So President McCain is the choice of the war machine this time around
I always wondered why he let the black baby slur kill off his 2000 presidential campaign and later on hugged Bush like a babbling baby hugging Christ - he was clearly promised the next presidency after George, and he was really hugging the office he was about to be handed in 8 years. Ugh.

1. I suspect he'll
be the last man standing. I don't think the powers that be in the GOP care much for him but they don't like Romney or Huckabee. Guiliani is going anywhere, so where are the Repiblicans going to go? McCain is all that's left.

2. Yup, he's their man, and did you notice he's MORE hawkish than Bush?
He knows who's in control of the game of politics in this country, and he has no problem bowing to his masters.

3. That about sums it up.
All the same he is the strongest the GOP has got. I am sure the GOP will run the swiftboat machine to support him.
