I wouldn't put it past her, would you?

The Republican versus Democrat concept is irrelevant because they are both run by socialists. It's a matter of conservatives versus socialists. The bottom line, barring some unforeseen circumstance, is that a socialist will become President.

If yesterday’s travesty of a speech is what pushes Mccain into the presidency, then I am truly even more frightened than I have been so far.

I can’t decide whether McCain has suffered an aneurysm, is on super-powerful psychotic drugs, or is simply living in a fantasy world that none of us will ever experience.

Listening to his speech about the “accomplishments” of his first (only?) term in office, is scary s**t, man!

Hillary quietly endorsing McCain? That says a lot more about McCain than it does about Hillary.

Don’t be surprised if McCain picks Hillary as his VP...

Just think about that for a moment...

Considering that he’s said he’ll work closely with and appoint Democrats to his cabinet, why not ask Hillary! to run as his VP if she loses the nomination?

He could jump start his Utopian era of true bipartisanship.

I thought about it for a moment. VP Hillary would arrange for him to be assassinated in a New York minute.

I hope you are right about McCain winning! The MSM has not even begun to attack McCain. It`s going to be pretty bad! First they are going to rehash his wife's problems with prescription drugs. They will say she stole drugs and allowed another person to be falsely accused of taking them. The Keating 5 thing will be examined like never before, we all know the age thing and temper stuff...it`s going to be messy. They are actually going to attempt to suggest that the John Haggee comments about the Catholic Church (which he has since apologized for) are no different than Rev Wright`s terrible comments. THEY ARE NOT EQUAL AT ALL.

McNutts is NOT suicidal.

>>> McCain for president, not easy to say, but for the sake
>>> of the unborn I must support McCain

I understand ... and to the extent of the war and pro life issues, I agree, McCain’s the only possible choice . . .

But in EVERY OTHER WAY we are just sooooo totally screwed: There is nothing else that I can agree with McCain on. Naturally, we cannot ignore the above two issues, and maybe that’s enough to be getting on with...

But the devastation of this country, social policy, economy, energy policy, environmental policy, taxes, business and financial issues, and so on, and so on, McCain will decimate this country no less worse than BHO - in fact, it seems as if he’s trying to out-Barack BHO.

>I must admit that I had just about given up on the notion that a Republican could win the White House this year

I hope that is sarcasm because there are no republicans running for high office this year.
No matter what letter is after their name.

>>> McNutts is NOT suicidal.

No...but voting for him is like entering into a suicide pact. He is the final destruction of the Republican party as a conservative entity.

Rush has it right: McCain is part and parcel of the Republican elite that is turning the party hard left (at least “hard center”) away from conservatism. Something has to be done to save conservatism, but what.

We are just so totally screwed...

Yeah...and McCain is not going to play in the same battlefield as the Dems.

Ironically: We all (including McCain) can agree that we should not negotiate with terrorists... But McCain will negotiate with the “social terrorists” of the Democrat Party, while taking pot shot after pot shot at our people.

“Don’t be surprised if McCain picks Hillary as his VP...”

No, but maybe Olympia Snowe...Just to keep it in the family, yaknow.

McCain will decimate this country no less worse than BHO

Hopefully it's only 10%.

RE :”when they compare the liberal record of the other choice, whoever it may be; it’s a no-brainer”

Rush put it great once again, We have to be FOR someone and something. It’s not enough to be upset about Obama. If McCain wins, and it’s unlikely, the broken bricks of the Republican party left by Bush will be dust. Time for Democrats to get responsibility for something bad, cant happen under liberal McCain as pres with a superdemocratic majority.

I wouldn't put it past her, would you?

No but she has to walk a very fine line. If she truly believes that Obama cannot be elected then she'll campaign her ample butt off for him, figuring it will make no difference. But if she's wrong...

Just think about that for a moment...

I did. And while I appreciate a good laugh first thing in the morning now I have to wipe coffee off my screen.

RE :We are just so totally screwed...

As we were in 1992. But 1993+94 were fun years, the only two years democrats were held responsible for anything in my lifetime(of voting). Note: Democrats have convinced voters they didnt win in 2006, that Republicans are still in power, everything bad is their fault(some truth to that as Bush had a majority for 5 years) and they are compassion and change.

So what you are saying is the MSM will just pick up old FreeRepublic threads. Heck, they might even talk about his out of wedlock black child.

The MSM is in McCain’s back pocket. The GOP has nothing to worry about on that front.

The only way McCain might have a chance is if he shuts his mouth. Every time he opens his mouth, bashing Republicans, saying no to ANWR,torture etc. he loses more and more votes.

Polar Bears.
Amnesty.Everything else is determined by these two issues.

After what happened in Miss. the other day, I can easily see Obama winning. God help us all.

I am a conservative. I no longer have a home in the Republican party. It is so sad to see the end of the United States un my lifetime, but I am resigned to it.

Well, better her than The Huckster! At least Hillary was once an active member of the Republican Party.

But in reality folks, I’ll dedicate this song to Hillary as she fades into the sunset after June 3rd.

I am already getting my brain around the almost inevitable fact of a President B. Hussein Obama in 2009.

The way I look at it, the good ship GOP with captain McCain at the helm regards Reagan conservatives as the rats they plan to politically exterminate. On the other hand, we are on a stormy sea, and if the ship sinks right now we all drown!

> the notion that a Republican could win the White House this year

There are no Republicans running this year -- there's only McCain.

Obama, if he gets the nomination, may self destruct and put McCain in the White House. However Congress will remain controlled by the Democrats now with veto proof majorities so the tax and spend will continue little different than if Obama were answering that 3 am phone call.

I would not be surprised.

So many obituary's being written by the media about the death of the Republican party and Conservatives.

All thats left to do is write the epitaph on the tombstone.

As a Conservative and a non Republican looking on I see that this doom and gloom rhetoric is coming from, of all people, those RINO’s who have caused this premature death.

Life is a beach and then you die but the Republican party is a long way from being dead.

Once again those of the airhead, wishing and hoping variety of left wing Democrats have gotten many Republicans suckered that life is over as Conservatives have know it.

Rest in peace thou once loyal and faithful servant.

McCain for president, not easy to say, but for the sake of the unborn I must support McCain

Indeed...

Did not McCain say he would fight to extend the tax cuts? Corporate taxes, health care, pork, entitlements, spending? McCain is better than Obama on any of those. Much better.

BUT...let’s not leave out of the equation the “Do you believe him” factor. I believe that people are what they SAY they are in their unguarded moments.

All the self-imposed “changes” in positions that McCain has articulated since getting into the race are meaningless to me. I need to evaluate him based on his totality. I don’t trust his word on anything but what he’s already proven himself: the war and very little else, such as abortion.

And don’t blame me ... “Maverick” has had years to change and prove himself...and he has failed to do so. It’s too late.

Isn’t Bob Weir, like, the Grateful Dead’s guitarist?

From Wall Street Journal This is a summary of the article: She graduated from Southern Cal and was a special-needs [Special Education] teacher. After her Dad died she became involved with his beer distributing firm and is now the chairwoman. Sales have doubled since she has taken over from her father. She and Sen. John McCain have a marriage prenuptial agreement; her assets remain separate. She is involved around the world clearing land mines - travels to these countries on a detonation team and serves on their board of directors. The McCains have a 19 year old serving in Iraq, another son in the Naval Academy, a daughter who recently graduated from Columbia Univ., an adopted daughter in high school, and a son who is the finance guy at the beer firm. Raised kids in Phoenix, AZ rather than Washington DC.(better atmosphere). He commuted. In 1991, Mrs. McCain came across a girl in an orphanage in Bangladesh. Mother Teresa implored Mrs. McCain to take the baby who had a severe cleft palate. She did so without first telling her husband. The couple adopted the girl who has had a dozen operations to repair her cleft palate and various other medical problems. They have a Family Foundation for children's causes. She's active with 'Halo Trust' - to clear land mines, provide water and food in war ravaged and developing countries. She will join an overseas mission of 'Operation Smile', a charity for corrective surgery on children's faces. She has had two back surgeries and became addicted to pain killers. She talks openly about it which she says is part of the recovery process. Unfortunately, all we hear about is her former drug problem. Whatever you may think about John McCain, she sounds like an intelligent lady who is a real humanitarian. . .

How cynical of you. Regardless of who’s president, enjoy your pouting for the next eight years.

Post the peckerwood graphic. Thanks!

So you are saying that McCain didn't prove himself in the past when he voted against Bush's 1990 tax increase, when he voted for Bork (when everyone and I mean everyone was throwing him under the bus), when he railed and voted against Bush's trillion dollar prescription drug giveaway, when he voted against farm subsidies, when he took down a multi-billion dollar "defense" contract sham, when he voted to extend Bush's tax cuts (because not doing so would be a tax increase), when he waged a war against pork of all variety? Seems to me McCain does have a record worth examining.

I am truly even more frightened than I have been

It won't be getting better. There is no sense going around getting more frightened all the time. Book a ride on the Magic Bus to India and find a reasonably priced guru. It won't change anything but you won't be so worried about it.

“The MSM has not even begun to attack McCain. It`s going to be pretty bad!”

Are you kidding? That’s going to be great!

What hurts McPain is McPain himself. He really keeps telling prospective voters NOT to vote for him — he doesn’t need them. But mostly, people do see him a third term for GWB and reject that notion.

I’m’ reminded of a certain fellow I once heard say “If you don’t like what BobDole has to say... the exits are Clearly Marked!”

I don’t know if this is a winning strategy. Sort of like saying mature people know we need to raise taxes.

Yes but if McCain wins the adults will still be in charge. If Obama wins it will be pizza parties and grabass all night long in the WH like it was with Clinton. That’s how we lost naval vessels, embassies, and the World Trade Center.

Every morning I wake up knowing I need to vote for McPain in November, and by evening he’s opened his mouth and turned me against him again. Somebody on another thread said therefore I need to vote in the morning, and I probably will.

At least I’ll be happy if he wins and sort of sickly satisfied if he loses too.

More from the McCain Deranged:

I can’t decide whether McCain . . . is on super-powerful psychotic drugs . . .

Congrats. That was a brand new cheap shot.

Bump. The blasted socialists have coopted both nomination processes.
