“If I want to support RINO’s I’ll give to a wildlife conservation fund.”

Funny.

Wasn’t that a lot of wasted effort?

Yeah, I guess it was. I thought Rudy was unappealing, so he was down on my list anyway (but still not a Section 8 candidate). Now when Fred shambled out, I felt pretty bad... and if/when he endorses Juan "embrace my conservatism without extremism, you ignorant racist nobodies" LaCain, Fred will be persona non grata in my book.

It's a hell of a predicament. The only silver lining I can see is that I'm able to more clearly see the true country club and open borders RINOs, and I can stop ever worrying about what Michael Medved thinks about anything.

Sorry but cannot forget McClain’s actions in recent years AND his efforts to normalize relations with North Viet Nam and squelch the release of “classified” information about POW’s at that time.

McClain is NOT about the truth. He is anti-truth. Which means he is very dangerous for this country and the world.

Of course, the DEMS are more dangerous. They are the total destruction of our country and its freedoms.

But McCain is only mildly less so.

My intention, if he is the nominee, is to do everything I can to help worthy conservatives in the Congressional/Senatorial races. We won’t win many of those either because the Soros / Saudi funded Dems will have the millions to spend to target any conservatives running.

But if conservatives can unite behind certain GOOD candidates, there could be some good results in an otherwise disastrous election cycle.

That, and prayer, will be the only “weapons” left to us.

Are you a paid McCain staffer?

Look at our polls. He’s not one of us. If he’s the face of the republican party I’m out of the republican party.

McCain’s fiery temper is incompatible with the Presidency. Plus, he’s clearly shown that he’ll do anything to get his way.

I’ll vote for McCain if he is the one running against Osama, but I hope Romney gets it.

McCain is more conservative than many conservatives give him credit for but in terms of psychology Romney would be a better man to sit in the Oval Office.

The writer of the blog needs to put the crack pipe down. McCain is a flaming open border proponent. He voted twice against Bush’s tax cuts. He is the orchestrator of the “Gang of Fourteen” designed to maintain the filibuster against conservative judicial nominees. He has stated recently that “Alito wears conservatism on his sleeve.” He supports ACLU trials for terrorists, wants to close down Gitmo and wants to ban waterbording on terrorists. He said John Kerry was “not weak on defense” and considered being his running mate.

Character? What a joke! McCain abandoned his first wife, the mother of their three children, through an extensive affair with wealthy Cindy. Betrayal seems to be a common theme with McCain has he has betrayed Conservatives methodically since 2000.

Loving McCain? Sounds ominously synonymous to loving “Big Brother.”

I look at this election 2008 with disgust. If McCain gets the nod, I tune out. I would never vote for the odious McCain.

I just have no liking or affection for an arrogant, authoritarian kook like McCain.

His stance on Al Gore Climate Cult is enough reason to say no.

I recognized the play on words - that’s what makes it so funny (and sad...)

This is strikingly similar to the time Rush Limbaugh on his radio show claimed that he was now supporting Bill Clinton for President. I was listening to his show that day and he was very very convincing. He did this for a number of reasons, one to convince himself that his critics were wrong and the listeners were not just a bunch of mind-numbed robots that would follow him anywhere.

That being said, as much as I despise McCain, if he’s the last man standing in November I will be voting for him over Hillary or Obama for two reasons. 1) The troops. Who will I rather vote for as the Commander and Chief? and 2) Justus appointments

He’s got ONE thing going for him in a general election.
He’s not Hillary.

Thank you for swaying more people away from McCainiac.
