Thread Name: BS: Something 'Strange' about McCain?
Subject: RE: BS: Something 'Strange' about McCain?
Bobert, I don't think McCain "is just like George Bush". Sorry, I can't walk that road with you.
I wouldn't vote for McCain. But I see a mile's worth of difference between him and Bush, ideologically.
And Bobert, you are looking more and more like a single issue candidate, except your single issue seems to be "anybody but the Republicans".
There are a couple Republicans I could support before I supported more of the same ole status quo from the Democratic Obama/Clinton money laundering machinery. Sadly, none of them are running for prez this time around.
MN's representative Jim Ramstad is one--he is retiring from the US House this year. Maybe he'll make a run in 4 more.
How about a woman? Susan Collins of Maine would get my vote before Hilary would.
I guess there aren't too many people who remember Teddy Roosevelt's excellent tactic, used when Taft (speaking of freakin' losers!) beat him for the Republican nomination in 1912. He pulled his delegates out of the convention, bolted and formed the Progressive Party.
You think Obama has the guts to do that if he loses to Clinton? He certainly has plenty of money to do it.
