1. true, that
McCain didn't get what he wanted, Ridge or Loserman.

If he was his own man, he'd have his own man.

5. If John McCain believed in "country first"
he wouldn't have picked an unqualified ill-prepared candidate as his V.P.

12. He's demonstrated he's beholden to James Dobson and Big Oil
with his choice.

8. Ah, mzmolly, you really hit the nail on the head!
If we had a functioning media, we would hear this from them.

9. Well, that just shows his lack of EXECUTIVE experience.
I guess Palin should be at the top of the Republican ticket.

13. He hasn't been "his own man" for years, has he? He voted with Bush 95% of the time...
how is that in any way, shape or form a 'maverick'?

14. Palin's presence emasculates John. She's well-known for firing or forcing out men who she doesn't
trust, and from the way she shied away from his advances on stage after he stared at her ass and twirled his wedding band the whole time she was accepting the VEEP candidacy, I really think she doesn't trust him at all. She gives off the aura of someone who would stab him in the back to take his office.
