Quote from dddooo:

McCain has traded in his Maverick badge for the status of pro-war Bush lapdog. Bad trade if you ask me, I am highly doubtful this will bode well with voters in 2008. He did not make new friends among rightwingers and he alianated a significant number of dems/independends who used to have a lot of respect for him. Just like John Kerry, McCain is damaged goods.

Quote from dddooo:

I voted for Menendez here in NJ and I did it with a heavy heart, I certainly blame Corzine for naming Menendez as his successor.

But of course in light of what has happened during the last 6 years, Kean's appeal that we need him, a repubican to fight corruption sounded like a sick joke to me and other NJ voters. Besides as you well know the elections were nationalized, the corruption in Washingon was of immensly bigger concern to NJ voters than the corruption in Trenton.

I thought he was being sent to DC not Trenton. The Dems had a hayday of the corruption charge, and rightly so, but if they think they are immune, then things will get better for the Reps every day.

Actually which ever party is in power is vulnerable to the corruption charge, so now it is the Dems turn.

Of course, sending a republican to DC to fight corruption did not sound like such a great idea at the time, you know after six years of the most corrupt republican administration and 12 years of equally corrupt republican congress in this country's history.
 
Quote from Trader5287:

Listen Reps -- this guy is your last best chance and every minute you waste on somebody else is another nail in the party's coffin. You lost the middle - - the talk shows are correct on this.

Don't even think of Rudy, Frist, Romney or any of these other Tier 2 and 3 "brittle" possibilities. Every one of them has fatal flaws in their vitaes or temperment.

So smarten up.

Based on the recent election outcome, the American public ( except the 37 Percentile "IM-moral minority") despise the RepubliKKKlan party. The devisive and bigoted politics of the RepubliKKKlan right has fractured the coalition that put them in power. Real conservatives, the ones against big govt. and for fiscal responsibility are fed up with right wing religious nonesense. Unless they can get control of the party and revert the RepubliKKKlan agenda to the Republican one, the current RepubliKKlan party is doomed.

Bush won a slim majority the second time around because of the Hispanic vote. This vote will not be forthcoming in any of the future American elections. :D
 
I have thought for a long time that McCain is a deeply flawed candidate who will be lucky to get out of the primaries. Much of his popularity rests on an adoring media, which likes him because he is always ready to trash other republicans or carry the media's water on issues like campaign finance. Once he is in a race against a real Democrat, they will drop him like a bad habit. The media liked Bob Dole as well. Until he got the nomination.

McCain has serious problems with three of the five factions that make up the modern republican party, viz. the evangelical/family values group, the low tax/opportunity society faction and the Pat Buchanan paleoconservatives. He would have the support of the country club/big business republicans and the neo-cons. In short, he would have the profile of Bush Sr., except that McCain has gone out of his way to antagonize a lot of other republicans while Bush did the opposite.

McCain is pro choice which means he will do badly in the bible belt which means the repubs will probably run some unknown lightweight against hillary. in that case hillary is your next president.
