This one’s set to start airing soon in South Carolina, proof that Maverick’s already thinking beyond New Hampshire.

Unnerved and underwhelmed by a lackluster field, the boss contemplates the unthinkable: SECOND LOOK AT McCAIN! Click the image to watch.

Supported the surge when just about everyone else in the Senate hid beneath their desks

…nope. Not enough to forgive his past evils. Sorry. Thanks for playing. Play again.

John McCain is a dictionary illustration of the stereotypical politician. Go look…he’s really there! :)

No one else running has any military experience. No one else “gets” foreign affairs like McCain. He makes George Bush look like the foreign-affairs amateur that he is. GWB has been hamstrung (and gelded) in the past six months by his “own” CIA and State Department. I defy ANYONE to tell me that McCain could so easily be taken out of the game.

What do we need in charge more now? A CEO, a preacher, an actor, — or a sonofabitch?

I’m voting for the sonafabitch.

Well let me count the ways.

1. McCain/Feingold
2. Ammnesty with Teddy boy
3. Lack of support for tax cuts
4. Position on waterboarding of terrorists with info that could save thousands of lifes.

No, I am not voting for the sonafabitch just because he spent several years in a POW camp. That kind of thinking has gotten him elected to the Senate several times. Instead of the deadheads in his state looking at his record.

Sorry, it takes a little more than that for me to support someone for the job of POTUS.

For all the woopidoo about the surge the Pres. was in charge of troop strength and sending reinforcements is a normal military response to struggling bogged down troops.
The Pres. knew all along what he had planned, it took Patreaus to bring it off.
Its nice that McCain supported the surge, I don’t understand what made increasing troop levels in time of war so exceptional unless the whole hulabaloo was engineered to humiliate liberals, in which case, OK.

What else has St John done for us? Lately.

“Never surrender” is a meaningless platitude when you have already surrendered your nation’s sovereignty and security and first line of defense with a gapingly open border.

LV – Don’t you think it is kinda’ strange that nobody except you and me want to talk about the Keating Five ?
Surely some of the posters above were around during that era !

4. Position on waterboarding of terrorists with info that could save thousands of lifes.

right, because, having been tortured himself, he can’t have an objective point of view on how totally rock hard and cool it is to support torture.

for that matter, who’s paying attention to what some war veteran might think? TEH ONLY WAR WE FACE IS THE INVASION FROM MEXICO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let me recommend you consider a remedial reading course: It is obvious that in my post above I was specifically (and only) referring to foreign policy.

Only point four of your list qualifies as a truly foreign policy issue.

And you left out this small item:

1. Has unwaveringly supported victory in Iraq, as well as the surge.

I disagree with McCain on most of his domestic issues, as well.

I happen to believe that the enemy hordes are at the gates and that we need to defeat them. In my view, McCain alone — of the current group of candidates — seems to “get” it AND have the savvy to “do” something about it.
