Everyone wants to complain about the Republican Party, but No one wants to do anything about it!

McCain lost because of his age, not on what he stands for. If he had been younger, he could of run a more successful and agressive campaign.

Your story is a testament to why Republicans need to start early in the election process.

Like caucus states, they will count as nothing more than a straw poll. Republican primaries will have scheduled dates based on the % that the state voted Republican in the previous POTUS election. The true conservative states will vote first! We will have Republicans choose our candidate, not mushy RINO’s and RATS! Problem solved.

to get your plan implemented you have to join the Republican party and changed the Republican party rules of selecting a candidate, and I think the rules are different in each state. Good Look with your Plan.

You must be kidding!

Do you have blinders on? Twenty percent of conservatives refused to vote for him. He went after the undecided and they broke 70 -30 to Obama.

McCain lost because he was more of the same.

McCain was more of the same and OLD , not energizing his base.. that is what I am saying, we need New Faces, Younger faces in the Republican Party.

No, you were saying he did not lose because of what he stands for.

I am saying that is exactly why he lost.

Utter crap. McCain not only had a bad message, he delivered it badly as well. The guy has as much charisma as a bowl of moldy pudding. One of his very first speeches after winning the nomination was pushing "green" energy initiatives and talking up the global warming crap. Hardly a ringing clarion call for conservatives to "get out the vote" for him.

I agree. I was very impressed with Tim Pawlenty when I saw him speak on behalf of McCain on the Sunday talk shows. Jindal, though young, is another up and coming voice for the party. Whether Sarah runs in 2012 or not, she will have a big megaphone between now and then. She has “it” - however “it” is defined, which is why the media’s crapweasels cannot leaver her alone.

Republicans are older with health issues, memory problems, and can not use a computer. :-)

You have aptly described the Republican County Chairman in Saratoga County New York.

Nah, I’m not THAT cracked up over it. I just need some time to get back on my elephant. :)

Ryan/Sensenbrenner 2012? :)

If everyone who voted McCain/Palin were to:
cancel all magazines like Time, Newsweek
cancel cable TV, just continue internet if possible. NO MONEY TO ABC/CBS/NBC/CNN or their ilk.
Find out companies advertising with the above and BOYCOTT their products, and tell them so.

By the way, who would I talk to about a plan that would solve global warming, the energy crisis, unemployment, and world hunger all in one really simple package. It would also make the operators $billions.
