Would McCain be a good president?

[Tiggeroshii]

Poll question: Would McCain be a good president?

I guess there are a few of us who still think this is the case. I want to know how many.

[barb162]

1. what's your definition of a good president

[ronnykmarshall]

Compared to what?

Compared to Bush, a box of salt would do a good job!

[MADem]

6. A box of salt would do a GREAT job comparatively!!! Flavor a stew, melt sidewalk ice,

and with Vice President Warm Water, act as a gargle for an inflamed throat!!

[peace13]

2. And lets be clear...

that's hell no for me!

[racaulk]

3. I say no, but he'd be a hell of an improvement over the current WH squatter. n/t

[skipos]

4. He would be a good president

if you wanted America to continue to go down the toilet.

[buff2]

5. A resounding

PHUCK NO!!!!!!!!!! God,I can't stand that two-faced bu$h ass kisser. :puke:

[WatchWhatISay]

7. If you would have asked me a year ago

my answer would have been different. As a result of his actions over the past year, I have lost all respect for him.

[rep the dems]

8. Is that a serious question? n/t

[bullimiami]

9. no. he has no moral compass of his own. he was easily convinced to

torture people and throw out laws in favor of totalitarian power.
he has no spine or character.

he had his chance and he embraced lawlessness and unconstitutionality.

[aquart]

10. Unfuckingbelievable.

It took less than a week for some of DU to start slavering over that spineless piece of shit.

[Tiggeroshii]

14. I voted "no" by the way.

I hate his guts. Apparently one of us doesn't, though...

[Contrary1]

11. Seems like 9.3 out of 10 Freeps think not:

According to a posted article entitled "McCain Starts Planning for 2008 Run" Senator John McCain is considered the front-runner for the 2008 Republican presidential nomination. Would you be for or against McCain?

12. Not just No, but HELL NO!

[bluedawg12]

13. Not sure any Repug could or would be good

also, I am tired of the old news, Nam era, old pols, with no future dreams.

In general, poli-ticks needs new blood, as do all ticks.

[MasonJar]

15. I guess one could say yes if one favored an increase in the

troops in Iraq and if one had any respect for someone who celebrated with Buswh while fellow citizens and their pets died and drowned on the Gulf of Mexico and if one liked hypocrisy.

[Mark E. Smith]

16. Older'n dirt

And look who he'd have to get
into bed with to win the office.

[Crunchy Frog]

17. I don't think he'd be anywhere near as dangerous and incompetent

as what we have now. I do think he might feel the need to pander to RW extremists.

I honestly do not think he's going to get the nomination, (we'll see how that prediction holds up):).

[Bullshot]

18. I would have voted, but NFW was not one of the choices.

[Stinky The Clown]

19. NFW

No fucking way.

he has thrown every 'principle' he may have ever had to pander and suck ass.

He was a Goldwater protegee. Barry must be spinning in his grave.

[lumpy]

21. Agree, Plus the guy is unstable, confused and

incompetent.

[zulchzulu]

20. Would McCain make a good male prostitute...

He should try it out since he pretty much acts like it these days when hanging around The Chimp.

[TWiley]

22. I don't trust Republicans right now

Too many bad memories, too soon after the abuse.

[Selatius]

23. At best, he's another Bill "NAFTA" Clinton president

Keep making it easier to outsource American jobs.

[Disturbed]

24. Newt will slice and dice McLame.

McLame won't get the Rethug nom.

[terrya]

25. Fuck NO

George W. Bush part II. More of the same. McCain is a right winger, lest we forget.

[fujiyama]

26. Not as bad as Bush

He'd be easier to work with and might seek a more moderate path as president.

But would I vote for him after his ass kissing of Bush these last few years?

Hell no.

[Hippo_Tron]

27. Two or three years ago I would've said maybe, but now NO FUCKING WAY

Besides, he'd never get my vote for that tasteless joke he made about Chelsea Clinton.

[leesa]

28. You MUST be joking! You want a spineless weasel for a Prez?

[leftofthedial]

29. he's a spineless, weasely whore

he'll blow anybody for a buck

[ncteechur]

30. I liked McCain in 2000. But when he didn't bust Gov. Bush in

the mouth and Karl Rove, too, for talking about his family, he sold out and that was it.

[Virginia Dare]

31. I have to say no, however...

it would probably be a slight improvement over the chimp.

[TheJollyNihilist]

32. Nope.

He's anti-gay and anti-choice. No way.

[Anaxamander]

33. Compared to Bush I think he'd be okay

But it doesn't matter, because he'll never, ever win the Republican primary. Conservative Republicans hate him even more than liberals do.

[TheJollyNihilist]

34. Matt Drudge

I know Matt Drudge skewers McCain at every opportunity. I think you're right.

[howmad1]

35. Betcha' his........

....drug addicted wife and black, illegitmate daughter would vote "yes". Let's hope that lump on the side of his face will help him decide whether he will run or not. It seems to be getting bigger, so I'm betting he won't.

[Ignacio Upton]

36. He would be better than Bush, but still a crappy President

I think he would govern more like Bush Sr.
