“McCain, in his victory speech, made a very clear attempt to be gracious towards all of the candidates, including Romney, and reach out to Reagan-coalition conservatives.” ……From the ‘Captain’s Quarters’ blog.
Wild Thing’s comment……..
I’d rather be waterboarded than vote for John McCain. McCain has betrayed conservatism at nearly every turn in his career and is definitely in bed with the illegals. The left and the so called conservatives already love his traitorous carcass!
I wish that the WOT people would understand that securing our borders is completely a part of the war. Oh sure he wants to reach out to us, but it will be with a One-Way sign pointed from Mexico to America.
McVain considers himself a Conservative because he’s 2 degrees right of Karl Marx. Hey little Johnny, just TRY and convince the guys you abandoned in Nam to vote for you! So IF McCain does win the whole shabang then we will have 2 Soros candidates—the Dem and McCain.
“It shows one thing: I’m the conservative leader who can unite the party,” the Arizona senator said in a brief interview with The Associated Press
TOTAL BS! There is NO way McCain can unite the Republican party. Like I would unite with a traitor to our soldiers left behind in Vietnam.
The Ass-Hat in his speech last night thanked the people of Pensacola for taking care of his family when he was away, during Viet Nam. He conveniently leaves out what happened to this family when he got back. He dumped them!
One thing to remember, the Election isn’t over yet.
Current delegate count after Florida:
Magic Number 1,191
McCain -97
Romney- 74
Huckabee-29
Paul-6
Giuliani-2
McCain has 97 of 1191 delegate. NOT EVEN 10%.
The media has been fawning all over this guy and they got their man selected, didn’t they? And they are just gushing all over the cable news channels. They’re just so in love with Captain McQweeg. Mark my words, though, this guy is going to be raving about strawberries before this campaign is done.
I sure hope that Romney roars back on Super Tuesday and McCain’s own McCain-Feingold bill prevents him from the necessary funds. Romeny’s speech last night was great and in comparison to McCain’s speech a night and day difference. He’s right about Washington, Reps and Dems alike, that is for certain.
Crazy. The little peacock won, changing everything I thought about this election. Romney is a weak candidate, but McCain hasn’t a chance in the general election, and it would ultimately make little difference who he runs against. He’s the same, or worse. Maybe it’s time to withdraw and regroup.
The Republican voters in Florida (registered) voted for Mitt Romney 36% to 34%…Rudy will endorse McCain today and drop out of the race.
Ron Paul will endorse Osama bin Laden tomorrow.
McCain is nothing more than a Democrat sitting on the Republican side of the aisle!!! Which, if the current trend continues, means we will have a Dem for president after November. However, it is still early enough and close enough on the Republican side to change the course. Mitt would not have been my first choice (Fred was but he is no longer a contender) but he is closer to being a Republican than McCain is!!! Mitt may be weak but he is far better than sending McCain as our representative for president.
Yes Rhod, it is time to regroup. I think Bush has done a lot of harm to the Republican party base this second term. He is not today the man I voted for 3 years ago!!! There are a lot of Republicans that are desperately grabbing for straws instead of sticking to their conservative values. If they thought having a Republican House, Senate and President was bad, wait until it all goes Democrat.
PS………..Can we write in Toby Keith for President?!?!?!?! He obviously believes in this country!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hehehehehehe
How is this possible ? HOw can all these people be so stupid ?
For one people were showing up at the polls as independants and switching there affiliation on the spot. If there ever was a time when the fix was in, this is it.
If the donks gave their nomination to Kucinich he could beat McCain. But, at least, with Kucinich you know what you are getting. With McCain, its whatever fits best into his current agenda.
Either way if McCain get the nomination we don’t have a prayer.
Rhod mentioned ‘regrouping’, how, with whom, a third party candidate ? We are like the old Nash rambler transmission we are broken and stuck in 2nd gear.
Too bad, Toby Keith is a democrat.
I will NOT vote for McCain. He reminds me too much of the Brain from Pinky and the Brain. (Try to take over the world.)
If he were to pick someone tall and lanky for his vp, they would be Pinky and the Brain! And I like Pinky a heck of a lot better.
I think Bush fell into the Nixon trap. He tried to please everyone and with the dummycraps owning both the house and senate, he had no choice. These last few years have been atrocious and I just can’t believe how bad everyone has been. Don’t just blame Bush–look what he had to work with. I blame the whole crew.
McCain is crazy. He is not conservative, yet he is not really liberal. He is just nuts. His only consistancies are his ego, his temper and his inconsistancy. He does tend toward socialism and globalism. And he does seem to have a grudge against the Constitution.
We are early in the primaries, but they are going to be coming fast and furious now. Perhaps the Red States will come through and McCain will not win the nomination. One thing that really bothers me is that McCain has been endorsed by several prominent ex-POWs including MOH winner Bud Day. Many other ex-POWs think of McCain almost like the Swift Boat vetrans think of John Kerry.
I wish we conservatives could regroup, but right now we have no leader. We have been leaderless since the end of the Contract with America from Newt Gingrich. There certainly is no Ronald Reagan type on the horizon. I am looking at a dim 4 years ahead.
I am buying more ammo. Also another rifle even though I have a bunch. It is just a method of coping with this horrible election season.

You need to think about buying 8″ PVC pipe and fittings, cosmolene, and plastic bags, too…
Google “Ragnar Benson”
The United States is dying from the inside, infected by the organisms from the shigellosis party and amoebic dysentery party, we conservatives can’t whittle enough plugs to staunch the outflow.
Nobody raised an eyebrow nor complaint when Komrad Sanders established the Congressional Progressive Caucus, now we have 70 in the House that are certified members, one, the speaker of the House, the highest-ranking woman in the history of the U.S. Government. They are in control. Komrad Sanders has moved into the Senate to further spread the malaise there, as if it weren’t already present, yet nobody questions the practice of having or keeping Communists inside the Congress. The good people of Florida have overwhelmingly endorsed John McCain who IMO, if not for his POW status would have likely followed J.F. Kerry’s lead in his Communist collaboration years sooner. Now he has the chance to officially come out of the closet instead of just hinting at his agenda. I have this mental image of John McCain on the bridge of the USS United States going down from astern with him at the bow looking for the Chinese shoreline with his bullhorn shouting “full speed ahead we’re making good time”. By dropping out before all the states have any say in the process these candidates have given us no viable options. Sorry for all who voted absentee early for Thompson in a wasted vote, you did the honorable thing under the circumstances, the rest of us don’t even have that luxury.
McCain is merely the gateway to all the things we already despise. I might need to violate my first rule of citizenship, and not vote in the election. It’s unprinciple to reward this guy with my vote. I made that mistake with Bush….who, by the way, paved the way for this debacle.
Welcome to MexAmeriCanada. Of course if the two donks, either one, is elected we will have the same thing.
So what does it matter who you vote for.
Obama said all Illegals should have drivers’ Licenses, Hillary just won’t admit to it…McCain’s new advisor Juan Dingleberry, promotes Mexico First policy,… Can anyone tell me when are we ever going to get a Candidate that says, Enough of this bullshit, and “Its America first MF.”
Maybe McCain can get Geraldo Rivera to be his point man when MCain goes back into the closet.
It has been said this year we will elect a Jimmy
Carter and we have one in Obama.My guess Hillary
is toast and Obama is coming on like gang busters
here in Mormon Country, Obama is da man. As for
The Republicans,sorry to say they could run Elvis
and they will still lose,don’t forget the pres is only one man we held their feet to the fire on
Shamnesty and we can do it again.we can make life
a living hell on who ever is in the white house,
the I NET AND PHONE CALLs and you can bet your
sweet A$$ I would take McCain over Obama mama!!!
But that ain’t going to happen!!!The only way I
can see him screwing up if It wasn’t a joke about
Opra for VP then he is dead in the water!!
Traitor and Manchurian Candidate McCain Comes In F…
Bookmarked your post over at Blog Bookmarker.com!
Rhod, yes, this is the worst election year that I can ever remember. For one thing I never voted for a person that pulled out of the race. It is such a weird feeling. I know it is because I voted early but I think it still could have happened even if we had waited till yesterday (the 29th).
Darth, “Ron Paul will endorse Osama bin Laden tomorrow”….LOL too funny. I guess I shouldn’t laugh at that but it is so hard to take Ron Paul seriously. Good one Darth.
I love your quote: “I’d rather be waterboarded than vote for John McCain.”
That would make a great T-shirt or bumpersticker.
John, augh that’s right we still have to face the VP he picks. oh man this is like living a very bad dream and not being able to wake up. No wait, we are the ones awake and everyone else that wants Ron Paul, McCain etc. are asleep.
Mark it was sort of close but not enough to keep McCain from getting my State of Florida. waaaaaa
Lynn, I didn’t know that, thanks. I think I heard that about Tim McGraw too and his wife Faith Hill. It used to be country stars were almost always Republicans.
Tom oh my gosh, Bud Day likes him. sigh not good. But yes a ton of ex POW’s are speaking out about McCain and want people to know the truth. Thanks Tom for the information.
Jack, it felt awful when Thompson pulled out of the race. I never had that happen before. Like a huge THUD. And yes my vote was wasted and that ticks me off too. The same with Nick feeling like that too.
Rhod I would love to regroup so much. Then come in like gang busters and hopefully people would wake up to reality about what has been happening.
Mark, I bet Geraldo Rivera loves McCain with his favoring the illegal’s. double darn anyway.
Tincan Sailor, that is amazing that they would like Obama where you are. This is awful news. I guess there are a ton of Democrats there.
Don, thank you so much. It was just off the top of my head, use it if you like.
