McCain is an opportunist. He would say or do anything to gain approval -- from the media.
This approach leaves you vulnerable when you're ahead -- you might misread the situation and say something stupid.
And it leaves you hopeless when you're behind. Because you start guessing what people want to hear.
Unprincipled Democrats can win the nomination and the election. But unprincipled Republicans cannot.
Principled men who think like losers (and an opportunist is a loser) will always lose. Principled men who think like winners and whose objective is to win will always win. Obama won mainly because he and his minions manipulated the system, in a way they cheated by hiding facts and having the propaganda machine present a candidate that did not and does not exist. We will continue to lose because the other side has already decided the rules of the game. In such cases when you are fighting an enemy who is unprincipled you will always lose if you let them kick you in the nuts and you insist on playing by queensbury rules. Sorry, it’s time for the rules of tit for tat, we have to stop bringing a wet noodle to a gunfight.
The recent elections in Minnesota and upstate NY are a precursor of the whipping we are going to get in 2010. The democrats (communists who infiltrated JFK’s party) will cheat lie and even murder to win. We need to understand this, the gloves have to come off and we need to understand that they are not the loyal opposition but rather a gang of criminals and thugs that need to be eradicated. We are in a civil war, and the civil part of the war is not being practiced by the other side. We under estimate the viciousness of our opposition at our peril.
