It was worth every click, too. Would that McConnell would take your suggestion under advisement!

Unfortunately Martin we both know Mitch won’t do that. But I’d gladly pay to see it happen.

In the course of an interview when you are confronted with the statement from the reporter that says,

Well, Senator McCain said…

you are forever required to immediately cut them off and respond thusly,

It is the sense of the Republican caucus that Senator McCain does not now, nor for a very long time represent our views.

Yours truly,

Your Constituent (you know, the guy that pulls the lever for your election….or not…)

McCain is back in his comfort zone where he is attacking Republicans and the darling of the press in that role. Unfortunately, the RNC and Republicans in general fail to learn the basic lessson of nominaing candidates like Dole and McCain who are more interested in their version of “honor” than winning an election.
I haven’t given money in years to the RNC because of it’s ineptitude bu would gladly contribute to a conservative challenger to McCain in Arizona in 2010.
McCain’s campaign mantra should have been “McCain first, not country first”.

Senator McCain.

I wish to honestly thank you for two things and advise you regarding a additional matters.

First. Your service to The United States Of America as an officer of The United States Navy and going into harms way more than anyone should ever be required to do. Your fortitude under unspeakable conditions as a P.O.W. is beyond reproach.

Second. It is an honor to know your dedication to The United States Of America is at the forefront of everything you do.

Now then, in all honesty, I can’t believe that you believe that you can still “reach across the aisle” and work with people like Harry Reid and “The One”. They are dangerous at minimum and quite possibly traitorous in their words and actions.

On to another subject……… With all due respect Senator, don’t you ever and I mean DON’T EVER think of running for any other office again. In fact, I’d take it as a personal favor if tomorrow, you’d announce you’re not seeking re-election to The Senate. If you do decide to attempt another term, or seek another office, you haven’t the slightest idea what ‘The Wrath Of RedState’ will bring down upon thy personage in rebuttal of oratory and counter-campaigning in positive concert with your primary opponents.

In the matter of Governor Palin, how dare you, Sir….. HOW DARE YOU be part of besmirching such a fine American. The sole reason you received more than (I think this is a good guess) 25 percent of the popular vote was because of Governor Palin. If anybody ever again asks you about Governor Palin, please simply say, “A fine American, a true patriot and she will indeed be on the national scene restoring America to greatness.”

When in doubt of the seriousness of all this, please re-read the previous items and understand I have ‘a slight affinity’ for my country as well. You and I just see things a tad differently.

Thank you for your time and God Bless America.

We need more dividers, fewer uniters.

With all due respect for those who believe that McClown is unassailable in the 2010 primaries, he needs a stiff challanger anyway. Just for the principle, if nothing else. I’d be willing to predict that either Shaddegg, Flake or Hayworth would set a record for contributions, in state and out.

I would hope that Senator McCain would have more to say about the culture of corruption in Illinois than in speaking out against those who would call out Democrats for said corruption. I assume he did that, and the press simply ignored the comments and ran with the red meat.

A lot of assumption here… Not going to spin up… Must not get ticked at McCain…despite a completely inept campaign…

Oh good grief, Martin Knight. Did you forget to bring your brain with you again today? And by the way, please respect the no profanity rule here. ( kindly shut the #@$! up.) This is soooooooo unRepubnican. Did your mom never wash your mouth out with soap?

That is all.

BTW…he is a one trick pony, and he threw his rider into the rocks (Conservatives) with his one and only trick!

Time to send hom to the glue factory!

I think you are being to nice Martin….he should suck rotten eggs at the least…;^)

What McCain just did is why we lost the election. He doesn’t understand the people that he represents and really just doesn’t care. I’m guessing it was not the outpouring of youthful voters racing to the voting booth that put Obama in office, but the Republicans who decided it wasn’t worth a trip.

Obama played McCain - - talking about bi-partisanship, while al the while he was allowing his people to do just the opposite. You have to give him credit for his successful methods - - Chicago style.

McCain’s ‘reaching out’ is why he wouldn’t unleash Sarah….who brought his numbers up to a respectable level. He really should ask himself why that was.

“You have enemies? Good. That means you’ve stood up for something, sometime in your life.” Winston Churchill

or was that Colin Powell?

We all know McCain is not as quick as Bush. I am tired of these RINO’s going on tv as if he is the spokesperson for the GOP. Kind of like Obama supporter Colin Powell - Powell you know your not really a Republican - you just reaped the benefits from Republican you unloyal man!!!

I would hate to be one of John McCain’s “my friends” because he takes his friends and undermines them and beats them down and works hard to promote the liberals and help them in any way he can!!!

McCain you lost, now go away!!! Because of you McCain we got Obama - for goodness sakes Arizona please please do not reelect this man, let him retire and retire soon like 2010 or sooner!!!

I have to point out this incredible contrast.

How can someone who has shown such valor in his fight to defend America be so incredibly weak in defending his ideology? My only conclusion is that it isn’t his ideology. He claims to be a Reagan Republican, but I think it would be more fitting to call him a Reagan Democrat, because the reason he aligned with Reagan was his patriotism, not his ideology.

belong to a class that seems to believe in the moral inferiority of their own ideology. They all have incredible personal valor, but seem embarrassed to fight for their own ideology. We need to cultivate a class of politicians who care more for advancing conservatism than they care security guest spots on Letterman.

we should never forget everything mcCain says like this, and i hope that someone challenges him for his seat, thanks to mcCain we ended up wiht hopebama as president. i hope the leadership slaps him down and now we have to keep our eyes out for things such as comprehensive imagration reform code for amnesty. please stay in touch with your rep or congressman.

You fraud, you poltroon, you pompous twit.
Give me my money back.
With all respect due you,

I really, really tried to be enthusiastic about McCain’s candidacy. But when I tried to convince someone to vote for McCain, I always found myself talking down the messiah rather than talking up McCain. Whenever I tried to talk him up, I felt like phony.

But, I had no trouble explaining why Sarah Palin was good for America!

McCain disappointed in so many ways.

I want my money back too.

of the NY Times, just like the good old days. All is forgiven on both sides, the honorarium “Maverick” taken off the shelf and dusted, and uncountable appearances on the Sunday talk shows. What a relief to our hero Senator, and what a return gift to the media.

First time to return to RS and things seem to have changed so much already.

Telling McCain to suck a lemon seems so harsh… and yet so appropriate.

I support any effort that will destroy the “lies of bipartisanship”!!! Corruption by Democrats and RINOs as well as the bailout epidemic in America must be immediately stopped!

nominating Ron Paul and Mike Huckabee as President and Vice President picks. Both could keep the other one in check and win the 2008 election.

John McCain has turned into a Democrat in Republican’s clothing once again. No longer the Maverick, had he been the Maverick once again he might have won the election.

Even Barack Obama is more of a Republican than John McCain is, no wonder Obama won the electrion.

how the left felt about Lieberman

…is why we are loosing elections and why we will continue to.

Why should we stoop to McCain’s level? Why don’t we just ignore flaring infighting and work together with moderates to build a coalition that can win again.

Great parody of angry conservatives who get so mad they could spit when ever they encounter a different opinion. What? This isn’t parody? This post is serious

Why bother pointing fingers if you do not understand that bipartisanship is the source of ALL our frustrations. Lose your ideology and you have nothing.
Just as you do not negotiate with terrorists, you DO NOT cave to “progressives” or “moderates”.
Period.

like terrorists and not comprimise, than you’ll see no progress, and that’s something anybody with two brain cells ought to be able to figure out.

as Mbecker, how do you expect to marginalize and ignore the super majority in Congress and the White-House, planning on rebelling from the government?

Look, maybe you ought to follow the advice of Jesus when he says, Judge not. You won’t find anyone more against abortion than me, I have a strong belief in originalist judges, and a deep love for this country. I will live, and by God’s grace would die for my faith. I have many faults, not standing for anything is not one of them.
“don’t expect you’ll be standing by me either when necessary. You’ll have already turned and run, just like all the moderates and independents that said we needed to nominate someone in the middle that could work across the aisle. When election day came, they stayed home, or voted their guilt.”
Well, unless the dems nominate someone who’s good on judges and is pro-life, I think I’ll be with you on election day.

if you mean I will probably never vote for president or congress someone who is pro-choice or supports non-originalist judges. But I thought you were for not compromising and standing up for principle. I do take other issues into consideration so in that way I am not a SIVV.

Closing it now.

Yes, I’m disappointed in all of you for it.
