“Well fortunately the cooler political heads at the top of the GOP will do what needs to be done before that will happen.”
Again you have implied that McCain won’t win the nomination (in fact you’ve all but guaranteed it) but McCain is in fact in a position to make a competitive run at it. Cooler heads at the top of the GOP are all well and good except of course the people get to vote. You keep alluding to some secret knowledge that you have, but in real life, if McCain wins SC and continues to gain momentum he’ll be a contender. I have a hard time believing McCain would drop out of a race that it looks like he could win just because some higher ups in the GOP told him he had to. McCain has in the past had no problem at all bucking the GOP.
But one thought.
If you were the big boys at the GOP, and knew what level of risk he is, would you do everything you could politically and then some to contain that risk? His is a unique case.
Think strategically, not personally. Think like a political party hack, think like you are in the backroom, not an individual.
The good thing is it will probably be a moot point in the near future. They were saying the same things about McCain 8 years ago after NH...
