I know McCain's ready to reap the benefits of Bush's failures . .
. . by posing as a saner rethug.

Can anyone suggest a good website where I can find ammunition to discredit McCain. I don't like the beady-eyed pumpkin at all - but I'd like some hard-hitting facts to use when I run into rethug-lites who claim that McCain is the good guy on our horizon.

I know there are some really savvy folks here on these matters. Thanks.

1. Don't worry about McCain.
After he gets the WH in '08 the BFEE will bump him off so the VP (Jeb) can take his place.

2. You could talk about his class standing at the Naval Academy
But academically comparing him to Shrub, he would still be ahead.

How about signing the confession as a war criminal to the NVA ???

4. I don't see ANY benefits to Bush's failures for ANYONE!
I truly pity our next President, unless he's loonier than Bush; it will take decades to clean up this huge frigging mess created by Dim Son...

5. The Rethugs don't seem to like McCain
I find it hard to believe he would be a contender.

too short and too ugly with that pizza face. No TVQ. I'm sorry to say it, but those things do matter. Bring on Wes Clark.

10. It's unfortunate, but it does make a difference
and the fact that repubs see him as a traitor with the fillibuster deal

7. McCain "least blameworthy" among the Senators in Keating S&L scandal
Edited on Thu Jul-28-05 01:38 PM by kenny blankenship
Is "least blameworthy" among a group of elected officials found to have been influencing a federal investigation of a fraud-soaked S&L operator mean that you are worthy of being President?

It's quite true that W's insider trading and aWol during Vietnam are much shabbier; but still, do we now, because of the Son of Bush, set the bar to high office all the way down at the level of a felony conviction?
