McCAIN: I'll stop wasteful spending by Congress and restore Americans' trust in their government. I'm John McCain and I approve this message.

So why have you waited until now to stop wasteful spending by Congress, McCain? Why didn't you do something when you and your pals were in charge? FactCheck.org takes apart claims by "Crooked Talker John McCain" here.

Looks like the NYT is puffing up again for McCan’t. They really, really want him to win.

I voted for Thompson yesterday. I think it is noteworthy that Huckabee probably grabbed not more than a few of McCain’s hoped-for Democratic voters. Listening to some interviews of folks voting yesterday, I heard one voter who, until very recently, was going to vote for Hillary, but went for Huckabee.

I only heard radio ads (in the Lansing, Michiga area) from Romney and Huckabee, so frankly it’s not surprising to me that McCain didn’t finish better.

Fred Dalton Thompson is our best hope of winning the election and steering this great nation in a positive direction. We need to support him with our time and donations to keep him competative. Otherwise he will get pushed to the wayside the way Duncan Hunter has been, If they aren’t in the top Four they get barred from the debates and from the media spotlight.

Fred might not be perfect, but he is our only hope.

Go FRED!

I noted that last night.

Oh yeah Michelle, and you’re one of those people who doesn’t want to slow down the honors class so everyone can keep up…

“I think the Democratic Party is a fine party, and I have no problems with it, in their views and their philosophy.” – John McCain

Actual McCain quote from 2004!

No amount of spinning by McCain can erase this simple fact: a state with 3-4 times the votes of New Hampshire, and a far more Republican voter turnout, gave Romney a decisive win last night, with the largest margin of victory so far in the primaries. So if McCain can’t spin the loss to his arch-enemy, he’ll dodge it, saying it doesn’t matter ‘cuz he’s going to win SC and still keep trying to convince us he’s a conservative. So much for the “Straight Talk Express”…

And one other thing while we are piling on McCain. Would everyone who disagrees with him please stop blathering over how they respect him for his service to our country?

Yes, he was a Navy pilot. Yes, he was a POW. Yes, he suffered mightily. And yes, we admire his courage and thank him for fighting for us. But we do not need to lick his boots to be allowed to disagree with his policy. It’s very easy. Repeat after me: “Senator, you are wrong on [insert issue here].”

As my USMC Drill Instructor used to say: Don’t thank me. The government thanks me twice a month.

When will people wake up and realize McCan’t is a liberal?

1. He’s against tax cuts
2. He believes in man-made global warming
3. He’s against so-called torture
4. He sponsored the McCain-Kennedy bill
5. He’s against free speech with McCain Fiengold

I’m sure I missed several other items/issues.

So what part of him is actually “conservative”?

Forget the Drive-bys. Listen to”El-Rushbo” young Skywalkers; he sets us straight. Romney or Thompson equals zero RINO’s on the way to the Republican nomination.

blues: actually it is the media that are looking like Abbott and Costello. The big losers: The Media. Why? Cause they want the primaries over by one or two states instead of letting the process allow the outcome. THEY want to predict the outcome. They are the Abbotts and Costellos. Look who’s won, he has momentum now, oh.. look who’s won over here, he has momentum now, oh look who’s won, will he finally have momentum?

All the media marketing of Huck and McPain has not really given them the ‘momentum’ the media talking heads had hoped. How much they had wished they could change the face of the Republican party to Huckleberry or McPain. Now, we will wait and see what the primary process concludes moving on to February. We will see if the Abbotts and Costellos can decide who is the frontrunner after February 5. My Bet, they can’t…

Michelle,

Do you think you could find a more appropriate picture of McCan’t. This one is staring to creep me out. Maybe a picture of a horses rear, or perhaps pond scum?

Hunter, Hunter, Hunter. Don’t let the LSM decide who our RINO candidate is going to be.
