Tough call.

McCain vs any other Republican? Give me the field.

Reid Wilson, the author of this piece, works for Chris Dodd's Presidential Campaign.

“I just re-thought McCain. It still came out “no”.”

I didn’t get that far. All I could think was, “Why?”

He just reaffirmed McCain-Feingold this week on Fox and said it needed to be expanded.

Add McCain-Kennedy and the rest of his amnesty efforts.

And now he's co-author of a bill to place federal limits on carbon emissions. His campaign will really take off with Gore's endorsement.

I’m ashamed to say I live in AZ, although I am proud to say I didn’t vote for him.
