Glad to see it. I've been a McCain fan ever since the Bushcrappers
screwed him over in South Carolina in 2000.


Hear hear.

Congratulations to the Florida Republicans for making a very wise
choice.

I haven't voted Republican for POTUS in a very long while. Depending
upon who the Democrats nominate, I could imagine voting for McCain
this fall without too much angst.

I *despise* (!) a lot of McCain's political stands, but POTUS needs to
be about character and leadership moreso than politics. McCain scores
highly in the personal integrity and ability categories, and most
people who agree with my politics should be put in jail, anyway- not
elected POTUS. :-)

A McCain candidacy would help improve the tarnished image of the
Republican party and maybe put a few R's back into congress, but
assuming that the D's hold the majority in congress we would be back
to what is historically the best arrangement in Washington DC- the
executive and legislative branches controlled by different parties.


Now I'm not up on the political scam er scheme, but how could Hillary
get such a huge cropping over Barrak, and no delegates, and McCain
topples Romney and gets 52???

Really I don't know that much about the whole primary process.


It's called cheating.

Back in August, Michigan and Florida moved their primary dates forward
and the DNC (Democratic National Committee) as a punishment said the
state delegates would not be seated at the convention.

ALL Democratic candidates at the time promised not to campaign in
Michigan and Florida.

Guess who reneged on both pledges?

Anyway, now Billary wants the delegates seated from - hold on - from
Michigan and Florida.

Funny how that works huh?
