The Demise of McCain’s Presidential Bid

So, now what??? What's gonna happen to Lindsay? He was, after all, anticipating the VP stop on the McCain-Graham ticket. Now, the best Lindsay can hope for is relection to the Senate.

A bit early, don't you think? I'm not a big fan of McCain, but three polls showing him trailing Rudy by a bigger margin do not make him dead. We should wait until the campaign really gets started. He is the establishment candidate.

[capt. norm]

McCain is just too unstable for me.

Think about his actions in the last 10 years or so.

He's done everything he can to get his face on the media cameras without regard to the real damage done by his actions in the Senate (McCain-Feingold....and the list goes on).

Nobody on his campaign staff would ever allow him to think it's all over because they want to draw the rest of their paychecks.

I think it's fairly obvious that he is already toast and we're a long way from when the actual campaign should even be beginning.

[zarf]

Lindsey will just go back to the bath house and get busy..

[TomGuy]

Their entire argument was "you don't want Hillary to be president, do you?"

Sort of like Hannity and "You don't want Speaker Pelosi, do you?"

Maybe if the offerings were of a bit more substance, but to vote for X because you don't want Y just doesn't cut it.

The GOP leadership still haven't gotten it -- the message voters sent last November. Until they do, they won't see much in the way of future wins.

I know. But I wanted to write about the hearse.

[Phlap]

(although)McCain recently appointed conservative Senator Jon Kyl of Arizona to chair his presidential exploratory committee ... his second wind at a presidential campaign has already run out of steam before it’s even officially started.

He never had a first run. He was used(egos are so easy to manipulate) by the liberal media as a way to attack Bush.

[hinckley buzzard]

Immediately after Pullen’s election, the entire staff of the state GOP resigned, ostensibly because the candidate for state chair they saw as pro-McCain had lost

Diseased, corrupt political diarrhea like this is what cost us the majority in 06. When the party schmucky-mucks insist on commiting suicide, what is a rank and file member to do?

[pissant]

You are not a McCain fan are you?

[Jim Robinson]

I like him better than Rudy.

[dirtboy]

Their entire argument was "you don't want Hillary to be president, do you?"

That's the entire Rudy booster argument as well, after you peel away their talking points one by one.

[pissant]

What about the Mittster?

[bmwcyle]

Rudy and McCain are RINOs and worthless.

[rock58seg]

I wouldn't vote for McCain for anything.

Hey! That's my line.. I have been using it for over a year or more. LOL But you are welcome to use it, if you use it often.

P.S. Nice dogs. My Grandfather, Dad, and a few uncles ran Walker Hound coyote dogs all their lives.

[c-b 1]

McCain has more problems in the Arizona Republican Party than the article indicates.

I think the wheels are falling off the "Straight Talk Express."

[Zathras]

Seems funny that we have to go to liberal Hawaii to get an honest conservative assessment of McLame.

[Jim Robinson]

Better than McCain(e).

[pissant]

Last question. Hunter?

[The Duke]

Word is McCain still has the media vote sewn up! :) </sarcasm>

[Jim Robinson]

I like Hunter.
