John McCain

[Renew Deal]

John McCain has already lost the 2008 presidential election. I doubt if he makes it out of a primary, but he's lost the General Election anyway. John McCain is not the maverick reformer of 2000 anymore. He's not the spontaneous, common sense, independent that he once built himself up as. John McCain lacking backbone, character, balls, and brains has become just another say anything, do nothing politician that is more interested in getting elected than doing the right thing.

Evidence #1


That speaks for itself. Pathetic

Evidence #2
He refused to denounce Bush after the 2000 primary even though Bush directly and indirectly:
Played the race card by saying McCain fathered a black baby.
Said that McCain's wife is a drug addict.
Questioned his service in Vietnam
Claimed that McCain was a traitor for talking to the VC.

Evidence #3
"McCain's war on blogs."

This is another example of McCain trying to control his environment. He knows his support is weak in the conservative blogosphere and he will get eviscerated by the popular blogosphere in a GE. So what does he do? He attacks the blogs. He could start a regular blog. He could reach out to bloggers and do interviews. Instead he tries to silence them.

Evidence #4

Just watch him. He's jumped the shark with his position on the war. He wants more troops. The professional pundits all say this is a smart position because McCain will say that no one tried his method. WRONG, Bush is actually dumb enough to try it. Bush will ignore ISG and Iraq will be a disaster. McCain will have ignored popular will and the recommendations of experts and he will lose.

McCain is just wrong. He's wrong for the Republicans. He's wrong for America. He's scripted himself into irrelevancy. Too bad for him.
