Also, FTA:

McCain also needs to refurbish the image that he has sought to burnish throughout his Senate career — as a political maverick willing to buck his party on some major issues....yet he must do so without alienating, and possibly inciting a primary challenge, from the potent conservative wing of the Arizona Republican Party, which has not always been thrilled when McCain has strayed from party orthodoxy on issues such as immigration, campaign finance regulation and global climate change.

Nuts!

In otherwards McLame needs to do what he always does. Try to play both sides of the fence and crap on conservatives.

Thrilled ain’t the word for it.

Try to play both sides of the fence and crap on conservatives.

The good thing about the 2008 electoral results is that Zero was not given a mandate. The bad thing is that the RINO wing of the Republican Party still thinks it can win.

In 2010, conservatives should crap all over McCain and send a message to the rest of the RINOs.

John Kerry, the Massachusetts Democrat who narrowly lost in 2004 to President George W. Bush

But no doubt Zero won in a landslide?

And the GOP thinks it can win by emulating the Democrats.

Hey, they’re still re-electing the former boyfriend of Mary Jo Kopecne in Massachusetts every 6 years, so nothing would surprise me.

I think McCain will get a strong primary challenge. It is worth remembering that McCain did not even get 50% of the presidential primary vote in AZ, the only “top tier” candidate of either party who failed to do so. And McCain won AZ in the election with just 53.4% of the vote to 44.9% for Obama. Bush won with 54.9% in 2004. McCain is vulnerable.
