Does anyone like him also? If he is running i think i will vote for him. I also think i will vote for him in prelim because he has not taken any bribes and money from special intrest groups.

I really do like him too actually. He's a moderate, so I think he's too liberal for people like Rush.

His ideas on immigration, gun control and abortion just don't sit well with right wingers.

He's moderate and sensible in my opinion.

He sure says anything. "I'm going to be honest. I know a lot less about the economy than military and foreign policy issues. I still need to be educated." Nov. 26, 2005.

January 24, 2008: McCain responds when told that the economy is the most important issue in the campaign: "I'm very well-versed in economics."

He can equivocate all he wants, but as far as I'm concerned, he was busted cold on this one. Watch his response when he gets called on it. He laughs, ha, ha, hee, hee, giggle, giggle. Busted.

This is truly the beginning of a new deal. Obama promised change. He just didn't know that the people would be delivering it.

I'll add this, too. Listen to his comments in the video. He says "Frankly" his economic record is stronger than Romney's. Now, that's laughable. McCain has no economic record other than whatever votes he made as a senator.

This is truly the beginning of a new deal. Obama promised change. He just didn't know that the people would be delivering it.

I agree that McCain's strong point isn't economics but Romney's is. Apart from that McCain has it all over Romney on the issues and experience. McCain is improving his take on the economy.

In my very humble opinion, McCain is by far the best overall candidate for POTUS, followed by Obama.

Howe Itis

We should have Romney with running mate, McCain.

This is truly the beginning of a new deal. Obama promised change. He just didn't know that the people would be delivering it.

I liked McCain a lot in 2000, when he was more honest and straightforward. Now I think he's more concerned with getting elected than doing what he thinks is right. However, I'll still vote for him over any other candidate because I agree with a lot of his positions and I'm still holding out hope that he'll snap back into his old self if he gets in the oval office.

This is a vote fro GWB. IMO There is no difference between the two.

Anyone but McCain. He is the lowest of the low. Some of McCain's highlights:

• A neocon warmonger worse than Bush who will not only remain in Iraq for a "100 years" but promises to get us embroiled in yet more endless wars around the world.

• Meanwhile on the home front he will grant amnesty to 30 million illegal aliens and sell out what remains of American workers with more NAFTA 'free trade' nonsense. All of this part of a greater open borders philosophy, of course.

• In general McCain is clueless on economics and has voted against tax cuts while claiming publicly to favor them.

• A supporter of the PATRIOT Act and the Real ID proposal, he will beef up the U.S. federal police state and continue to attack Americans' civil liberties.

• McCain supports gun control and the censoring of free speech in the name of "campaign finance reform."

• The man also has a vicious temper which apparently has alienated many of his colleagues in Congress. Do you really want a man with a history of emotional instability in control of America's nuclear arsenal?

McCain is scum of the lowest denominator. Again, anyone but McCain.

That's an interesting thing to say. I am not sure if you aware that pretty much all the canidates are similiar from an idealogical point of view. In that we don't have the socialist party running against capatalist for example.

McCain of course has lined up behind Bush on many issues, as Clinton has. Obviously McCain being GOP guy has backed Bush alot more.

McCain is a Moderate. No insult intended, but I think that you associate all members of the GOP with Bush, and therofore a Repulican vote is a vote for Bush. Because Bush share the same ideals as most republicans, all repulicans are bad. That's pretty close minded.

Most republicans in fact DO back Bush on key issues. Just as most Dems would fall in line with Senator Harry Reid on most issues. This does not mean that a vote for Obama is a vote for Harry Reid.

McCain of course appeals to moderates. He has big differences on where he stands with firearms, has been an opponet of Bush's handling of the Iraq war for a long time, and opposed Bush's Tax cuts.

Look and see, Rush and all the Neo-cons hate Mccain and call him a liberal.
