McCain to Enter 2008 Race in April

(02-28) 15:59 PST WASHINGTON (AP) --

Republican Sen. John McCain will officially enter the presidential race with a
formal announcement in early April.

The Arizona senator's campaign said he disclosed the timing of the long-expected
announcement in a taping for the "Late Show with David Letterman" on CBS. The
segment was set to air Wednesday night.

"I am announcing that I will be a candidate for president of the United States,"
the campaign quoted the senator as telling the talk show host.

There was no doubt that McCain would eventually become a full-fledged White
House candidate, and he had been expected to make his candidacy official in the
spring.

3. I felt sick after hearing all those people applaud him on Letterman

John McCain is a despicable piece of shit with no integrity. I hope it doesn't take too long for the public to realize this.

I may not have wanted him as our nominee but I always believed he had good intentions unlike Johnny the whore.

7. They would cheer anyone over anything.

And that proves it.

I agree, McCain is just plain dirty. How anyone could believe one word that comes out of his mouth I do not know. But I think he would be easier for us to run against; I fear that Rudy will take NY and NJ, and then we are totally screwed.
