1. Tasty.

[AlCzervik]

2. that story has been out for 3 days, they know already.

[gateley]

4. Is it getting any coverage? nt

[AlCzervik]

5. i hear the rw radio guys attacking him everyday on a whole host of issues

so just add this article to the pile. they already call him a liberal and they all think he was considering running with Kerry in 2004.

[gateley]

8. Thanks. Again, can you imagine how much play this would be getting if he were a Dem? nt

[AlCzervik]

9. yeah it would be really bad but in all honesty the rw is really kicking the living shit

out of McCain, i know they've never been big fans but really it's gotten beyond where i though they'd go, personally i think it's fear on their part, if he wins the nod he will lose the general.

[gateley]

10. And it's been a kind of knee-jerk belief on the Dems' parts that if McCain

gets the nod, he's our biggest threat. Politics. :eyes:

[AlCzervik]

11. yeah i totally disagree with that memo, picture the split screen if he wins the nod

he will look terrible in every sense of the word compared to whoever is our candidate. Mccain might have played in 2000 but thats a long time ago and that ship sailed.

[gateley]

14. I agree. He doesn't have the fire he once had (or he doesn't display it like

he used to) and he really does look like an old, ALMOST doddering, man.

[gateley]

3. Love it. nt

[mucifer]

6. Nah mccain will use it as "I'm a uniter not a divider" crap

and guess what? The voters will probably eat it up and he will be our next president.



I can't help it I'm a big time pessimist.

[bernicewilliams]

7. I heard this story a couple of months ago n/t

[lurky]

12. Check the date on the article: 03/28/07

Maybe it will get more attention now that he is winning, but it's had plenty of time to circulate.

[democrat2thecore]

13. Wow. I FORGOT about that! It was whispered around at the time. More than that I guess! -nt

[Citizen Kang]

15. It could be spun another way

That he is the Independent Maverick who can pull enough Independents to win the General Election. Get used to the term "McCain Democrats" especially if Hillary is the nominee.
