Bush is pro amnesty. He was stopped. McCain now says he has learned his lesson and the fence must come first.

Bush supported CFR.

As for tax cuts, McCain was right. Tax cuts are great but those people in Washington need to control spending.
That is my biggest reason to lean toward that RINO, McCain. He is right on spending. Bush was a disaester.

And he was/is right about Iraq.

I hate him for many reasons but if Fred drops out, he is the only one who can beat the beast.

“Bush is pro amnesty. He was stopped. McCain now says he has learned his lesson and the fence must come first.”

- A fool would believe that means he wont push for sham-nesty - he never apologized or backed down from that wrong position, all he said was he would build the fence *first*. expect a pathetic sham fence then a sham ‘certification’ we are secure from DHS, then a push for shamnesty.

“Bush supported CFR.” One of his worst decisions.

“As for tax cuts, McCain was right.” NO he wasnt. Human Events brought up the quotes that made clear he voted against the tax cuts on the grounds it was too generous and on class-warfare grounds, not spending.

” Tax cuts are great but those people in Washington need to control spending.” McCain is a hypocrite - he’s been in Washington for 28 years, what has he done?!? Not enough!
He voted for most of the bills he now campaigns against.

“That is my biggest reason to lean toward that RINO, McCain. He is right on spending. Bush was a disaester.”
- If you show a single time in the last 8 years he filibustered for smaller budgets, you might have a point. But McCain did precious little to stop it, he was too busy concocting CFR, amnesty and other RINO bills with the Democrats. He claims he’s not taken earmarks, but in fact he has.

His 2006 ACU rating was 65%, RINO level, worse that 44 other GOP senators.

“And he was/is right about Iraq.” okay, but all but Ron Paul are on the right page.

“I hate him for many reasons but if Fred drops out, he is the only one who can beat the beast.” Disagree. Romney is articulate and much better and credible economic change message. And isnt old like McCain. Romney can run a better campaign. Clintons will rerun the 1996 playbook against McCain. both Romney and McCain have a chance at beating Hillary.

McCain will lose the general election. He looks like death warmed over and now he’s having “senior moments" (on top of being rock-stupid to begin with).

Dole II.

He has had twenty years to control spending. If he could not convince his REPUBLICAN Senators to control spending when they were the majority, how is he going to control the Democrats who will have a pretty healthy majority???? 20 years is two long to spend spend spend and then suddenly he is going to clean up spending...I find that unlikely.
