Huckabee factor will galvanize Republican establishment,...
into swarming around McCain, I predict.

McCain for his part has already started talking like Bush, wanting to get rid of "pork barrel" and "earmark" spending, when all the while his state of Arizona benefits plenty from the same.

1. weirdly, a coworker on friday said he could support either
Clinton or McCain.

wtf?


I didn't say anything, but I will not go to that person for political advice! LOL! McCain is fricking looney.
And Clinton is palatable to someone who likes McCain.

bizarre.

2. I was hit weird by something I remember someone saying months ago,
that McCain's experience as a POW has affected his mental processes. I was appalled at the time, that someone would assail the POW experience, but now I am starting to think he might have retribution on his mind, too (sound familiar)?

I know a lobbyist in Arizona who doesn't care for McCain, mainly for his temper and thinking his is right all the time and noone knows more than him, and this person is an R.

So, now I am creeped out by the prospect of either one of them becoming the Republcian nominee. You know they are going to pull out all the stops, especially if a black man is running against them. Just like they thought Clinton came from the "wrong side of the tracks," and went about in every way they could to try and politically assassinate him, they will do it to Huckabee (also from Arkansas, and because they having no qualms about eating their own) and Obama.

Funny how McCain has seemingly forgiven the Bushes for their {political} war tactics.
