The idiot wing of the Republican Party, has spoken again. If they lose one more brain cell they won’t have any friends left.

John McCain is Bob Dole minus the charm, conservatism and youth.

#16, I was getting ready to write something like this, but that quote says it so much better. ~~Dole ‘96~~ McCain ‘08 is a guaranteed loss for the Republican party after which the party leaders will still be scratching their heads and wondering what happened. Clueless …no longer just a movie starring Alicia Silverstone.

FYUI up in Baton Rouge, a vast majority of the uncomitted prolife were THompsons former supporters. Fred should have stayed in – he would have won. Too bad he got in so late that the only advisors left were bad ones, like the ones that failed to tell him he had a shot a winning La, and then banging it up in the debate tonight, which would have boosted the heck out of his 13% he had foing in before he withdrew. Couple that with Huckabees abandoning Fla, and Fred all of a sudden gets well within striking distance of the polls.

Again, Fred blew it by not declaring on Memorial, or 4th of July – all the good people were swept up by then. There’s only so much you can accomplish with 5th rate staff.

Ann Coulter today on McCain (who was part of the Keating Five Scandal as well as the Senate Gang of 14—he likes his gangs):

John McCain is Bob Dole minus the charm, conservatism and youth. Like McCain, pollsters assured us that Dole was the most “electable” Republican. Unlike McCain, Dole didn’t lie all the time while claiming to engage in Straight Talk.

Of course, I might lie constantly too, if I were seeking the Republican presidential nomination after enthusiastically promoting amnesty for illegal aliens, Social Security credit for illegal aliens, criminal trials for terrorists, stem-cell research on human embryos, crackpot global warming legislation and free speech-crushing campaign-finance laws.

I might lie too, if I had opposed the Bush tax cuts, a marriage amendment to the Constitution, waterboarding terrorists and drilling in Alaska.

And I might lie if I had called the ads of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth “dishonest and dishonorable.”

I refuse to believe the mainstream media’s propaganda that their sweetheart, McCain, is the GOP man. That is what they want you to believe. They also wanted people to believe that Gore and Kerry won over Bush in two elections—so that we would be in angst and despair.

Florida will be the test of how Republicans vote. There is a surge for Romney now in the polls and the primary is the 29th.

I don’t know if endorsements really matter, but Senator Cochran of Mississippi endorsed Mitt Romney—he was for Thompson. Tancredo endorsed Mitt Romney—which is, to me, bigger news than Hunter’s endorsement (regarding immigration).

Stick with the established system, boys and girls, and grit your teeth and hold your nose if you have to when pushing the putton for the Republican canidate.

Why elect a republican who is really a democrap? Why not let the democrap win the election? Then if everything tanks, the democraps will be holding the bag. I will not give up my conservative values just to have an “R” in the White House. I cannot support McCain or the Huckster.

SCARY!!! It is bad enough that a socialist like McCan’t wins a nmination but to think that the conspirocy theorist are so prevelent in the Republican party to give Ron Paul a second place finish.

Has KOS invaded the Republican party?

Looks like a scout uniform. I recognize the merit badge sash. Looks like an old Eagle Scout, possibly a scoutmaster.

et,
I think the problem was he organization from the get go, plan and simple. Too damn bad too, he was the only true conservative(exception Tancredo, included Hunter until he threw his support to Hunkofpoo).

Amazing just amazing McAmnesty is a carrier of the Republican banner…wow. That guy is further left than H. Rotten C.
Looks like we need a new conservative party…the RINO’s sure aren’t the answer.

Another site is reporting that Thompson would have won all 47 delegates had he stayed in the race a few more hours.

If Fred had any political horse sense he would now be in second place trailing only Mitt in delegate count. So I have to wonder, is Fred that stupid or was his staff that bad?
