I used to have a lot of respect for senator McCain. However, his recent pandering to the far religious right and his rollover on the torture debate have thrown very cold water on any enthusiasm for him as a candidate.

I believe he wants it so badly he has begun to say and do anything to be president. Whenever you witness that in a candidate it is a very bad sign, no matter what their party affiliation.

McCain got by with slap on his wrist from the senate ethics committee for his savings & loan involvement - but as Presidential candidate he's going to get asked alot of questions;

"McCain has given his all for the US, that's something that queers like Hillary and Osama-Obama would never do."
But of course dilweeds like you conveniently discount the service of decorated veterans like Murtha, Kerry and Cleland...

O.K. righty, it's time to play the "let's see how many Americans we can disparage in the fewest words possible" game...

As with Colin Powell, after kissing Bush's a s s, John McCain has lost all credibility. Right now, it's looking bad for the GOP in 2008. The Republicans are ALL falling on their swords for George W. Bush even as we speak!

McCain's service as a Navy pilot is truly admirable. How unfortuante that his service as a Senator has been no where near as exemplary....

"as for Obama, you don't make someone president simply because they are a refreshing new black candidate. He's as transparent as hell anyway."
I love watching the right implode at the idea of a "President Obama." The concept that he might be gaining popularity because of his character and ideas just doesn't register...

i actually would vote for Barack Obama (he would be 110% better than the ******* in the White House now. My instinct tells me, though, that he will probably wind up as the VP candidate on the Democratic ticket, which would suit me just fine,
