Well, now that he’s allied with Willard, it gets even easier.
Neither one of them (John and Myth) give a damn about conservatism, they just aspire to ascend to power. It’s a marriage made in heaven.
Got a link for that?
It appears more likely that he is allied with Arthur Branch. Arthur has had a 'hands off' approach to McCain.
You are way off base. McCain is intent on knocking out Romney. That is his number one target.
You seem to have picked up on something we missed. How are Senator McCain and Governor Romney allied? I had the impression that they were directly competing with each other.
The "alliance" is not Mitt and McCain, it’s not Thompson and McCain either. Rush had it right yesterday, it is Huck and McCain.
Thompson and McCain are still friends but parted ways sometime ago politically. If Fred still was behind McCain, he would have stayed out of the race. Thompson is not in as his “stalking” horse, that is idiotic to those who know the folks who brought Fred into this thing. Mitt has no ties to McCain at all, and indeed wants to be seen as much more conservative, so there is no relationship there.
The fact that Thompson and Romney are basically ignoring McCain is a good political play that I would not be surprised both are in on along with advisers from the RNC.
The name of the game right now for the RNC is to do away with McCain due to how much risk is involved, and Huck, well because. They will go to extreme measures, at least on McCain, to do this, but if they can force him to implode that would be the best method. One thing that is known is when McCain feels he is being ignored by his rivals, he gets testy in public, and we know what that means.
Getting rid of Huck is another matter and may create what many of us here would have thought was the strangest alliance of all, but to the RNC hacks it is gaining merit, Thompson and Romney. It is known the Mitt has a lot of respect for Thompson and Fred seems to be warming to Mitt. Watch the debates, look at how they have split their efforts.
This is a most unprecedented time for the GOP. Two of the most unlikely contenders, McCain and Huckabee, are threatening. The powers that be are not too fond of either of them (Huck has Ed Rollins working for him for Pete's sake) McCain could sink the GOP if he came unglued in the General or worse the White House (hey look the GOP put a nut in the Oval Office)
Desperate times mean desperate measure, or perhaps creative ones, it is about to get REAL interesting....
Now you’re saying that Mitt and McCain are teaming up? Do you just spew all kinds of shiite, hoping some of it sticks? Really, where do you get this sophomoric jibberish?
