John McCain’s military career was laudable and his time in a Vietnameese prison camp is deserving of the up most respect, that being said that was 3 decades ago. The John McCain of today has given us a campaign finance reform bill that opened a watershed of funding for the progressive left. He authored immigration reform that if it had passed would have made a mockery of our laws. John McCain has become the very thing that Ronald Reagan railed against , a voice that is destroying the conservative heart of the republican party.He has become a progressive. Sarah Palin and Scott Brown have the right to tie their fates to this falling republican star but they need to remember that he will show them the same loyalty that they are showing him.This man will do anything it takes to ensure that his political career extends until this time on this earth is done. He has no quams about running the conservatives into the ground or destroying the republican party as long as his political legacy continues. The time has come for John to do whats best for conservatives and republicans and retire. He is not now nor do I think he ever was a Ronald Reagan republican. If he were then his actions would have shown it As a retired Light Attack sailor he should be able to understand that he’s been catching the 4 wire lately. Every politician comes to the end of their time in office does he have ability to leave with dignity? That has yet to be seen.

But you need to make that a little more readable. Put in some spaces between paragraphs.

Flesh it out a bit more and you will get more readers.

Welcome to RedState, glad to have you here. Hope to see you in the comments some time.

conform and celebrate diversity….or else!!!

of tagging McCain correctly as a Progressive Republican.

I love when his daughter Meghan McCain proudly called herself a Progressive Republican on the View. She went on to say that it’s young people like her that will bring on a revolution, not the 65 year olds. Johnny is something like 73. I just can’t wait to see what kind of revolution she is referring to. She is as much an idiot as her father.

 

rec'd, Bill...

Fully agree with your message Bill. McCain is as big, if not bigger, an enemy to conservatives as leftist progressives are. One of the previous diaries outlines his true character as a progessive “oportunist” and nothing more. I fully agree.

 

McCain should do an Arlen Specter

He is a 2-faced, shallow political hack. I knew he was scared when we got a robo call endorsing McCain from Scott Brown the DAY AFTER the Massachusetts election. He is running JD Hayworth attack ads on talk radio, making the Fox News rounds, and tons of robo calls. So all of a sudden he’s a conservative. In the meantime, his daughter is crucifying the tea party. Tha apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. He will be conservative only long enough to win the primary and election. Then he will revert back to his progressive roots.
