McCain Supporters: He's Wasting Time

CNN:

While the Democratic presidential candidates are duking it out on the campaign trail, Sen. John McCain is trying to fill up his campaign coffers. But some supporters fear he's not making the most of his time.

Just back from his eighth trip to Iraq, McCain returned to the campaign trail Monday in Chula Vista,California, with last week's words from Osama bin Laden in hand.

Smart move on his part. Why get in the middle of that nasty brawl between Hillary and Obama when you can just sit back and let them self destruct. Then you look like a saint and they look like monsters. For him to do ANYTHING to interrupt this infighting would be a waste of his energies, and a distraction from their destruction. Maybe Al Gore should just run with Bill Clinton as his vice president so we can wash ourselves of this whole mess and win the election.

Abramoff is to DeLay as Iseman is to McCain. Where the hell is Iseman? Perhaps a Botox party at Katherine Harris' lair?

Yes, it will sound harsh but while Iraqi John was incarcerated in Hanoi after bombing civilians from above, 55,000 thousand American lives were lost. For what and Why? We lost that aggressive war yet Iraqi John refuses to acknowledge Iraq is a parallel with Vietnam. What is up with war mongers, like McCain and his OLD ideas of what is correct. The man has lost perspective and now that he is entering his final years I ponder, does he give a damn about our grandchildren? Now I haven't even mentioned that three times in the past he acknowledged a lack of economic savvy, why the hell elect would you even consider having eight more years of Bush's policies. Will admit one thing though, I will miss the slurred speech and dancing of Bush but there again, maybe Iraq John will take his place for laughs!!

A lot can happen in a few months. It was just a year ago that all you repukes were proclaiming the nation's first drag queen president Rudy Julie-Andrews would be a shoo in.

McKeating5 will say anything and has flip flopped on every issue.
The only thing for certain about McCrazy is he wants more war.

Democrats get that and what ever sour grapes that have come to fruition as result of the in fighting between the Obama and Clinton camps will be quickly forgotten in face of continuing the failed polices which are the standard of the repukelietard party.

P.S. a few days after McInsane proclaimed the ineptitude of Bush's failed Iraq policy a total success there is a renewed fighting. Not from Al Qaida who McFlipflop sees as the cause of all woes in Iraq but from the same people the current misadministration has been bribing with billions of borrowed dollars.

Which one of you repukes is willing to have your taxes raised to fight for McBomb's continuation of a policy that has not made us safer and is a still a total failure.

We have spend a trillion dollars to get back to step one.
Time for a change!!!!

MY FELLOW DEMOCRATS:

YES, YOU!

Obama's supporters, as well as Hillary's. The only way this will be resolved without any lingering resentment is for both to be on the same ticket. As to who would lead it, that is something both candidates and the elders should determine! I believe this party is self-destructing and the only way to stop it and win in November is by uniting and putting an end to the bickering and bitterness.

No matter who's leading the ticket, every democrat should rally around them both!

It seems to me this would be better than the alternative!

Who's with me?

I am not surprised. I am a die-hard democrat who will for the first time in my life vote for a Republican if Senator Hillary Clinton is not the nominee. As a matter of fact, I am voting against any candidate that did not support Senator Clinton. I will make my voice heard. Rush Limbaugh has been right about one thing-there is no loyalty in the Democratic party-just take a look at Kennedy, Dodd, and Richardson. The three wise men who became Judas. Do you really believe if the media had released the Minister Jeremiah Wright tapes during the Iowa caucuses, Senator Obama would even be in this race?

I, too, would rather vote for McCain than Obama and here are four reasons:

1. Obama Lies About Nafta:

2. Obama Lies About Rev. Wright

3. Obama Lies Again

4. Obama’s Embellishments

Practically everyone that I know who support Clinton will NOT vote for Obama for the following reasons:
1) Inexperience

2) Acts and talks the most like a typical corrupt and demagogic politician

3) Panders the most - yet has the audacity to attack opponents regarding pandering

4) We do not share his beliefs and values that he hides from American people but shows up in who he looks up to (e.g., Wright).

5) Claims to have specific solutions - but everyone of them is prefaced by maybe as he claims to be the pragmatist to get on both sides of the issue.

6) All rhetoric no substance

7) Not yet fully vetted - and I don’t think he will be because the press is so pro-Obama.
8) Simply does not have the resume and track record that is real and true to be President. Biggest example, claim that he is a uniter not a divider - we’ve heard this before from someone who actually had some track record as governor in Texas, now we have someone saying and promising the same thing but with zero, nada, tack record to prove that he can do it.

9) He has to most liberal voting record in the Senate.

10) He is a double talker and biggest flip flopper.

11) Rezko, Present votes in IL Senate, Wright, Farrakan.

12) He is endorsed by the establishment (Kerry, Kennedy, etc.)

The Hillary voters won’t vote for McCain out of spite but rather out of prudence. Obama is totally unfit to be president — he has three years of mediocre experience in the Senate and his spiritual adviser is a racist nitwit who hates America. Obama’s appeal is limited to anti-American “progressives” and African-Americans. Just about everyone else will vote for McCain, whose patriotism and courage has been severely tested and proven beyond doubt.
