He’ll say the same thing if he wins and turns out to be as bad as Bush II.

Obamacare passed with no Republican votes at all.

The “stimulus” passed with zero Republican votes in the House and three in the Senate. There’s your first trillion dollar deficit. It wasn’t the last.

The Democrats in 2010, with this majority, extended all of the Bush tax rates. All of them.

The Democrats got their asses handed to them in the 2010 election. Across the states, too. They took the House in the largest victory since 1938. If Senate elections weren’t staggered, the Republicans would hold that branch, too.

I’m not going to go over the statistics. They’re out there. But think really hard: Given the current state of the economy, the Middle East, and everything else–If McCain were president right now, would you be supporting him getting four more years?

He has no principles, will shamelessly pander to anyone for votes,
will switch sides and positions for the benefit of the moment, and then switch back, will say anything he feels it is necessary to say to win. He speaks as if no one was paying attention, or as if no one had a memory. He is not immoral, he is amoral. Under different historical circumstances, he could just as easily have run as a Democrat. I don’t think it really matters to him. He doesn’t do it for money, or even for power. He does it because its his job.

The conservatives in his own party have always known this. The moderates are just starting to figure it out. The only reason they support him is the same reason they nominated him, because they hate Obama so much they can’t think straight any more. Obama humiliated their Great White Hope, the Bush administration. He exposed it for the pathetic sham it really was. The Right can never forgive Obama for that. They are willing to destroy themselves, along with the rest of us, to get their revenge.

“What can men do against such reckless hate?”

Romney is the perfect conservative candidate. If Mitt is elected, or if he is successful in getting his programs adopted, its because he was the conservative alternative. If he loses, or fails while in office. It will be because he wasn’t conservative enough. That’s how conservatives have always evaluated their candidates, how they have deconstructed reality. He really IS the best they could do.

But Romney isn’t what I mainly fear. If he doesn’t work out for the Right the way they had hoped, they are going to want to replace him.
And I don’t think they will be willing to wait for another election to do so. I fear for his safety as well as ours.

Now the facts are Obama was handed a disaster and then blocked in many efforts to fix it by the same people who caused it. The Congressional voting records don’t lie.

Most of the American people remember what your party did to us. Going from a $400B surplus to a $1T deficit, starting two wars and finishing neither, a financial meltdown and a collapsing economy losing 800k jobs/month. They know what Congress has been up to trying to block the recovery, and the polls are starting to show it.

And Romney being the most lightweight foreign policy candidate EVER is getting noticed too. Can this guy say or do anything in foreign policy without messing up?

Have you noticed how much of Obama’s campaign revolves around “this is what I could have done if I didn’t have political opposition?” A lot of people think he never intended this bill as anything except a way to blame Republicans for his economic failure.

He had two years to pass a “Jobs Act” when there was no effective Republican opposition.

Oh, wait, that’s right. He did.

Read what John McCain said about the arab spring in the thread below this one. I think he has a little more knowledge about it than whoever you are parroting.

Russia? LOL Yeah you and Mitt Romney think so. Russia who can barely hold on to their own provinces? Too funny. But Putin is crediting Mitt for proving his fears that the missile defense is not for Iran but for Russia. Nice job strengthening Putin’s negotiating hand there Romney.

China is a concern but I’d rather see Obama dealing with it than a buffoon like Romney.
