McCain's overwhelming majority seems to be a clear repudiation by Republicans of GW Bush's policies.

McCain is a moderate in many areas. Obviously Republican voters have rejected extremist policies in favor of moderation.

Just a heat of the moment statement that likely will not stand the true test: President Hillary Clinton.

On the other hand, I've heard from at least one liberal friend that if the race is between Clinton and McCain, they'll vote for McCain. Strange but true.

mccain has a screw lose somewhere. he goes to a market in bagdad for show, and gets some standholders killed just for talking to him, then he sez it's really safe there even tho he has 200 sharpshooters and 10 helicopters watching his back.

mccain is also an adulterer who cheated on his disabled first wife if i am not mistooken. nice guy.

yeah but an adulterer is better than a smart woman to some folks.LOL

oh and let's not forget his role as head of the keating five for anyone who had their life savings looted by his pals.

he will choose huckleberry as a running mate in an attempt to lure conservatives but his statements that there will be more wars and loopy crap like bagdad is safe for americans will doom him.

Not so strange - I fall into that camp. The logic here being - Hillary gets us into all the same wars; not because she believes in them, as McCain would, but because she will do what she thinks the polls indicate she should do, rather than exercising any actual leadership.

McCain then offers the prospect of allowing the country to get past that atmosphere - as does Obama.

I fall into that approximate 30% of conservatives that still just does not know yet. I actually agree with Gill relating to Hillary. I just do not find her strong enough in her convictions (even thou I disagree with the majority) and feel she would sway in the breeze. Will admit I find Obama a personable guy. Just to liberal. If a gun was put to my head I would vote for the Huck due to his conservative stand. However, have concerns over international and military aspects. McCain has the "strength" to lead. While I agree that states rights need to take more precedent I just get this feeling that it is his way of pushing off / side stepping social issues. I just wish he was a stronger force and more conservative. I do expect that he will now be more aggressive in gaining ground with us conservatives with Mitt out of the way.

Of course Hillary is as pure as the wind driven snow.

And you can say all those things about McCain Joe, but you won't be able to say CHICKENHAWK.

no doubt mccain is a brave man. but what do we know about him?

And are you saying that Romney is an extremist?

no doubt mccain is a brave man. but what do we know about him?

there isn't anything we don't know about hillary and plenty we do not know about obama.

my guess is that the repubs want to run against obama cos they got something they can swiftboat him with.

obama gives nice speeches but we need someone who can fix the mess bush is going to stick us with and mccain already said he doesn't know squat about economics.

not very encouraging during a recession.




Meat - the economy will right itself. We need a recession so the economy can expand again down the road unless the dems get in.



The issue Gil brings up is valid. But McCain is now reaching out to the conservatives - promising changes on his position on immigration, affirming a quarter century of his pro life and anti gun control positions. Keeping the tax cuts for individuals and corporations. His strong anti terror position is the way.



Romney or Huck will be the VP - expect Rudy as AG, a big prime time convention speech from Romney, maybe a cabinet gig for him.



Rush and Hannity are the anti McCainers. They fear a loss of listenership if McCain wins. If the Dems win, they are guarenteed high ratings for 4 years, depending on who gets the nod. Obama will be gone in four like Carter, Hillary will stay for eight. (I did not intend to rhyme) So they are leaning toward convincing listeners to stay home in November.

conservative "movement" - which has played a major role, the major role in creating that divisive atmosphere.

That's quite a leap. Anything but opinion to reinforce with?

Hilarious coming from a bill clinton guy. So now you agree with his impeachment, or is this kind of scrutiny saved strictly for repubs in your eyes.

read it again stew, only sloooooowly.



Once again, hillarious. McCain, though I doubt I'll be voting for him, has been in public service far longer than the one your backing.

Yet Hillary is the singular most divisive figure in American politics today.

That's quite a leap. Anything but opinion to reinforce with?

the fact is the american public knows little about him

the fact is the american public knows little about him, although some conservatives apparently do and they don't like what they know.
