anitram said:I think it's hilarious how the Republicans are suddenly all hanging on to McCain like he's their own personal Jesus, after having written him off for pretty much all of last year (except STING here, I have to hand it to him, he's devoted). Everyone else was crowing about RUUUUUUUUUDY and Fred and diamond had a lot of man love for Mitt, and so on.
But suddenly, when faced with the prospect of a hillbilly being beaten by every Democrat on the ticket, everyone is changing their tune.
I am not sure if you feel I have thrown McCain under the bus or not. He is the reason I became a Republican in 2000. I do believe he has taken unpopular stances on many an issue. Even when I disagree with him, it does not bother me because there is something about the man that makes me able to tolorate the news.
What I find insane is how he can kiss the right wing of the party's ass. It sickens me. I liked that he stood up to them in 2000. I suppose it is the price for winning.
I am no longer a Republican. I would like to see him get the nomination over any of the other candidates on the republican side.
