I think Senator McCain could have done very, very well -- and still could do well -- in the Latino community."

Apparently not. They all voted for that uppity pos, Obamessiah. I hope McCain is mad enough to vote against amnesty. It won't make any difference in his political future if he continues to support them because they won't vote for him anyway; however, backing Americans who don't want amnesty will probably insure that he will win another election.

McCain is still in the Senate ready to do more damage. And no one here wants Obama to be President.

McCain was stupid to believe he could get the Hispanic vote by pandering. The Hispanic pressure groups are stupid to believe they can get his support without a quid pro quo. There isn’t a lot of glory here to be passed around.

I can think of only one other politician who has done the Republican Party more harm with respect to the matter of immigration and he shall go nameless but his initials are George W. Bush

LOL! True.

Juan McCain needs to go away and retire and take fat Meghan with you.

"....We felt very uncomfortable when we walked away from the meeting because of that."

Keep walking -- walk all the way to Guadalajara. You'll feel a lot more comfortable there. So will we, when you get there.

Noone "here" wants Obama to be president? Including all the IDIOTS who call McCain "Juan" and still refer to Bush as "Jorge"? Uh ... their names are John and George you twits.

I will repeat: You've got your Obama. You've got your nearly RAT veto-proof majority. Live with your stupidity. The GOP IS NOT the enemy. McCain is NOT the enemy when Senators like Schumer, Reid, Durbin, Boxer etc. etc. exist.

Just quit pretending that you are conservatives of any virtue or respect, okay? Because you are not. Many here have not the first clue how to get what they want via real world, grown up political maneuvering. What I see are world class, life long losers masquerading as conservatives. Stupid, stupid people on the internet.

For his next trick, Juan will carry a scorpion across the water on his back and not get stung.

I hear ya, that's an apt analogy. I am searching for the right word for such an instance of remorseful-bitterness-towards-someone-who-is-extended-some-kindness-and-repays-it-with-ingratitude-or-worse.

You obviously don't understand black humor.

The GOP IS NOT the enemy. McCain is NOT the enemy when Senators like Schumer, Reid, Durbin, Boxer etc. etc. exist.

Well then, the Democrats must not be the enemy, because Mugabe, Chavez, and Ahmadinejad exist! /sarc

At the end of the day, evil is evil, irrespective of degree or magnitude.

If you want to join the RINOs who, regardless of intent, act to subvert the Constitution and the conservatives whom they claim to represent, then by all means, go ahead and join them and the Democrats in their quest for a better Socialism.

“John McCain sounds angry and frustrated that, despite the risks he took in pushing immigration reform, Hispanic voters flocked to Democrat Barack Obama in last year’s presidential contest.”

I thought it was friggin’ hilarious.

GOP and conservative do not mean the same thing. I would say that for the last several years, they have been nearly polar opposites. On this issue, the crap thrown Jorges and Juans’ way has been RICHLY deserved. Heck, a strong case can be made that if Juan had won the election, he wouldn’t be doing much differently than Zero.

We were faced with an impossible choice in November. No matter who won, conservatives and America lost.

Lying, pandering, and surrendering to one's opponent are not generally considered to be proper "grown up political maneuvering."

Hispanics gave Obama a whopping 67 percent of their votes, more than double the 31 percent they gave to McCain.

And those of who predicted that would happen were villified and called racists. There was never any doubt the hispanic votte would go to the dems. All McCain was promising was amnesty, while the dems sweetened that pot and added other enticements such as free healthcare and other give-aways.

Are you saying you would rather Arizona elect a democrat next year vs McCain who has been voting a R party line? I think people here actually enjoy all the crap Obama is bringing down on us with the help of Reid and Pelosi and their majority in congress.

"Noone "here" wants Obama to be president?"

Noon? It's almost 6.

"Including all the IDIOTS who call McCain "Juan" and still refer to Bush as "Jorge"?"

Yeah.

"I will repeat: You've got your Obama. You've got your nearly RAT veto-proof majority. "

My Obama? What are you on?

"Live with your stupidity"

????? I don't understand what you are talking about. I voted for McStain if that's what you mean but that does NOT MEAN HE IS GOOD OR I HAVE TO LIKE HIM OR KISS HISS BUTT OR PRETEND HE'S A CONSERVATIVE. I voted for a skunk over a skunk with rabies (Barry).

"The GOP IS NOT the enemy"

I agree, I am a member of that party. Some other members though like McCain and Bush are weasels.

"McCain is NOT the enemy when Senators like Schumer, Reid, Durbin, Boxer etc. etc. exist. "

They all suck, some are worse. Some argue McCain is worse because he does damage from within the GOP, like a Trojan horse.

"Just quit pretending that you are conservatives of any virtue or respect, okay?

I don't have multiple personalities so that won't be a problem.

. Many here have not the first clue how to get what they want via real world, grown up political maneuvering

McCain offered little of what I wanted and his political maneuvering was more "geriatric" than "adult". If you think McCain is acceptable or that Bush was it is you who is not a conservative.

What I see are world class, life long losers masquerading as conservatives. Stupid, stupid people on the internet.

Don't be so hard on yourself.
