McCain has already made it clear that he's not going to engage in personal attacks or character assassination.

So if Republicans want that sort of low-blow stuff, they'll have to resort to "527" groups and their ads to make those points.

I think what he can do, is question some of the statements that some of Obama's advisers have made. In particular, Samantha Power's statement that "we need to go where the [Muslim] people are" and address their needs to discourage them from becoming terrorists. What if "where the [Muslim] people are" is that they want to drive Jews and Christians and gays out of their land? Should we go along with that?

is an oxymoron isn't it?

Are you being nice because it is Friday or did I miss something?

Which is pretty much why I'm home.

Anyway, psugrad: if you want to keep posting here, go directly here and type out "c17wife, I'm sorry that I directly insulted you." You're only getting this much slack because it's my birthday, which means that I'm in an uncommonly good mood at the moment.

Don't spoil it by arguing, or trying to explain. Just do it.

Heh, just getting you ready for all those fun songs that lil' guy will sing to you over the years.

Anthony knows some of the songs to Elmo's Blanket-hges really good at the doo doo doos, and the la la las. :-) Ah I love it so much.

one thing before the lancing commences...

I don't agree with the label of 'opportunist' for McCain at all for any of those reasons- I for one think he actually believes he's "doing the right thing" when he votes the way he does- just don't necessarily agree that Dean was referring to McCain's military service when he called him an "opportunist". Sorry for not explaining that earlier.

putting an ad out now makes him look like the big kid on the block, while the two Dems bicker and squabble. Maybe Dean should not let his folks provide the opportunity in the first place?

As a Fredhead, I am starting to consider calling the local GOP office and joining John's team. Nothing can unite the GOP like seeing Hillary or Barrack on the other side.

So does that mean Boothe has "come out" as a Hollywood conservative?
Hope he has a good agent.

John Kerry's whole service career smelled of opportunism. You have to respect that he went there and did the job, but you certainly don't have to respect his apparent motivations based on his actions and conduct upon returning.

John McCain was a stand-up guy and was more than generous with defending Kerry when he didn't deserve it. Democrats can't now go after McCain by denigrating him for his service.

McCain's service, especially his service as a POW, goes right to the HEART in terms of qualities desired in a president. McCain has walked the walk. He knows what pain is. He knows the cost of war, and the pain of losing one. Not only is his service not out of bounds, but it actually IS very much in-bounds.

McCain looked extremely presidential. I'm more and more convinced that McCain is going to positively shellac HillObama in November. I predict McCain takes California. I'm glad to jump on the bandwagon and encourage others to do the same.

"Where is the audacity of hope when it comes to backing the success of our troops all the way to victory in Iraq? What we heard last night was the timidity of despair. - John McCain

The only way McCain takes California is if there's a huge third party boost somewhere, as in 10-20% of the vote going to Nader or someone. I don't see that happening.

That or he announces he's pro-abort. I don't see that happening either.

pro-abort, that is.. Just saying.. while holding onto safety tree... (needing a laugh at someone's expense)

or if the dems go to the convention o_O

Is that supposition or do you have some facts to support your statement? If what you are saying is true, I would not be "Okay with that." I would, however, need to see some concrete evidence first. Given that McCain has been in the public eye for decades and run for President more than once, I would think that this would have come out before now.

Semper Fi

to do it again.
He is just antagonizing, to see how far he can push.
So far, he has gone just to the edge. :>)
Luckily, I don't get too worked up about ones like him. Unless they are my children, then it is to your room, buddy!

I don't want to encourage the thread jack, but McCain divorced his wife 11 years after her car accident (I know of no evidence that she was "disfigured") and her and McCain are still close. Had he divorced her because she got in a car accident it would be unseemly, but there is no credible case for causation between the two events. So yeah, I'm still "OK" with McCain. Although I'm not OK with ridiculous off topic digressions.
