Thread: Who is John McCain?

Who is John McCain?
- Monday, January 14, 2008 @ 2:45:57 PM

Here's the deal, folks: The New York Times has some damaging goods on John McCain, reportedly involving a female lobbyist. McCain threatened legal action if the Times printed the story. The Times backed off... for now. But you can be sure the Times will unload on McCain if he nails down the GOP nomination. Meanwhile, Tim Carney (of the Novak report) highlighted a smelly McCain deal in the Examiner last week. And today, the Washington Post reports that David Keene of the American Conservative Union "is examining a loan McCain took out to keep his campaign afloat."

Then, of course, there is his legendary, out-of-control, inexcusable temper. His profanity-laced tirade against the unfailingly decent John Cornyn last year during the immigration debate was something straight out of the Captain Queeg playbook. He was one step short of demanding that Cornyn be court-martialed for swiping the strawberries.

When John McAngry loses his halo, he has nothing left. He will be mincemeat for the liberal Democrats in the fall.

He still hasn't called me back about the $50/hr lettuce picking job...

Something weird going on. McCain was about broke some months back and now the media has gotten behind him and he's a major contender. So what caused that? Someone has a stradegy going on here and I'm sorry, don't believe it's because of the public.

I thought there was talk several months ago about how poorly McCain was doing,very low funds left and it seemed like he was basically being counted out , now he seems to be making an incredible comeback.Strange.

McCain is 71, would be 72 when he took office if elected and 76 when his term ended. Is odd the Rupublicians would run a one term president and thats what McCain would be if he completes a full term

Think part of the key is to consider who they are going to run as his vice president--someone that couldn't be elected on his own merit now but is pro big business, pro illegal immigration and NAU

"When in Mexico the U.S. State Department reminds U.S. citizens to avoid participating in demonstrations and other activities that might be deemed political by Mexican authorities. The Mexican Constitution prohibits political activities by foreigners, and such actions may result in detention and/or deportation."
