In 1996, it was Bob Dole’s turn, everybody stood aside, and we went down to defeat.

In 2008, it is supposed to be John McCain’s turn, we are all supposed to stand aside, and we will go down to defeat again.

Sorry. No sale. War heroes who are bad candidates and destined to lose are bad candidates who are destined to lose. You don’t give somebody the Republican nomination as a gesture of gratitude for their service in a war.

Frankly, I think that people should remember that Dole endorses McCain, and ask themselves if we want to lose to a Clinton again.

Dole specifically said that he is not endorsing anybody.

Who is forcing people to vote for McCain? No one.
