"I have to tell you, [Obama] is a decent person, a person that you
do not have to be scared [of] as president of the United States."

Thanks in large part to the Tea Party movement, we can be certain that in 2012 there will be no Romney, Huckabee, McCain, (or even Palin for that matter) on the Republican ticket. The race is wide open and youth and a new face will have their day.
If the Tea Party people won’t become a total farce, then supporting Juan McCain is a great way to accomplish that. Nothing other than Obamacare would cost more than passing Juan’s amnesty and cap and trade schemes which he has advocated for several years.
The more Romney or anyone else supporting Juan tries to relate their support to what Juan has supported and advocated over the years, the more ridiculous they will look. Juan is NO deficit hawk, and his constant whining about the $20 billion or so in annual earmarks is one of the cheapest applause lines around. Eliminating 100% of that would barely even be noticed in our almost $4 trillion dollar budget and $1.6 trillion projected deficit for 2010.
RIGHT NOW is the time to hunt the RINO.
It’s open season, so lock and load, boys and girls.
The ones we fail to get this Spring not fail to stab us in the back ‘come Fall!
Romney’s whistling past the graveyard that contains McCain’s political bones.
RINOs know they are an endangered species.

Given lord McCain voted against the permanency of the Bush tax cuts, I wish JD would start asking lord McCain where he stands now on tax cuts. And why lord McCain is not raising cain in the Senate to keep these tax cuts intact. Lord McCain's liberal claim he was against 'earmarks' or excessive spending just won't hold up in still being against making those tax cuts permanent. JD could hammer him day and night over his liberal economic views.
Bailout Juan? That lion is toothless. Congress made Captain Sullenberger retire at age 65. If only McCain were an airline pilot.
Exactly my thought too.
This term 'lion' (or is it 'lyin'?) is familiar though. I know that I've heard it before on FR on Mitt threads. Maybe ejonesie22 or diogenesis can help me with my memory?
Sam Axe, on Burn Notice...
Yeah that's him!! LOL

These people are the establishment GOP picks. You have to listen to them and support them! If you don’t do what the establishment GOP says, you’re a hate-America-firster, a truther, a birther, a connoisseur of child-love, and a closeted homosexual who wants Islam to rule the world!
Wait, I probably need to say that’s sarcasm, because I’ve seen that argument many times on FreeRepublic.
(You knew this was coming)
But I see 2012 as a time when our enemies (foreign and domestic) have made substantial gains and our leaders will need to possess honed and specialized skill-sets to combat those gains. That is why I would like to see the ticket of Petraeus and L.Cheney with Amb. Bolton as SoS.
John McCain is in a quandary. Before, his rich wife would just buy his seat. Nobody would run against him because the AZ Republican party doesn’t stake its candidates. But J.D. Hayworth has the reputation and name recognition to neutralize most of McCain’s wife’s money advantage.
Plus, a lot of people in AZ don’t like that RINO, and for once have a choice to vote for anyone else.
Just ONE MORE INDICATION that “Mitt” has lost touch with reality.
Talk about an empty suit.
RINOs are antoher problem. Boot them to the curb
McCain’s amnesty position is just great for our government budgets, isn’t it?
What’s specious about Romney and Palin’s argument that we need McCain’s clout fighting health care is that what is at stake is not his doubling down conservatively right now, while he’s in campaign mode—but from 2011 on, when the balance in both the House and the Senate will be much more favorable—and McCain is certain to go back to his RINO ways.
I’m starting to think that political insiders have dirt on Hayworth beyond that which we know about—otherwise the list of McCain endorsers is just too hard to fathom.
I’d like Mitt if I could trust him to run the government like he ran Bain Capital. The problem is that he opens his mouth, which proves he’s a politician.
