Daddy Yankee endorsement: Another pathetic McCain pander
Can someone, anyone, in the McCain camp stop him from self-immolation? Can the open-borders GOP establishment drive a bigger wedge between the conservative base and the GOP ticket?
Last week, it was the RNC ad touting McCain’s shamnesty superiority over Obama. Today, it’s McCain goofily, stupidly, standing with Puerto Rican singer Daddy Yankee for the all-important reggaeton vote while teenagers squealed. Celeb-u-pocrisy, anyone? The singer, whose real name is Ramon Ayala, singled out McCain’s sponsorship of the shamnesty bill as the reason for his endorsement:
“He’s been a fighter for the Hispanic community and I know that, me personally, I’m choosing the best candidate, because he’s been a fighter for the immigration issues,” Ayala said. “So, for me, he’s the best guy to lead this nation.”
Desperately seeking a coolness boost, McCain lapped it up:
“I just wanna say thank you, Daddy Yankee,” McCain said.
At the urging of McCain, Daddy Yankee hugged and kissed many of the girls on the cheek and shook hands with the guys. Meanwhile, McCain, holding the microphone, had a huge grin on his face.
Later, Daddy Yankee took off his sunglasses while the Central High choir sang the Star-Spangled Banner. Daddy Yankee is known for the song “Gasolina,” which falls under the genre “reggaeton,” a blend of hip-hop, dance music and reggae.
Many in the press corps joked about the intersection of the song (with its lyrics, when translated into English, are: “She likes gasoline,” he says. “Give me more gasoline!” a woman responds) and McCain’s energy policy. In fact, Washington Wire is told the phrase has nothing to do with the traditional meaning of gasoline.
Daddy Yankee accompanied McCain on the plane from Phoenix to Sacramento. He talked to reporters briefly on the plane before taking off, saying that he first met the Arizona senator at a Time magazine party a few years back. McCain aide Brooke Buchanan said “Gasolina” was McCain’s “favorite.”
Daddy Yankee has been an outspoken critic of immigration enforcement:
Daddy Yankee, the Puerto Rican pop star, apparently does: When he performed with Snoop Dogg last month, in front of 18,000 fans in Los Angeles, he wore onstage his “Alto a la HR4437″ T-shirt (Stop House Resolution 4437), the bill that would make it criminal to help illegal immigrants, make it a felony (rather than a civil infraction) for them to be here and add more walls along the Mexican-American border.
How do you say “gag” in Spanish?

Hint to McCain camp: How about paying a little more attention to the Daniella Bolognas of the world and a little less attention to obscure reggaeton singers?

GOP=Whig
The Republican Party under GWB seems intent on political suicide. Pandering to citizens of other countries illegally in our country while telling us we must be vigilantes if we object to illegal aliens ignoring our borders and laws. Mel Martinez was RNC Chairman to ensure an open borders candidate in ‘08. The cheap labor express will be kept running, regardless of the consequences, to party or country.
GOP-RIP
Juan McClone, an echo, not a choice.

I think the idea is that conservatives would see, among many other attributes: his 82% lifetime conservative rating and Obamas most liberal senator title, McCain’s pro life, Obamas pro baby killing, Mccains service record, Obamas 20 year membership in the damn America church, etc, etc… and understand what to do. The idea was that it would be so glaringly obvious by now that the issue would be dead and buried and it is with most genuine conservatives. Especially after Saddleback.
The other explanation as to why McCain is still making nods to the center is that every Hillary voter he can get he is not only gaining one for himself but pulling one away from Obama. Here:
So the thesis is: Get as many Clinton voters as possible and conservatives will be smart enough to see what is going on. I don’t think he was counting on the “little bus conservatives” seeing some nefarious plot in every nod from someone like “Daddy Yankee” when he was formulating his thesis though.
not this time. I’ll be voting third party.
Bill, I can’t see how you continue to defend this idiot? Mcamensty is doing everything he can to tell conservatives to screw off. Even some of the other McCain supporters here are starting to tire of his BS. I understand your “obama is worse” justification, but geez. At what point will you say, “that’s it, mcamensty will no longer p*ss down my back and tell me it is raining”? Is there a point for you? Dollars to doughnuts, mcamensty, if he wins and gets to appoint a SCOTUS member, will choose, at best, a hispanic centrist who champions hispanic civil rights (why change his pandering ways after elected?). Not a conservative as you hope. Look, I want to be wrong on him b/c the stakes are high, but I feel very strongly he will screw us every second he is in office.
Me too. I plan to vote for Pastor Chuck Baldwin of the Constitution Party. The 2 party system is obviosuly flawed when an entire voting block (conservatives) has no representation. The gop is beyond repair for conservatives on the illegal immigration issue. So time for me to move on.
Best argument for Lieberman I’ve seen. It’s so unfortunate conservatives can’t be civil like the liberals. From NYmag:
And Wonkette, the Washington gossip blog, turned the hatred of the senator into something like a literary extreme sport: “It’s like two quarter-pound stools of alien space s*** (poo) crashed into a toxic-waste dumpster in Stamford, Connecticut, f****d (copulated), and out came their mutilated, blood-soaked carcass of a baby rat-child, Senator Joseph Lieberman.”
You’re right, txvet, except, that’s old John McCain, not new John McCain. The new guy told President Bush he should veto the measure that would have barred the CIA from using waterboarding and other “harsh interrogation techniques” (read: torture).
You’re an idiot!!! The best plan you have seen is bush’s amensty plan? Shows how much research you bothered to do. Well, “my friend”, let me clue you in since you are apparently too d*mn lazy to research it yourself (people like you is what is wrong wiht his nation).
1. DRY UP THE MAGNETS that draw and keep them here. No jobs. No welfare. No entitlements. No anchor babies. No hope of citizenship. Enforce the laws on the books. These are the reasons they come in the first place and stay here wiht impunity.
2. ATTRITION of the illegals here. Once the magnets are gone, it will become unproductive to stay here. Over time, they will self deport since there is no way to live without money flowing in. It will take several years at least before there is a dent, but the problem did not happen over night and it can not be resolved over night. The additional benefit, is it allows for an orderly departure, and for unscrupulous employers of illegals to obtain and train replacements for their work force.
See, it is not an either or situation as politicains have fooled YOU into believing. Try doing a little research on your own next time a politician tries to jam something down your throat that just seems like an illogical solution. Jesus, you might want to see the statistics around the 1986 amnesty(”last amnesty ever, we promise”) before you support such a ridiculous solution. It will only aggravate the problem. And waving a majic wand and making them legal is chicken sh*t, not a solution.
Well said. I thought I was the only one. I’m in the same camp as you. With all his warts, I’m still voting for McCain. Unfortunately, this new “endorsement” still gives me pause. He has a golden opportunity and sometimes he just has these miscues.
Oh, and the triple word tongue twister of the day has to be: Tyrannical Troika of Trogdolytes. That definitely doesn’t roll off the tongue!
yes, I know his “life time CU” score is 82%. Frankly, that argument leaves me unimpressed.
Did you know his rating for
2007 = 80%
2006 = 65%
2005 = 80%
2004 = 72%
2003 = 80%
2002 = 78%
2001 = 68%
2000 = 81%
1999 = 77%
1998 = 68%
I guess you get the idea. My point is that if you graph these, AND you graph it, you might see some how it changes with his prospects.
Of course,
Graham’s lifetime CU (LCU) is 90.39%
Martinez’s LCU is 86.67% (better than McCain!)
And, if a candidate’s LCU rating is the last word, lets not forget Sen Craig, with his 93.32% rating.
Ok, I’ll bite:
The Clinton votes then are probably approximately 32% (2%+27%+3%), so lets be generous and say 50% of the Clintonistas switch to McDisingenuos, that means McMathematician is jeopardising 40%-50% of his base for a 16% gain??
Actually, I must confess, I simplfied the numbers and assumed, for example that all Liberal/Moderates were for Clinton, and that McCain’s base was only about 2/3rds of the Conservatives.
When you actually work out the percentages, it is much worse.
Tell me again how happy we should be for this

That “Daddy Yankee” said something nice about him is not telling “conservatives to screw off”. Indeed, it essentially signifies nothing.
That “Daddy Yankee” said something nice about McCain is not piss or rain. Really, please take a cold look at what you are getting worked up about this time.
I will take that bet. Seriously, that is what I am most confident about McCain on. He has promised to pick judges like Alito and Roberts. Obama has promised to pick judges like Souter and Ginsburg. I like my constitution, that is why I can’t accept an Obama presidency.
The alternative to electing McCain and holding his feet to the fire is electing Obama and having absolutely no say anymore and yes, the stakes are high.
Remember the gang of 14? It’s an empty promise he knows he will never be able to keep. You’re crazy if you think the dems will allow a vote for a true conservative.
Hey Biiillllll! Bill Grraaannnntt!:
What about this?
My Point:
You keep making the statement:
Which I contend is wishfulfillment. How exactly are you going to hold his feet to the fire?
Note how all he!l had to break loose before the Rs in congress would stand up to GWB on illegal immigration? That happened not because they didn’t hear the rank & file yelling “enforce the law”, but because it had to reach the level where political calculus told them that standing up to the head of the party would not necessarily be suicidal.
Now, if McCain is head of the party, as the President is, when he’s an “R”, and Congress is close, or a little more “D” than “R”, what type of firestorm will be needed to stop immigration “reform” from happening? How much harder will it be to get the Congresscritters to listen when they are going against legislation that is near&dear to their leader’s heart?
And please don’t tell me how we have to stop the OBummer. That has no bearing on my question. In effect, it is a different version of “pass the comprehensive roof reform bill so so we can stop the one corner from leaking” argument that thoise people who told us we are bigots for wanting the laws on the books enforced.

Man I wish I had thought up some pseudonym way back when…
Leads back to the very thing we are talking about. I contend that “Daddy Yankee” endorsing John McCain is not a significant event.
By doing what I should have been doing with Bush. Getting involved and joining organizations that are united to oppose specific actions that I also oppose.
The amnesty bill was stopped by people flooding the switchboards at the house and senate, filling their e-mail boxes with furious and surprising our politicians because for once we weren’t behaving like complacent sheep. See, not wishing, getting organized and getting in their faces.
Exactly the same as before. The scenario that you outlined existed the last time.
We have to stop the OBummer.
No, it is the last best hope at stopping it. It also represents the best shot at adhering to my principles and being a good citizen. The alternative is capitulation which I find unacceptable.

Only with McCain’s blessing, Bill.
Not that this will matter one iota because we only see what we want to see here but:
I know, None of this could possibly be the case because he got the nod from some twit named “Daddy Yankee” which outweighs everything because you want to see it that way.
Bill,
No time right now to more than skim comments, but 1 thing caught my eye:
In Scripture, it is often argued that offense is taken where none is meant. I think this is the case here.
At the time I wrote the comment, I felt somewhat as a man in a crowd, trying to get your attention. We’ve been having a nice civil discussion, and I thought you mistook my point.
It was simply a way of portraying with the written word, a man standing in a huge room waving his arms yelling: “Biilllll, I’m over heerrreeee!” The multiple letters has long been a literary device to simulate calling out for someone’s notice. If I offended you with that, I’m very sorry.
While on the subject, (and I have 3 min before I have to leave for my meeting…) let me clear up a previous misuse of your handle.
In a previous comment on another thread I wrote: ”
LouBill Grant. ”You then accused me of some dastardly deed & making free w/your handle. I didn’t comment at the time, but I believe you confused me with another poster. Calling the use of substituting an illustrative, but actual 1st name, then
strikingit out and placing the correct 1st name following it isn’t re-writing a person’s name, but simulates a “slip of the tongue”. I found this out on one of the other boards as I was researching blogging to hold Dad’s place in political discussions.Why “Lou Grant”? Well, I admit a mild insult. My daughter, growing up, was for a time addicted to the “Mary Tyler Moore Show”, w/only 1TV, we all watched it. You remind me of the Lou Grant character: someone who means well but won’t let facts intrude on his opinion once he’s decided a course of action. ;-p
Please note, this isn’t unkindly meant: he has some very good qualities, such as loyalty and perserverance.
Times up, I must start my meeting. See you later.
Mark my words, he will choose a middle of the road, at best, nominee. He also said he “gets it” on amnesty, yet he is out there promising amensty again. Oh sure he mentions border security, but what has he done or supported to reach that end? Nothing. You put way too much faith in a politician. SCOTUS nominees is the carrot (and aobut he only one) he holds out there for conservatives). I don’t trust him or any carrer politician, but again, if I have to have him as POTUS I sure hope you are correct.
I wasn’t offended pal. It just isn’t the best idea I ever had to be putting that out there. Thanks for your consideration though.
You have to admit, you are pretty dastardly.
You are very free to point out where my facts are wrong and point me in the right direction. Just make sure that your facts are the fact.

He promised a conservative as opposed to a full on Trotskyite that his opponent has promised.
Me too. We have to get him in first.
Bill, do you really mean that? It works well enough to see results of the Obamanation’s Administration!
(1) you sound suspiciously close to those who told me in during the primaries for GWB that just because he acted in a certain way in TX, since his promises were different in the national run, and they had no crystal ball, we could be sure GWB’d govern differently as President. That didn’t work out very well, save for a few noteworthy exceptions.
(2) do you get up every morning and drop a hammer on your foot? Well, perhaps you take a big swig of drain cleaner?
No? Well, why not? Do you have a crystal ball that tells you gravity is still working every morning? Or the H2SO4 in the drain cleaner is still caustic?
My point is you yourself have said, (paraphrasing) those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it. Why ignore McCain’s history?
Instead, let’s flood the RNC with emails, FAXes, telegrams, letters, packages of 2faced coins,
and tell them to go to a brokered convention, or face throwing-over the Conservative vote. Tell them that a candidate who says, when confronted with the situation, if one of his empanelled henchman said “X” and he (JM) finds that it is true, he’ll tell the man to leave. 2 weeks later another person brings proof, that same candidate says “he doesn’t really work for me, he’s a volunteer. So I can’t tell him to leave!” is dishonest. We shouldn’t and we won’t accept that!
After the convention, we’ll have no choice. Until then we do.
Then “D” are spending as much money on the Congressional races as in the Presidential. That’s different than what we’re doing, (as far as I know…), and different than the “D”s normal strategy. Their purpose is to cause the election of a filibuster-proof congress. I think that our time & money would be better spent on the other races. The browbeating I see is going to push a lot of No-LOTEs to stay home, where they would go and vote in the other races.
Based on John McCain’s history and his actions in the current campaign, if the “D”s carry a veto/filibuster-proof Congress, whether the President is JM or OB makes absolutely no difference! Even more upsetting, JM is so unreliable that if Congress is close, his history tells us that he’ll jump the fence to play “BMOC! The Mighty McCain, the man so staesmanlike, he’s bigger than partisanship!”
And worse, JM’s actions show he cares so little about the party, and having Conservatives come to the polls, that he steps on our collective face at almost every opportunity.
And, please don’t throw that red herring about “What, its all about your little feelings? Grow/Man up! We have more important things involved here!”
Ok, I’ll agree that there are more important things than our feelings. Maybe you could let McCain know? He seems in the dark about that — unless by that you mean that Conservative’s feelings, 60% of the voting citizenry, don’t count for as much as Johnny’s showing off. And if you are objective, that btw, is what his actions say.
There are principles. I have shown you the numbers for the Citizenry. It would cost him NOTHING to be a little Conservative. And if he understood Conservatives, he’d realize that it is actions, not empty promises that tell us what a man will do. That is why I think that your assertion that “JM’s said he’ll do X, Y, Z… so let us adults talk,” is ill-considered to say the least.
I’ve exploded the myth of his LCU ranking. Which when broken down is anything but laudable, pretty much the lowest of the “R” with Presidential aspirations. I’ve asked you to graph it, which when you do shows that when his vote could have made a difference - after the Congressional upset during Clinton Admin, he went Left like he had a rocket up his a$$! His voting record had taken up residence across the isle until the prep. phase for the 2000 primaries started, when it started meandering toward Conservatism. The only brake on his actions seemed to be what he thought he could get away with and still run for the Presidency. So what that he voted with the herd when his vote was empty. One of a block of “R”s who’s vote could stop nothing… and it looked good. Somewhat like HS GPA, where the first 3yrs of classes are the easiest, but will pad your GPA so you can “D” most of the senior classes and your GPA still comes out pretty good.
I have shown you with his own words where he thinks his party, when it is adhering to Constitutional Principles — as apposed to Socialist ones, is wrong. It has “gone down the wrong road”, but the “D”s are a “fine party, and a fine philosophy and I see nothing wrong with it” to use his turn of phrase! Twice that I know of he tried to switch parties. Once was prior to Jumpin’ Jim, where he opined that his change of party would “re-balance” Congress. He didn’t because Jumpin’ stole his thunder. The 2nd instance he tried to talk the “D”s into making him the VP nomination. Then to add insult to injury, he started out lying about the incidents. He lied: “I never met with Tom! I’ve never visited him at…”, he spat at the cameras. He repeated screeched that everytime. Everytime that is, until it turned out there was video and a paper trail of the meetings. Then it was a studdering “You misunderstood me! I never said I wasn’t there! I never had that conversation!” So, what is more likely, considering human nature? You lie about a meeting when it is harmless, but tell about it when its not? “Hey, Honey! I had a meeting at a hotel across town last night with that rich chic… but don’t worry! I didn’t sleep with her!” then think to himself: “I better not mention meetings with Republican Caucusers where we were discussed the menu for the upcoming convention! She’ll flip!”
So, no, he’s not hungry for power at any cost, no, not really! Just if he can bloody Conservatives.
I have provided data links. I didn’t want you to come to the mistaken conclusion that I was an Obomination or a Clintonista. You respond, not with data and not by answering the arguments that that data represents, but with a weak: “We must stop Obummer!”
Ok, We agree on that. But if you guys who say McCain was your last choice would put as much effort into talking the “R”s into exchanging him for a real “R” at the convention, I might find your protestations a little more credible.
BTW, you were saying previously Cap&Trade is DOA. I notice that the “R”s have added a Globalwarming Plank to the party. Gee, with the majority of the citizens either sceptical or in disbelief of the whole Globalwarming religion, why would they do that? Perhaps because McCain sees it as the next chance to “cross the isle” and show how big he is. You know, to work with those “D”s — the Liberals — who want to freeze our economy. Seems Cap&Trade isn’t as dead as we thought, hmmm? Go back and read some of my Dad’s posts about Cap&Trade. They seem positively prophetic.
Don’t be ruled by fear! The very first thing they teach at SOS is to not make a decision from fear, because while flipping a coin is 50-50, the stats for fear-based ones is 65-35, and that 65% is on the bad side!
Lunch is over! See you later!
Well said, martin.musculus!
What surprises me is how easy it is to fool Americans, which is why Bush, even after a failure in every field, going AWOL, supported by Al-Sauds, whom he declared his extended family and covered Al-Sauds’s involvement in 9/11, and included the same terorrists as “allies” in the phony “war-on-terror”, got elected twice. Look at Bush’s history and his lust for money and power are evident.
Then, America wonders why Bush kisses Al-Saud’s butt and leaves the borders open to be plundered by those enslaved by greedy corporations, at the cost of American money, blood and lives.
If only Amwericans look at the record of the candidates who run for public office, they would smell the stink.
Again, well said, martin.musculus!
Thank you sir. Very well said. History, I am afraid, will repeat itself with JM. I hope Bill’s angle is correct because I think no matter what, JM will win. Too many are starting to see BO for the socialist he is. I just get frustrated with the “you must vote for mccain” guys when everyday he gives conservatives the finger. Sometimes I blow my top with those that get nasty. Again, well said.
Typical mcCain:
Dem: Obama rebuffed Daddy Yankee
There’s some amusement today about John McCain’s endorsement by the Puerto Rican performer Daddy Yankee, who has an assault charge and some some seriously racy lyrics.
There’s a bit more backstory, though. A Democratic Party source tells me a representative for Daddy Yankee approached Obama’s Latino outreach staffers earlier this year about possibly endorsing Obama.
But he didn’t pass the vetting, and Obama’s aides said they weren’t interested in his support. So, apparently, he moved over to McCain.
I am going on what Obama has promised to do to the USA as well.
With McCain Ill concede that people have a lot more to ho on when they make predictions. Obama has a incredibly short, thoroughly unimpressive record in the senate.
It’s the only way I can get my knee working and you haven’t tasted my coffee.
Hell of a job “Paraphrasing”. Even though I didn’t say that I agree with the premise so we can go with it nonetheless.
I am not. I have conceded that he is gong to take pushing and prodding, however, his history is that he actually does change course if his base demands it.
Bottom line:
Regarding McCain; the worst-case scenario is that is lying.
Regarding Obama; the worst-case scenario is that is telling the truth.
No thank you. That would split the party in a meaningless temper tantrum that would just serve to elect Obama.
At this point I am ready to tell you to be my guest.
Honestly Mike. It is McCain or Obama:
McCain is by no means perfect and will take vigilance and effort to keep him from doing something stupid and even then it might not be enough. OK? That is dead on honesty.
If you think Obama will make a fine president then you are entitled to vote for him. He is the antithesis of anything conservative. My crystal ball says that he is a dangerous, appeasing socialist who will permanently alter the fabric of the USA into something that is a shadow of what we once were.
At this point, I believe we can get though this rough patch and still salvage a country that values individualism, strength and integrity. (If we get off our asses.) If Obama gets elected he will tip the scales over to collectivism, appeasement and the selling out of our sovereignty. Don’t take my word on it. That is what he has pledged to do.
It is a pipe dream, it wont work, it will end up getting you the opposite of what you are after.
They are flush with money because whenever someone brings up their nominee the democrats weep at how wonderful he is and shower the idiot with their welfare checks. Whenever someone brings up ours, our side beets “shamnisty” and wets their pants. If they get a filibuster proof majority it wont be because of their great ideas, it will be because they out worked us, out donated us and outsmarted us. Our side will have whined it’s way into rewarding authentic traitors and ensuring that we get more.
So roll over and give up. You will have plenty of company on this blog.
Being the head of a co-equal branch of government is a whole lot different then being a senator. He wont have the incentives to compromise that he did.
Bull. So don’t vote for him, what do you want? Someone to hold your hand all the way to the election booth? You are going to have to make a decision here.
”
Again, stay at home and whine on the internet about your face stomping fantasies. Then run your flag up on the 4th of July and pat yourself on the back for being a good American while your inaction helped to usher in the downfall of the United States. I really don’t know what is expected of me here. Do you think I am going to join the general pity party? Or toss up my hands and give up on the USA because John McCain got the nod from daddy yankee?
It sure sounds like it.
I have been tiptoeing around saying that for ages but it is my exact sentiment: You are acting like a bunch of spoiled children because you can’t get everything you want the moment you want it and Iron clad guarantees that you wont have to get off the computer chair in order to make yourself herd. Yes, as you said, not me: “Grow/Man up!”
Ill run it right by him.
What do you want Mike? A personal pat on the head? An “atta boy”? Anything short of an engraved invitation doesn’t seem to cut it. Even if you got one it would only be for moments until you saw the next “Daddy Yankee” thread or shiny object.
If you need someone to hold your hand all the way to the voting booth so you wont have a temper tantrum then to hell with it; Stay home and help elect Obama. Just don’t kid yourself that you are doing it for conservative principles.
Good boy. You read the American Thinker article. They seem to have gotten their mind right since.
Nonsense.
You haven’t shown me anything. Seriously, all this is news to me.
That is a lie. It isn’t good to repeat lies, people will think you are a liar.
Google search: “No results found for: I never met with Tom!I’ve never visited him a”” So if he didn’t say that please don’t use quotes or else people will think you are lying out of McCain derangement.
You are sputtering. Your emotions have clearly taken over. If you want to have a tantrum be my guest. Just don’t expect me to take you seriously while you are doing it.
Where? For what?
No. You have asked me for things I cannot provide, like an iron-clad guarantee of someone else’s actions in the future. I cannot do that. I suggest, which I suspect will be ignored, but I suggest that you try to set aside your emotional, visceral dislike for the man and try to figure out who will be better for the country. If you can do that I am sure there is only one reasoned conclusion.
Who is this real “r” that is going to come riding up to save us? Some say Huckabee? Some think he is a bigoted clown with about an 85 IQ. Some say Romney, others hate him because he is a Mormon and have labeled him a RINO. Who? Fred Thompson? Ron Paul?
Like it or not McCain got the most votes in the republican convention. There is no legitimate alternative at this point. If you like someone else better, Oh well. I was for Romney. (The soft on Abortion, RINO from Massachusetts who had more wives then houses…remember? ) He lost. Fair and square. So did the scrawny squirrel popper, so did Wilford Brimleys understudy, so did the moonbat..
Lots of BS in there.
Cooking up another future conspiracy, eh. Well perhaps you should vote for Obama. He wont cross the aisle. Ever.
Any improvement on him?
Please. Don’t be ruled by being needy. Paying you lip service is just that. If McCain tells you what you want to hear next week are you going to believe him any more then last?
Time to get off the fence Mike.
