McCain's phone call to voters today, three days before the California Primary
McCain ^ | 2-2-08 | McCain

Posted on 02/02/2008 9:20:45 PM PST by doug from upland

Here is the message I heard this afternoon.

Hi, this is Senator John McCain. I'm calling today to personally ask for your vote and make a pledge to you. As your president, I promise to lead our nation and our party as a Ronald Reagan conservative. I'll lower your taxes, veto wasteful government spending, and ensure our party returns to the smaller government principles on which it began.

I'll secure our border first before pursuing any other immigration reform. I'll appoint conservative judges like justices Alito and Roberts. I will protect the sanctity of life; I have a 24-year record to prove it.

This is my commitment to you. As you go to the polls, consider our greatest challenge as a nation is to defeat a relentless enemy - the radical Islamist extremists. My life experiences prepared me better than any other candidate to defeat this enemy. We can and will win this war.

Again, this is John McCain and I humbly ask you to vote for me.

Paid for by John McCain 2008

Note: the only candidate for me who is below McCain is Ron Paul. I hope this guy is not the nominee. I don't want to do it, but if it is Hillary and McCain, I have to vote for him in November. It is only slightly hyperbolic when I refer to her as Satan's Daughter. While I was in DC recently, I met with a PI who had been hired to harass Kathleen Willey before her testimony in the Jones case. As bad as McCain is, we cannot allow a neo-Stalinist to get back in the White House. It is not just a supposition -- she will shut down talk radio. This will not be a redux of Carter leading to Reagan. If she gets in, she will change the rules and ensure Dem control for decades. She really is dangerous. I would rather do battle with McCain than her. If she wins, I will literally be hiding in a bunker somewhere.

I got the same call today on my wife's business line. All I could say when I heard it is, "Why that lying bastard!" The part about securing the borders was especially contemptible. I found it insulting. He must also think I had forgotten his votes against the Bush tax cuts and his awful comments regarding the Christian right.

John McCain is an enemy of conservatism. He is a collaborator.

We received 3 calls and voted for Mitt Romney all three times. My husband was yelling at someone about how he wouldn’t vote for McCain if he were the last person on earth. Further, he said he would vote for Hillary Clinton if McCain gets the GOP nomination. He was fuming!

I think it’s hilarious that John McCain is now for shutting down the borders, etc. At the last debate, he said he wouldn’t even vote for his own bill now. What a hypocrite and he has to nerve to talk bad about Mitt Romney.

Go, Mitt!

I don’t think you will be alone in that bunker Doug. As for McCain the thought of voting for him makes me sick. But he is old. I would like to know who he plans for a VP. That might make me feel better voting for him somewhat or it might make me feel a whole lot worse. Either way I figure I am not going to be feeling very well for a number of years.

I can’t either, but the Clintons are a criminal enterprise who will do anything to anyone who gets in their way. Because he changed the rules regarding the sale of technology to keep Bernie Schwartz out of prison (Bernie then gave 900K to the DNC), the ChiComs can now target us with their missiles. I can’t believe some people are forgetting the 8-year nightmare we had.

I guess that’s my take as well. But I don’t think McCain can get elected even if nominated. He just plain scares too many people.

You can expect a reprise of the anti-Goldwater advertisement, at least.

“Do you want this guy with his finger on the BUTTON?”

And that will be the least of it.

A couple days ago, I called for him to name Duncan Hunter. Then, on Jan. 21, I will lead the call for impeachment.

In a choice between a narcissistic schemer crook and an unstable backstabber, I’ll take the crook.

He would vote for Hillary? Welcome partial birth abortion and the gay agenda enforced by her 6-3 Supreme Court. Of course, we will not be able to be discussing or fighting it because FR will be censored as a hate sight with the stroke of a pen.

I got the same call in Florida last weekend. I never got a call from Romney.

just to get on the record

I will vote for the Republican.
I learned my lesson with Ross Perot.

Amazing. Some of you slept through the eight years. A rapist and rape enabler led this country. They allowed missile technology to go to the ChiComs. They took money from the Chinese military and never paid a price. They used the IRS and PI thugs to intimidate people. She was not kidding that she will take things for the common good.

No, she is much more than a crook. She is the greatest internal threat this nation has ever faced.

If McCain becomes the nominee, one could make a fortune selling 2008 Presidential Nose Pinchers. One could make them out of clothes pins with the face of John McCain glued on the front. I know I’ll have trouble holding my nose as I work the computerized voting machine we are using at our polling place.

I received the same call even though I registered as an Independent last summer when the RINOs were trying to force the amnesty scheme down our throats.

I'm betting on Gov. Crist of Florida. Either him or Ted Kennedy.
