WHEN WILL McCAIN TAKE A STAND LIKE GOV. PALIN HAS?
SELF; VANITY | 10/03/2008 | Thomas Sechrist

Posted on 10/03/2008 2:52:56 PM PDT by Tucker39

WHEN IS JOHN McCAIN ACTUALLY GOING TO JOIN BATTLE WITH HIS OPPONENTS IN THIS CAMPAIGN?

I have grown so discouraged with John McCain's inaction; his seeming lack of commitment; his refusal to take the fight to the enemy in this Presidential Campaign, that a few moments ago I submitted the comments below to his Official Campaign Website. For all I know they may be deleted and totally disregarded by the operatives at his end. But they relect my true feelings at this juncture.

The very day Sen. McCain picked Sarah Palin I mailed in a contribution. Now I wish I hadn't. And I feel sorry for Sarah, being fooled into a partnership with John McCain, who TALKED a good game the day he introduced her, and for a few days after; but since then has reverted to his pansy-assed sucking up to the Democrats, who would kill him in a moment, if they could.

Sarah sparkled like a diamond in her debate and fought like a MAN! Now when is John going to gut it up and ATTACK the lying bastards in the other party? Enough pantywaist hands-across-the-aisle wimping out! The Dems are eating John's lunch, and he gives NO indication that he even NOTICES it! Why did I WASTE my money on a non-starter?

Poor Sarah! A thoroughbred hitched to Beetlebomb! John! John! This is NOT a game of "Drop the Hankie!" This a battle for the future of The USA! Obama Is NOT an honorable man! He wants to honor his mentor, Saul Alinsky and bring Marxism to the White House! And he will achieve it if you continue your milquetoast pseudo-campaign!

You're the TOP of the ticket. And if you don't start showing some BALLS, you're going to LOSE! Has that possibility crossed your mind at all? You are LIVING UP TO every accusation of being a RINO that has ever been made of you.....in Spades!

How can you let your co-candidate go out and take a stand for RIGHT and Honor and Republican Principles, while you drivel and blab about insane crap like having Al Gore in your Cabinet?! Dear God! Why did I waste a cent of my money or a moment's trust and hope on YOU?! 80% of the people say they think man-made climate change is a huge crock, but that is nearly ALL you can talk about! Nobody believes that crap, John! Talking about it makes you look like such a doofus! And having your staff force Sarah to spew that global warming drivel, too! It's bad enough that YOU do it!

Why don't you talk about how you tried to introduce legislation to control Fanny and Freddie, but that the DEMS shot it down? And give dates and NAME NAMES! Why don't you NAME Barney and Chris and Maxine, et al? They've been NAMING YOUR NAME with great abandon and mendacity! Don't you even have the balls to stand up for YOURSELF?! You're no fighter! You're just one helluva big disappointment, because you're trying to MAKE NICE with corrupt, rotten, disloyal bastards who would just as soon run over you as look at you.

Drop the "my esteemed fellow-Senator" bullshit and point out the damnable LIES they are spewing about you and about Pres. Bush and about Republicans in general! I counted 16 huge whoppers from Biden Thursday night. Unless you find a pair of balls somewhere and TAKE THE BATTLE TO Biden and Obama, Barak Obama is going to be our next president! Is that what you WANT?

Poor Sarah! I think she made a BIIIIIG mistake!

I have grown so discouraged with John McCain's inaction;...

He is running a Bob Dole campaign (and will get the same results)!

You people have to understand. If McCain fights back, the media may not like us anymore...

It's a shame he's making a little small town hockey mom do his dirty work. She the only one worth voting for out of all of them.

It is too bad that McCain is not calling Obama on what he is, his lies, his associations and his track record on everything ANTI-AMERICAN.

If McCain loses, it will be because he GAVE THE ELECTION to Obama. He has more than ten times enough “ammo” to sink Obama -— he just needs to use it NOW, NOW, NOW !!!!

I honestly the only reason he’s not going after the democrats for their obvious role in Freddie Fannie is because of the Keating 5 scandal. That’s it....I think it’s moronic.

I agree. McCain should shut up and let Sara talk.

My wife and I talk about this. I am beginning to think that McCain really does not want to win. Anybody with any smarts can see the problems ahead, Iran, Afghanistan, North Korea, Venezuela, Hamas and the Middle East, Russia, economic cycle going down, mortgage mess, derivatives coming due, etc, etc, etc.

So I think he will continue to just plod along, much like Dole, and let ASSama have it.


I also think that Governor Palin will return to Alaska and continue to do her stuff there and we will not see her nationally again. She is a go-getter and she will relaize that she can still do much for her constituents without having to put up with the likes of Congress and the Dims and the lazy Repubs.

Who do you think put in the line in “air raiding villages and killing civilians”? Expect it to be a repeated quote by McCain.

I reject the defeatist notion that this is a Bob Dole campaign. Bob Dole would be down 20 points under these circumstances. Let McCain thrive. It’s clear he wasn’t fully prepared for the first debate because of his trip to Washington. He has two more shots that I suspect will be better.

Obama is a communist and McCain should call him on it.

“I am beginning to think that McCain really does not want to win.”

You can’t offer a single plausible explanation for that assertion.

“He is running a Bob Dole campaign (and will get the same results)!”

The difference is that Palin is his political viagra.

Having said that I feel somehow ashamed.

McCain lost me with that vote. Not that he had me, I was holding my nose because of Sarah. All he had to do was just act like a conservative for a couple of months, but instead he reverted to type.

Everyone has to do what they think is right. I’m personally writing in Sarah’s name instead.
