Say hello to a McCain Administration...

[ReverendDeuce]

I hate to say it, but McCain will peel off the independent vote big-time... Hillary won't carry them.

What is WRONG with my fellow Democrats in these important states?

[terrya]

1. No.

A 72 year old man who has consistenly supported the current adminstration...said administration having 30% approval ratings?

I disagree with you about McCain.

[Cronus Protagonist]

It's a ridiculous thought, really

Unless there's another false flag operation and McCain, having consistently out-hawked Bush for the last several years, will look like the strongest candidate.

[Skinner]

Gimme a break.

First of all: We don't have a nominee yet.

Second: Neither do the Republicans.

Third: It's a little early to start writing our obituary, don't you think?

[ReverendDeuce]

22. McCain is SCARY! He's got a lot of people convinced he's the "maverick"...

He's further right than Romney, but he's got people thinking he's liberal... That's why he's terrifying. That's why he'll win the independent vote.

[avaistheone1]

43. And alot of people like Limbaugh and Coulter think McCain is a liberal

[ReverendDeuce]

54. I KNOW! Have you looked at the issues and where McCain falls? JEBUS...

He's FAR to the right of even Huckabee...

[jeff30997]

2. I say hello..

You're just a big zero!

[Shine]

3. Let's not be hasty.

it's a loooong way til November. Keep the faith.

[Thrill]

4. Hillary will not beat Mccain

Democrats would be fools to nominate her

[robbedvoter]

5. yeah, cuz all Americans want 100 years in Iraq! BS!!!

[russian33]

13. yeah, she can take that line, and smack him around with it any chance she gets

good luck getting independent voters then

[AlCzervik]

6. oh horseshit.

[matcom]

are you INSANE???

RW radio is STATING they will NOT vote for him!

are you KIDDING ME?

McCain is the BEST THING TO EVER HAPPEN TO OUR NOMINEE!

geeze :eyes:

stupid, stupid thread on SO many levels

[Donk Yore]

7. NO way

We've got some results to get in, and many more states to vote. Nothing is written in stone yet.

[sfam]

8. McCain may have to take on Huckabee...this benefits either Dem

Most independents will have a hard time voting for someone who disbelieves evolution.

[liberalnurse]

9. McCain maybe the republican candidate

but I do NOT SEE any administration for this Manchurian Candidate.:scared:

[Mojambo]

10. Senator Clinton can beat McCain. Might have a bit tougher time than Obama though

Nothing's settled yet anyway.

[rodeodance]

15. YES SHE can

[Medusa]

20. She can't and she won't .

[ElsewheresDaughter]

11. okay Kreskin

14. Thank you for pointing out how everyone who disagrees with you is mentally defective

[Maddy McCall]

16. Bullshit.

[cloudythescribbler]

17. I am for Obama, and think he'd run stronger than HRC, but any Dem really seeking to beat McCain only

needs to hammer the point home EVERY DAY that a vote for McCain is a vote to 'stick it out' in Iraq, with more surges, and the Dems should win

but I would feel MUCH more confident w/Obama as the nominee; and we'd have a better Congress too, methinks

[racaulk]

18. Hey, can you share with me some lottery numbers for November 4, 2008?

Since you apparently already know what will happen on that date, we may as well use your powers of clairvoyance to enrich ourselves, don't you think?

Geez... :eyes:

[NoPasaran]

19. Say hello to my Ignore List!

Where all the McCain Fifth Columnists go to wail and gnash their teeth.
:nuke:

[PermanentRevolution]

21. When election day comes around

If McCain is their nominee, all those right-wingers who are frothing and spitting about him will go into their polling place, vote for him, and then walk out and shout about how they refused to vote for such a liberal-in-disguise. McCain will NOT lose the far-right vote, regardless of what exit polls say, because they'll still prefer him to the alternative, whoever that winds up being.

Whereas McCain WILL be able to siphon off a fair number of independent voters with his so-called "moderate" label. It's by no means a foregone conclusion, but I'd be worried about McCain.

[Nimrod2005]

23. Hello

[madmunchie]

24. You are kidding aren't you???? McCain is is so much doo doo with his own Party

not to even start going into the many many stupid comments he has made of late - - -like being 100 years in Iraq and oh, how about not realling knowing much about the economy..... He has just about buried himself in the last year. The pictures of him and Bush hugging and kissing will be great campaign pics to!

[Catchawave]

38. Probably why Huck is doing so well tonight.....

Survey USA had Edwards knocking Huckabee's socks off 50-30...until they took him off the survey :cry:

What is wrong with our party :shrug:

[nonconformist]

25. You should be more concerned about Indy and mod Repugs falsly over-inflating Obama's numbers

Only to abandon him for McCain come November.

[elfin]

26. I agree - not only will he benefit from

Independent voters who have a knee jerk hate reaction to Clinton -- BUT the idealists of the younger set will forego the election in dissapointment and disaffection in seeing another corporatist as their supposed choice.

That is enough margin (plus the vote stealing or vote negating skills of the Rethugs) to sway to McPain.

PLUS -- if Clinton is the nominee -- troublemaker Nader is sure to jump in siphoning off even more "message" voters - perhaps to make enough difference in critical electoral states.

Her competence and "experience" notwithstanding -- Clinton is an ultimate loser in a guaranteed close election in November if she is the nominee against McPain.

PLUS a "terror alert" is for sure to put him over the top if it is really close to highlight his supposed strength on such matters.

[Junkdrawer]

27. Damn it: NO SPOILERS, Mr. Rove's worked really hard on this script...

and it's not fair for the rest of us if you ruin it by revealing the ending.

[ReverendDeuce]

29. LOL!! n/t

n/t

[Junkdrawer]

52. Well, the good news is that Limbaugh, Hannity, Coulter and the gang will retire...

Bad News: 8 more years of Iraq and possibly Iran (although I think that's less likely than many around here think.)

[Roland99]

28. Not if he picks the Christ Warrior for a VP.

[blondeatlast]

30. "One hundred years of war in "Iraq and your job is permanently in

Asia/Mexico/etc." McCain?

Give me a fugging break--he's dead before he's the nominee. FWIW, I've followed his entire political career from richeer in AZ.

[demo dutch]

31. Nonsense! The country is against staying in Iraq and thinks economy is #1

[IsItJustMe]

32. You for real?

[PretzelWarrior]

33. Agreed. Hillary loses big time to McCain in GE

it's something a lot of brain dead people in America just don't get.

[karlrschneider]

40. And if Obama gets the nod, McCain will win 50 states.

Guaranteed.

[PretzelWarrior]

46. you're full of it and you know it.

Hillary is not a uniter. She is a polarizing figure people LOVE to hate. McCain will act like he's Santa Claus/Jesus Christ/Ronald Reagan wrapped up into a chubby little package and steam roll if Hillary wins Dem Nom.

[ecstatic]

34. McCain is not inevitable. He is a VERY flawed candidate

Google "McCain temper" "McCain joke"

[Straight Shooter]

35. Just stop it.

McCain is pitiful. If he debates Hillary, she'll chew him up and spit him out into the dogfood bowl.

[oviedodem]

36. The poster is right and some of you won't accept it.

I am warning you that Repubs may look bad now but they WILL BAND TOGETHER just to stop Clinton; I kid you not. Trust me on this and if Huck is on the ticket Hill won't win the south under any circumstance.

[uppityperson]

47. And they won't band together to stop any other Dem candidate?

Of course it's not over until it's over, but get a grip, there is quite a ways left to go. Why should I trust you? Serious question. What info do you have that I don't? What insightful insight can you share with me that leads you to this conclusion? Serious question.

[blondeatlast]

49. It's a good thing you found your way here to show us the light.

Now that you are here, fuck off.

[ronnykmarshall]

37. Fuck off.

[MethuenProgressive]

39. Why? Did we surrender and nominate Obama tonight?

[jillan]

41. Hillary has what it takes to beat McCain.

That was my final reason for voting for her today.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

42. your crystal ball is broken. its best you invest in a new one.

[gateley]

44. What is your problem? Hillary hasn't gotten all the delegates votes. Stop

being an alarmist. Just wait and see what happens.

[ShadowLiberal]

45. I agree, and we're going to screw ourselves over by nominating the most unelectable candidate

I agree, and we're going to screw ourselves over by nominating Hillary with negatives as high as 50%, no one can win with negatives that high.

[blondeatlast]

51. Another "concerned" DUer. Is it that fun to talk amongst yourselves? nt

[ReverendDeuce]

53. Hillary is the John Kerry of 2008... *sigh*

I just don't GET THIS...

[blondeatlast]

48. This Obama supporter says--screw you. "100 years in Iraq and your job is

permanently in Asia" McCain is toastity-toast-toast-toast.

[Lilith Velkor]

50. Bollocks.

[graywarrior]

55. Jesus, wtf?

[Raine]

56. I agree

I think MacCain will beat either Hillary or Obama he'll just grind either into the ground. :-( Maybe if Obama gets the nomination we can hold congress otherwise we're really screwed.
