Let’s say they do get the border under control. Do you think it will take more than 48 hours for McCain to start to push through a liberal massive worker permit program, so that millions can come over that way instead?

I don’t trust this guy farther than I can drop kick him.

Its always a good sign when your opponent starts talking about how irrelevant losing to you will be.

Yeah, brilliant move for McCain. Campaign in a state where he’s 32 points behind and neglect a state he has a better shot at earning more delegates in. Pure genius.

How about some fairness? Any defense of McCain on this or any other thread?

Those who don’t support McCain (the nominee) are welcome to leave the party. This is really sad the way you are attacking a guy like McCain.

To paraphrase a great radio host, WE ARE FAIRNESS! We balance the MSM's constant non-stop promotion of the "inevitable" McCain.

McCain has no money.

Only a sepia OLD looking commercial on cable TV, no robo calls.

He HAS to do “look at me” media whore stunts.

I have C-SPAN on now. Just finished watching a McCain rally, and a Romney rally is on now. The McCain rally was like a coronation almost with the same McCain party-types there (old and tired) (don’t get me wrong, I’m a party-type as well). On the other hand, the Romney rally on now shows determination and vigor. I give Mr. Romney a lot of credit for fighting. He truly believes that things need changed in Washington and is determined. John McCain said again at his rally that he would work with Democrats. I don’t mind working with the other side to come together with things that we all agree on, but I fear John McCain will comprise too much, as his record indicates.

Nice map -- it's from Commonwealth (massinc.org): Beyond Red and Blue. Here's a bigger version from there:

This is really sad the way you are attacking a guy like McCain.

What's sad is the way that McCain has attacked our Constitution, our sovereignty, our economy, and our party. If he hadn't spent the past fifteen years attacking us, we wouldn't be attacking him now. You can only stab the party's base in the back so many times before they see you as one of the enemy.
