McCain & Jebbie in 2008?

[Zinfandel]

Now that's scary, and probable, (still a long ways away) Jeb couldn't win jack shit nationally...

But when it's 100% republican owned electronic voting machines, across the country, the republicans can steal anything, anytime they choose. It's fascism we live under, it's not a joke...I know you know it, most don't.

There's no way the corporate fascist can allow a Democrat to expose all of Jr. (he hates being called junior) and Cheney's secrets (9-11, energy policy, Iraq lies, etc.)

I look for something like the article below states, to actually happen.

I really believe the republicans can get away with stealing ANY election with their machines with only, say, 30% of support....That 30% can make enough noise of support with the republican owned corporate media following Rove's (cause this fucker ain't going away) daily talking point memos, lying why the republicans "won" this or that election!

And then, in 2016 Ta-Da -- the Rove created, born and bred Fascist Monster....Musclehead!

(We've got to stop this monster in California, the way Bush should of been stopped in Texas...Now with the bullshit "Help America Vote Act"
and the republican owned electronic voting machines flooding in nationwide...)



McCain May Be Bush's Ticket

McCain-Bush in 2008?

That would be John and Jeb, the most logical Republican ticket if the party remains in the polling doldrums. If President Bush and his political maestro, Karl Rove, decide that the only way to create a political legacy is to nod toward the Arizona senator with whom they have battled and feuded, they will go for the guy who can win.

This scenario was outlined to me recently by a shrewd and loyally Democratic political operative with personal ties to the McCain camp before Mark McKinnon, one of the president's top media advisers, publicly confirmed that he would help a McCain presidential run if it materialized.

Times change and politicians do what they have to do. For years, McCain and the president couldn't stand each other. The surest way not to get a job in the early Bush administration was to have supported McCain over Bush in the 2000 primaries.

But McCain made a crucial decision to alter the relationship in 2004. Courted hard by John Kerry as a potential running mate, McCain said no. He decided he wanted to be president and that it was unlikely he would ever get a Democratic nomination -- and implausible that he could win as an independent. His one shot was as a Republican.

Once this choice was made, everything else fell into place. McCain joined the Bush crowd. He gave a powerful speech endorsing the president at last year's Republican National Convention in New York. The address was perfect for both McCain and Bush. Unlike the speeches bashing Kerry and the Democrats by Zell Miller, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Rudy Giuliani, McCain's stuck to policy and praised Bush for his decision to go to war in Iraq.

8. Didn't I hear somewhere that Ma and Pa Bush are friends with

Hinckley's family?

4. The GOP machine will never let McCain run, no matter how much he sucks up.

They might permit Jeb Bush / John McCain. . . maybe. But never the other way around. Personally, I'd like to see a Santorum / Miller ticket.

Santorum & Miller: Because leadership should be crazybatshitinsane.

5. Better yet, Lobby your congressmen for this bill.

The VVPB bill which will eliminate ballot secrecy and unverified counts, which while are still in effect, allow democrats & republicans to cheat.

Rush Holt's legislation has over 136 co-sponsors already, get your congress to sign it. Especially demand it in CA to supercede Governator's election!!!

7. Karl Rove vs Newt Gingrich

I would love to see another Rove organized Bush campaign go up against, in other words slander, a Newt Gingrich group. That would be entertaining. Rove would have to support Jeb because he is bush, but don't think McCain would have anything to do with them after he was slandered so bad in 2,000. Rove is the master of slander.

9. unfortunately

I think McCain has become such a political animal that he won't let the past defamation of his character become a liability. That image of McCain fiercely embracing Bush is stuck in my mind. Bush was part of the heinous attacks on McCain in South Carolina during the primary -- the same Swiftboat Liars for Hire and their McCain as a traitor talk (fueled by the same oil money from the Texas oilmen funds who smeared Kerry). And the push polling..."if you were to find out that John McCain had an illegitimate mixed race child, would that affect your vote?"
Yet instead of vilifying the Bush machine when they used the same tactics on Kerry, McCain was rather cool and distant. He had his chance to castigate these tactics. And he wobbled with "I don't think someone's military career should be an issue."
Weak.
He's gone over to the dark side.
