I hope your skin is thick when it happens to us.

Um…. How the Hell do you think McCain’s flying monkey squad got the leverage to call the rest of us “crybabies?”

Democrats deliberately spiked GOP primaries to get rid of unifing candidates like Romney. We got stuck with cranky old bastard because of crossover voting and Republican idiots who hate are intolerant of overt Christianity.

The media and the lib loaded early states picked McCain.

Exactly. Operation Chaos avenges Fred and demonstrates that Republicans have the gonads to level the playing field.

I’m still amazed that the super delegates and the Democratic leadership haven’t convened some secret meeting in some obscure location to discuss drafting a third choice for President. They have to know by now that neither Shillary or B.O. have what it takes to run this country for the next four years, unless they intend on running it into the ground.

Let’s offer up McCain – he would make a WONDERFUL democrat candidate and we could pick somebody we actually like for our side.

One of these days the good citizens who got all energized to vote Democrat are going to realize that their vote never mattered in the Democrat Party’s machinations. Their candidate will have been selected by a bunch of elite, establishment Democrat politicians, who are concerned about protecting their own power in office and smile pityingly at the notion that everyday peoples’ votes ever had a scintilla of importance in the selection of the nominee.

That’s funny. That’s EXACTLY the way I feel about the way McCain got nominated. The media and the lib loaded early states picked McCain. Since they picked that worthless loser for me, I went to the polls today to strike back at them! In November I’ll vote for EVERY Republican on the ballot but cast no vote for president. I will NOT vote for that S.O.B.

That last I heard Clinton was leading almost 2:1 in Indiana.

And no, nobody got challenged. The only thing you’d have to do if challenged is sign something stating you voted mostly for Dems in the last election or planned to do so in the next one.

when it happens to us.

When what happens to whom?

Well, I just voted for Chaos, in Indiana. No problems.

paratrooper on May 6, 2008 at 5:34 PM

You should be proud. People died so you could mock the franchise. I hope your skin is thick when it happens to us.

Thanks Easter Bunny!!

I am just pointing out that McCain won fair and square in spite of people like you.

So backing the candidate that most closely fit my values and viewpoints makes it “voting in spite?” What a nasty bitter lot you McCain people become when the rest of us dare question your sense of reality!

If a Democrat wins and puts in liberal judges and gives drivers licenses to illegals and surrenders to AlQaida, you can just remind yourself there is no difference between McCain and Obama, whatever. I am so sick of listening to the belly aching I do not much give a rat’s ass anymore.

A Democrat will win no matter the outcome of the election. And again, those of us in the GOP that disagree with McCain’s amnesty schemes or tepid support of qualified CONSERVATIVE jurists have a right to voice our opinions every bit as much as you rabid intolerant left-of-center “Republicans” that infest the party.

What do you suppose moderate Democrats are going have to do once Obama wins the nomination? Do they hold their nose and vote for Obama or do they consider cranky old bastard as a legitimate alternative? I would suggest that this is precisely what cranky old bastard is counting on when he continues to alientate himself from the real Republicans. What does McCain do when Democrats, with their own people telling the Clinton supporters to “shut the f**k up” and support Barry get a unified front against McCain and all his flying monkey apologists pitted against the rank-and-file grassroots constituency ticked off over McCain’s pandering for amnesty and more liberal SCOTUS nominees.

I fully agree with this. As Rush pointed out, you had McCain slamming the NC GOP for running an anti-Wright ad against the local NC Dem Gubernatorial candidates, and McCain quickly condemned them. What exactly is his plan to salvage the GOP in Congress? – there are so many vacant GOP seats there that risk being lost to the Dems.

McCain has in the past and even now stated that it’s wrong to support Republicans just because they have an (R) after their names, and has spent most of his energy lying about Romney, while slamming Tom Delay and Ted Stephens, as though Stephens was the only pork shopper in Congress and Delay was the only corrupt leader there (think the Dems won’t resurrect the Keating 5?) In 2004, we had a GOP president, Congress and Senate, and still couldn’t get our policies and nominees moved, thanks to the likes of Lincoln Chafee, George Voinovich, Arlen Specter, Olympia Snowe, Lindsey Gramm and McCain himself, on various issues from Gang of 14 to nomination of John Bolton, Miguel Estrada, et al. We had McCain cross over several times and support Democrat positions. And we are supposed to believe that as president, he’ll do just the opposite of what he’s done as a senator? For geniuses like these (such as Michael Medved), I have oceanfront property in Arizona that I’d like to sell.

Thankfully, Chafee, Voinovich, DeWine have been flushed out of Congress, but that hasn’t been enough – we now have McCain as our nominee, thanks to the independents and Dems who did in NH, NC, and other states what we’re now doing across the country, since our nominee has been fixed by our enemies. I have a lot more respect for the Obamas of the world who are loyal to their position and don’t indulge in antics like the Gang of 14, than I have for Clinton or McCain. I just wish we had someone like him on the GOP side (minus of course the Wright and Ayres connections).

McCain has gone out of his way to reach across the aisle, as well as stating that it’s wrong to support Republicans just because they have an (R) after their names. We Republicans should follow his instructions and example and rather than give him that opportunity to reach out again, we ought to do the reaching out for him by voting Obama. Yeah, I disagree with him as much as the next guy, but I can’t stomach the idea of a traitor like McCain, or a power abuser like Clinton in the White House.

Sorry but promises on the campaign trail tells me that John McCain wants to be President. Nothing more.

Pro-life without clear dedication to protecting children. Claims of being in favor of increased border security while brokering amnesty schemes with Teddy Kennedy. Claims of giving us constructionalist jurists on the SCOTUS while curtiailing First Amendment rights for individuals.

John McCain is a walking talking hypocrite. He’ll say all sorts of things while campaigning that he conveniently forgets when actually in office.

Of the three people interviewed, two are voting the “wrong” way.

Not necessarily. She may be a little weak kneed and afraid that hillary will pull it out.The goal is not that either barry or hillary win, but that the process goes on as long as possible. While there are two candidates, the msm is taking sides and information is able to get out. Once there is a single democrat candidate, the msm support will coalesce around that candidate. Now is the only opportunity for the undecideds to see the warts.

Right on, right on, right on.

“We’ve seen more Democrats so far in the first few hours than we’ll usually see in a day,” said election judge Barb Stauch at Avon United Methodist Church in Hendricks County.

“We’ve had a lot of questions about switching. People want to know if they can switch back and forth, if they can vote Democratic this time,” said election clerk Cara Paasch at the church.

This is actually my polling place; I’m the precinct vice committeeman. And Cara is my lovely better half.

I just went and voted. I voted pubby, not rat. I was the only one there. One other person came in while I was voting. Pretty quite.

Republicans should be glad that filibuster is available. Especially if a Democrat wins in November.

Terrye on May 6, 2008 at 2:50 PM

If they lose too many more seats, there won’t be anyone named Phil or Buster left to defend conservatives.

And how did the “gang of 14″ work out? That was basically saying, 50 Senators don’t matter, we have 14, and I, John McLaim, am KING OF THE WORLD!

kirkill on May 6, 2008 at 2:37 PM

LOL.. but it would be sister.

Think beyond your own egos and stubbornness. There is a country and a world out there.

There is no Reagan waiting behind a courtain. It is nearly impossible to revert socialism. These are perilous times.

Entelechy on May 6, 2008 at 2:32 PM

I agree with you to an extent. That’s why I haven’t decided if a twice lost the presidency McCain would be more effective in the senate, if Hillary “steals the nomination,” or if to hold my nose and pull the donkey lever for the horsesa$$ (McCain).

Still soul-searching. Doesn’t mean I am not enjoying Op Chaos…

First of all I don’t care who you vote for. I am not telling you to shut up. I am just pointing out that McCain won fair and square in spite of people like you. Now if you want to let the Democrats win {again} go ahead. But don’t whine about the fact that you can not get someone nominated. That is not my fault, or McCain’s fault. It might have something to do with you or your friends or your attitude.

If a Democrat wins and puts in liberal judges and gives drivers licenses to illegals and surrenders to AlQaida, you can just remind yourself there is no difference between McCain and Obama, whatever. I am so sick of listening to the belly aching I do not much give a rat’s ass anymore.

Branch Rickey on May 6, 2008 at 2:28 PM

I’ll give you that one. When I think of McCain and the gang of 14, it makes my blood boil. I railed against that back when I backed Romney. But reality is reality, and I’m voting for McLaim come November. I think we really need to pull for Republican Senators and Representatives, because that’s where we still have a chance to get some real conservative voices.

I feel certain that Obama will get the DEM nomination, but I don’t believe the goal of Operation Chaos is to choose the candidate, but rather to create CHAOS! Without Op Chaos, Obama would already be the DEM nominee and it’s for sure the MSM would leave him unscathed. The longer this has gone on, the more polarizing it’s been to the DEMs. You all know how long it perhaps took you to get over your GOP guy dropping from the race! I am a FredHead and it still gripes me. McCain was tied for last with Huck and Ron Paul in my book, but I’ve had time to adjust and get my mind around this thing. So, the longer this chaos continues the less time DEMs will have to adjust. Then, couple that with the fact that half of them are going to be declaring either racism or sexism, it’s just a mess. Op Chaos has been a success. Unless something awful (Biblical proportions) happens, McCain will be the POTUS. Was he my choice at the primary level? HELL NO! But I’ll take him over BHO or HRC any day.
