Today the WTimes featured a piece by Stephen Dinan about how the blog world bailed out the McCain campaign. I wasn’t there during those do or die days where everyone but a few people, including Brad Marston, were burying John McCain. I do know there was not a great a blog presence for McCain as the Times would have the world believe.
Captain Ed picked the story up at Hot Air. I find the revisionist history rather fascinating. Like Beth I only remember Blogs against McCain and a tremendous amount of hate spewed against him, much ... more»
I admit it. I am furious. I am so sick and tired of these people and the things they do about immigration reform I could say something really tacky. I’m not. I am furious at the way they take the word of a racist little twerp like Heath Schuler over John McCain over that deplorable SAVE Act. Somewhere it needs to stop. Right Pundits is resurrecting that debunked claim of DEMOCRAT Heath Shuler that John McCain blocked an yet another suicidal immigration bill.

Look, just color me cynical. I’m worried. Things are WAY too good for John McCain right now. If this were October, I would be a very happy person. Unfortunately this is March. What goes up must come down, unless…. Something like this occurs: Condi may be interested in the VP spot.
The Phoenix from Phoenix? Unfortunately it is too early and there are too many anti-McCain conservatives and way too many NON REPUBLICAN anti-immigration nativists who will do just about anything to throw a monkey wrench into the machinery.
I’ve been telling you there is a certain group of conservatives who are making a heck of a lot of noise about not supporting John McCain. They are also making a heck of a lot of trouble for the GOP. I’ve also been telling you for two years that these folks have nothing to do with the GOP and are part of the Constitution Party. This is very serious. I think this is the reason we lost the House and the Senate in 2006. If John McCain were to lose in November, I would lay the ... more»
Fortunately the Sun has set on the 4th Sunday in Lent so I can no longer use profanity. I wish, though I could. I think this WPost op-ed from Brent Bozell is THE LAST STRAW. That’s it. I give up. Let’s not even have an election. Let’s just give it to the Dems and roll over to play dead. That’s what Bozell is proposing. I just want to know, who the H-E-Double Toothpick died and made him God?
I don’t understand what is wrong with these people. They are beyond belief. Don’t today’s precious conservatives ... more»
There is a bottom line here. From what I am starting to discover two things are happening out there. First, your real, honorable, honest Republicans are either un inspired but voting for McCain or absolutely furious with conservatives and talk radio and are ready to fight. The other thing – conservatives and fence sitters could care less and may not be voting. The primary reason is because of conservative talk radio and the trashing of John McCain. If these people do not either shut up or start behaving themselves we are going to end ... more»
