...is a democrat, in so many ways, and he's not really my first choice, since he's not a conservative. The problem was, Bush isn't really one either.

If, however, you want someone who exemplifies honestly, experience, bipartisanship and who has truely suffered for this country, their names are not, Clinton, Obama or Edwards. Heck, they aren't even Romney, Huckabee, or Thompson. McCain is at the top of the list.

Rudi, on the other hand, once had a job so dangerous, he had to wear body armor. I'd say he gets street cred for that.

So, the next time someone reels out the candidates resumes' show them McCains.

RE:'And if McCain was a Democrat, would you still be a supporter?? Still a wonderer!'

Great question. To tell you the truth, I sometimes wonder if John McCain isn't a Democrat. I think I would be more likely to vote for him if he WERE a Democrat. Not because I am particularly fond of the Democrats Platform, but because it would make me think of him as being more honest. Okay, okay. As honest as politicians EVER are.

The sad truth is, it is difficult to find everything you want in a single candidate. Everyone is unique and it is nearly impossible to find someone with whom you will agree one-hundred percent of the time. I do look for someone who seems to have philosophical compass of some sort, but that kind of politician has become so rare that it is pointless to hope for one anymore. If McCain has such a compass, and many claim that he does, it is very hard for me to follow his reasoning at times. Teaming up with Ted Kennedy on immigration and then giving the Teddyman full sway over the legislation? What was he thinking?!

Let me put it this way. If it comes down to a choice between McCain and Obama, I will flip a coin. If it comes down to a choice between Obama and Romney, I'll vote for Obama. I haven't gotten over what a disaster Richard Nixon was and I am not complaining about the Watergate mess. It was the other stuff he did that still infuriates me. If it were a choice between Huckabee and Obama, I'd vote for Obama. I think Obama pays lip-service to faith. Huckabee means it. We just had a dose of that and I don't think we need another one. I would likely vote for Rudy over any Democrat and I would vote for Fred Thompson over any Democrat.

Didn't help much, huh?

RE:'Bush wanted to be a 'domestic( president ?Oh boy Noharness,you must have lost some marbles in the game.'

No, as it happens, Tonny, the Bushbaby was governor of my state. I have good reason to think I know more about him than you do.

RE:'Behing Bush there have always been the neocons,their message was never domestic.consider the fact that CHeney holds more power in reality than Bush,who left for years all decisions in the hands of a small cabale.'

Now there, you see? You just ruined your own argument. The Bushbaby did not want to worry with them foreners. He left all that cow-hockey up to Dick and the boys while he took care of the important stuff.

Oh, here's a little quote from Colonel Wilkerson I found in the Wikipedia:
'My party is not the party that I became a member of many years ago.'

Well, he's right and you have heard me say much the same thing on these very forums, Tonny. I suppose what upsets you about me is that I despise the Democrats a wee bit more than I do the Goopers. Too bad, you'll just have to become accustomed to it. Oh, and the BBC isn't transmitting that interview anymore. All I get is an apology for their not being able to 'bring it to you.'
