I really like Huckabee but he is about to undo all of the good he has done if he doesn't concede. As much as I would like him to be the nominee the numbers just don't add up and he should quit. It is mathamatically impossible for him to get the nomination. I believe after the Texas and Ohio primaries he will pull out. Hopefully this exposure will set him up for four or eight years from now.

I agree that as much as I dislike Hillary Obama scares me more. Reading between the lines I believe he is probably an out and out socialist. Without a doubt he is the most liberal Presidential canidate to ever be this close to a major party's nomination.

I think his wifes statement that her husbands political success is the FIRST time she has been proud of America in her adult life speaks volumes. That is the victim mentality at it's worst. If she doesn't think America has done anything to deserve her pride all of her adult life then she has no business as the first lady of America.

With all her collegiate back ground, that was a really stupid thing for her to say! Can you imagine her hosting foreign dignitaries? It will be disastrous! With all the time she spent at Harvard--you think she would know better.

I know me too, and something about those 2 in the white house worries me, besides he has no experience, but basically leans on his ability to stir up a crowd.

Huckabee said he believed in miracles. lol

If it were Huckabee, I'd definately have to rethink my vote.

What is this, the National Enquirer?

We dont know that McCain had an affair with a lobbyist. Even the NYTimes isn't saying he did, although thats seems to be the conclusion they want their readers to reach. Right now its just innuendo and supposition.

Maybe he did, but maybe he did not. But how about we wait and see how the facts develop, before we go announcing the man had an affair?

Opps I'll place a question mark, if that helps any.

Well I rephrased it.

This is election time and I am sure people will be posting link to all kind of alleged misbehaving by both sides.

I do not think anyone here is accusing McCain of an affair.

Maybe the whole thing is a multi-layered misinformation campaign to make a very old pale guy not look quite so morgue-esk when compared with a young man of color.

If you can be a seriously-seasoned-citizen, on a presidential campaign circuit and still have something in the tank for sneaking around on your already junior wife....the old geezer moniker will have a hard time sticking.

but....
if it turns out he actually is a serial adulterer....my last thin, thread of republican voting inclination will be snapped. If the rumor mill becomes a truth, and with so much on the line for him at this point in his life journey, it would speak not only of a core character flaw, but also his inability to assess the weightiness of the TIMES.

Now the New York Times is reporting a story of events that took place during the 2000 elections. Here is the story:

Does John McCain have a "character deficit"?

Sure. He doesn't have the Holy Ghost. And he's a politician. Talk about easy questions . . .

The New York Times endorsed John McCain. Is this story's timing political? (C'mon, of course it is.)

Both?

The fact that the NYT sat on this story for 8 years is the telling clue. There is too much focus on the upcoming battle in the Democrat primary, and so this is an effort to step up the drama in the Republican primary. Make no mistake, all the liberal media support for John McCain will disappear like a snowflake in the Sahara in the national campaign. There are two reasons for the media treating him favorably leading up to this election:
1) They have calculated that he cannot win the national election (they may even have some part to play in this)
2) They have calculated that, if elected, he will not be a threat to the advancement of the leftist/liberal agenda.

Is McCain sold out to Washington lobbyists though he claims not to be?

Who knows? Maybe this last hope for his genuine Maverick-ness is what the NYT is holding evidence in reserve for to dash.

What are some of your thoughts?

It's a tough nut no matter how you crack it.

If you'd like to see a campaign drumming up its own sensationalism take a look at all the women swooning at Obama rallies.

It's tough to know whether our post-adultery nation will maintain a double standard or acquiesce to hedonism on all sides.

If this is sincere, then you have played right into their hands. They are hoping to get a large block of disillusioned conservatives to sit out like what happened in 2006. Don't give up hope. Any of these three disastrous candidates can be mitigated by electing conservative representatives. The press knows that, and that is why there has been ZERO coverage of the state and local races. They want conservatives ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED and ready to opt out.

NEVER GIVE UP!!!!!

"We shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air. We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing-grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills. We shall never surrender!"

Sir Winston Churchill
