Question to all people afriad of John McCain
Why?

This man CANT unite his own party.
The American people want OUT OF IRAQ
He knows nothing about economics.
Democrats are out VOTING Repubs in every state 2 to 1
Republicans in the house and Senate are retiring in droves.
His arms are SHORT
I think Hillary or Barack would win, although I do think Obama would win in a landslide.

There is not ONE TREND that is favorable to repubs or John McCain. I dont know what you're afraid of. It kinda makes me laugh.

3. Not trying to be cocky. Straining my brain trying to see a reason to fear him.

2. He's nuts.
He puts himself out as "whatever is popular at the time".

A dangerous careerist. Not to be taken lighyly...

4. I think the main danger . . .
. . . is not the substance of McCain - - he's borderline insane with an anger management problem, and as you rightly point out, knows nothing about economics. He also has a huge problem, as you alluded to, trying to please everybody - - he has to act like even more of a rightwing nut than he is to get out the base vote, but that will turn off moderates and my favorites, the "independents."

The real danger is how he will be portrayed in the media. Gore won the popular vote and was only prevented from winning the elctroal vote because of corrupt, treasonous "justices" of the Supreme Court - - but at every turn, he fought against the media, and won in spite of them. His opponent had less substance than McCain, but it didn't matter. Could it happen again? It's only been eight years. That's what concerns me.

7. Afraid of him? He's a gift! What a terrible candidate!
Watch Huckster get under his skin, and watch the little teapot blow his stack. This is going to be fun. He's going to make Bush look like a man of reason by comparison.

8. You're right. Still, it's good to consider: MSM will beatify him & crucify our
nominee.
GOP-ers will fallin line - like they always do.
But I agree with you - in a clean election, we win.
Will it be clean? Will our winner fight for counting votes? Stay tuned...
