The Republicans want to lose....

[Whisp]

why else would they put a slackard like McCain up?
that guy can't win an ugly contest.

but they want to lose to Hillary.
They do not want to combat you the people that are Fed Up and angry with this corrupt gaming system - Obama.

1. I'm wondering if they really do want to lose

I would not be surprised to find that Bushco has hidden all other sorts of nasties that are going to bite the new Democratic President in the ass.

2. time out for their sins.

and the baton goes to a Clinton as a salve. but same agenda in the end, just 'nicer'.
been done.

4. they don't believe in penance for their sins

they just need to be born again

[Whisp]

8. born again to a job they sold out due to NAFTA.

Bill Clinton telemarketing for a dollar or so an hour, now that would get me hot for him.

7. he would come up third after medusa and a hydra.

[readmoreoften]

10. I disagree. I think he could give 'em a run for their money. /nt

6. wouldn't surprise me none.

I doubt that we will actually have a general election. more likely there will be martial law declared on some pretense and all elections canceled for good. most likely pretense would be a false flag terror attack blamed on iran giving them both the go ahead to end democracy in our country and invade iran and all the rest of anyplace that dares to not worship the almighty dollar.

[Whisp]

9. there is nothing honest about all this

that I have accepted.

and I say, no matter what, no matter the challenge or honesty or anything...

a Clinton will keep the keys to the vaults of lieing.

but hope is still good.

11. Despite appearance, the Republicans are not a hive mind.

They've put up McCain because they're fractured and split and don't have the capacity to work in unison to select someone who can please a good number of Republicans and also do well in the general election.

It's seldom a good idea to analyze the actions of a group as if it were simply acting like a composite individual.
