    We should get that info and send it to the talk shows.
    Laura Ingraham has been hitting this hard (about McCain almost switching to the Democratic Party).

    Laura also said she is voting for Romney in the primary, and is urging her listeners to do the same. She is a real conservative, unlike McCain.

    McCain....

    Ughh, I thought he was smug and arrogant in the debate, with his little laugh. He may as well be a Democrat. Keeping in mind I'm an independent voter, I have NO desire to vote for McCain.

    I'm so happy to hear Ronal Reagan's son speak up.

    DOWN with McCain

    The pauses before he answers difficult questions about "conservative priority issues" as well as other issues, has always disturbed me. Now, it is ME who sees something that disturbs ME. Its not that he has a poker-players "tic" or anything like that. "I" see something that "I" dislike & definitely distrust.

    The hiring of the pro-illegal alien Hispanic community outreach coordinator, is a clear sign to me we have a man who intends amnesty before any real border security & who may even only pay lip service to the security issues while touting how tough he is on the issue.

    As some on this list know, "MY" particular problem with security is that no candidate, even the one I favor, has yet to give me a complete & through explanation about what legal activities take place "between" the legal border crossing checkpoint gates, and what is the economic value of that activity.

    I know there is legal activity important to those who live along the border. I know that activity is important to those folks & I also feel we must find the ways necessary to accommodate those needs or to "fairly" compensate for any losses a fence may impose on a property owner. I quote fairly because I feel rarely does the government place the same value on property lost as the market does. Compensation must reflect the market, not what a bureaucrat thinks they can get away with.

    McCain's reaction some time back that he would build the "g-d fence if that's what they want," spoke huge volumes to me. It was condescending, smug, self important, and patronizing, all in one sentence. "I" am one of the "THEY" John McCain is referring to. So to are most of the folks who post on this site. "WE" want our borders secured and we want our flawed immigration system fixed, long before anyone talks of pathways to citizenship &/or guest-worker programs, most of us feel are not needed to begin with.

    90% John. 90% effective. If John McCain can justify no fence, by explaining away why a fence will not work, when our two best examples show 90% effectiveness, then I will vote for him. The Duncan Hunter inspired San Diego stretch and the Israeli inspired terrorist impediment fences, have obviated all contentions a fence will not work. In addition, how can a fence be described as ineffective, when no such fence exists along the majority of the border?

    McCain is like Chertoff. The DHS Secretary keeps telling us he has over 170 miles of fencing up and will have 670 miles of fencing done by year end 2008. He just forgot to mention t he fencing he is referring to, is not, is no where close to, the double layered security fencing that was approved in the Secure Fence Act. They plan to put up a flimsy, ineffective fence and then tell us the fence does not work. The public will pay millions, but get crap. And I see John McCain standing beside it self righteously telling us, "I told you so!"

    Romney may not be the best conservative candidate this nation can field, but he is the most conservative running, who has a chance of winning nationally. No other candidate can bring together enough votes nationally to win the election, no matter how laudable their positions are. And that is exactly what McCain is counting on. With only Romney in his way, the attack ads against Romney will start to unfold. I assure you, according to Senator McCain, none of them will be attributable to him though. Just like he never attacks people as he says Romney does, shortly after lying to people in Florida & telling them Romney called for a "date certain" troop withdrawal. Even the media called him on that one. Of course as planned, he was called on it only "after" the Florida elections, so objections could never have affected the outcome there where he got his latest momentum.

    Reagan is right, McCain hates him, I'd bet he is a closet Ronald Reagan hater to boot. But, Reagan the son can take comfort in the reality that McCain also hates the rest of us conservatives & especially Reagan conservatives.

    The press call McCain a "moderate." Its funny how "moderate" is always defined by the press and Democrats, when describing a position we conservatives call left of center. Democrats, with the help of a complicit media, have redefined center to mean left of center. The center conservatives have always referred to, has now been demonized by the Democrats & media as an extremist right-wing position. Its funny how compromise has come to mean conservatives are to give significantly more than they will ever get.

    I still contend McCain & the Republican party, including conservatives, are being set-up by Democrats & their media hacks, who know in a national election they can eviscerate John McCain & make him look the doddering old fool, which is how Republicans are already defined by Democrats. We are called the party of the past. Ironically, the positions of Democrats represent the failed political philosophies of the past like socialism.

    McCain is one of the DINOSAURS we need to get rid of.
    When we make them "extinct" we can get our country back.
    How about a RINOSAUR??
