We should all consider how much he has done.

I hope they walk out on him. If not they should turn their backs and have “blood stains” on them that say “McCain Was Here”.

Get ready to see CPAC ‘08 covered like no CPACs before.

Don’t succumb to the temptation to dress funny.

Right, well, we’re calming down and forming a plan for regrouping after McCain and Huckabee hand the election to Hillary, because we aren’t voting for them.

I hope someone gets the Senator’s response to Hannity’s great point today about McCain and his supporters’ “straight-talk express for me, but not for thee” contumely.

Question is, How do we DRAW him closer to the roots of the Republican party and to Reagan-ism?

Hannity was also extremly brutally-honest about ‘our strategy’ on H & C.

calm down a little bit...

Mr. McCain, I will calm down when you drop out of the race. You spit in the face of the conservative base. You tried to sell us up the river, or should I say down the Rio Grand, with "immigration reform". You have fallen in lock step with Algore!

Mr. McCain, I think it's safe to say that I despise you. You should have switched parties when you had the chance. ... my 2 cents

Most people know that when you tell upset people to just calm down, it makes them angrier. I guess he missed that in Psy 101.

F McCain and the GOP if he is the nominee. My loyalty is to the republic, not the republican party. Reconciliation with McCain is impossible. There is absolutely nothing McCain could McCain say or do in the next nine months to make this conservative believe that he is a changed man and would somehow govern against his record.
