If John McCain ever wants to hear ‘Hail to the Chief’ played in his honor, he must do something that he, among the remaining GOP candidates, is particularly ill-prepared to do: Carry a conservative coalition into Congress on his coattails.
Mr. McCain, who fought President George Bush’s tax cuts and now supports making them permanent, professes a desire to slash federal spending, eliminate wasteful programs and sneaky earmarks, and find new ways to reduce taxes. Be still my blood-red beating heart.
However, House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid each would greet President McCain’s vision with four words: “Over my retired body.”

My thoughts exactly Scott, and good line…
Sen. McCain’s bomber jacket has no coattails
McCain is a maverick all right, and he doesn’t represent this Republican.

Odd things going on here today Scott. After I post, I can’t see it. If I logout, I can see it. When I log back in it disappears again.

Wow!
Nicely done, Scott.
“While Sen. McCain has demonstrated a proclivity for reaching across the aisle, his bipartisan spirit has only worked to advance causes dear to Democrats…”
Couldn’t say it better. He is the worst thing for conservatives, especially at this time.

It’s just the Ghost of Nobel Past tinkering with his invention again. It will all pass, just like he did.

My computer is in the “zone” also. Not so much Scrappleface, but the whole kitinkaboo. I had to shut it down about three times and F8 it to the last working period.
My last message from the virus protector was another being or something or other was trying to grab hold of my compute so I quarantined it.
I have no idea what it was but strangely enough Firefox was the only thing working. Firefox runs Scrappleface and all my other blogs.

In a word: “No.”
That’s the one I’d prefer, although I would have to hold my nose and vote for him before I could do so for whoever the Democrats nominate…
