The McCain campaign has not only failed to enthuse Republicans, but left many conservatives depressed and ready for a November defeat, said Richard A. Viguerie, Chairman of ConservativeHQ.com.

    Well, you see, they knew what they were doing when they chose the commercial slogan for an anti-depressant as the motto for the 2008 campaign.

    'The Change You Deserve'.

      "The Change You Deserve"?

      I thought that referred to John McLame's Depends.

      That was 6 months ago when Sen McCain was running against Republicans. Now he is running against a former Muslim, an extremely liberal candidate that has the very liberal voting record, but is trying to pass himself off as a centrist. Actually, if you listened to him recently you would think he is running for President Bush's third term. He even voted for the FISA bill he promised a couple months ago to filibuster.

    Viguerie says Conservatives are depressed for the same reason Jesse Jackson say Obama speaks down to black people. They both see their influence over Conservatives, and Liberals sliding away. Today's Democrats, and Republicans can choose their Presidential candidate all by themselves, and it is killing the oldtimers fading into the past.

    And once again Sen McCain is running against a former Muslim who sat in the TUCC for 20 years listening to Rev Jeremiah Wright curse, and damn America, accusing her of heinous crimes, even subjecting his minot children to such rants, and now Obama wants our vote for President, and thinks he can lie his way to the Oval office. Sorry. He makes Senator McCain look like a political genius.

      Irrelevent comment. Who cares about the Rev. Wright issue, it is dead, bring on something tangible to discuss about Obama or shut up, you sound totally ridicious at this point.

    What kind of fuzzy thinking would lead these guys to think of voting for Obama because McCain isn't conservative enough? I sure would be leery of anyone who is on the right side of these fuzzy thinkers.

      The problem for guys like Viguerie is that McCain is not a SOCIAL nutcase; fiscally, he's far more conservative than Bush could ever hope to be, but he doesn't go for the "fire and brimstone, scorched earth" group, so they tear him down. Agents of intolerance indeed.

        Jose, you can't be sure of McCain on anything to make a comment like you have! See the article hereon yesterday on "McCain's 61 Flip-flops and Counting"? Obviously you didn't!

      I can see why the conservatives are depressed. George has a 22% approval rating, McCain's got nothin' but "W's" legacy and the Democrats will probably win a 2/3rds majority in both houses of Congress to go along with President Obama.

      However, Republicans like to put strange, non-factual and imaginative spins on issues. This November will not be the reality of a stunning and overwhelming defeat with a new Democratic Pres and a 2/3rds Demo Congress, Conservatives will call it, an all part of the plan, "Strategic Re-evaluation" or some other euphuism for tired, humiliated losers.

        "I can see why the conservatives are depressed. George has a 22% approval rating"

        Rasmussen has it at 32%, and if Bush were a conservative then we'd have reason to be depressed. Except on taxes, where his influence was JFK, Bush is an LBJ clone. He loves big, interventionist government.

          "Caps Lock" It's on the Democrat side of your keyboard about three feet to the right of your Obama button, see it? This time, only push it once and everything will go back to Republican (normal).

            Food for thought...

            WHAT IF Obama's profound lack of experience causes him to really screw up himself and the country? Is he really ready for this job? If not, is he the best candidate?

            Business experience: zero

            Military experience: zero

            Foreign relations experience: zero

            Budgeting experience: zero

            Management experience: zero

            Employee experience: almost zero

            Union work experience: zero

            Diplomatic experience: zero

            Negotiating experience: zero

            Bi-partisan legislative experience: zero

            Healthcare experience: zero

            Bill drafting experience: zero

            If McCain had the above qualifications, I would be the first to say that he is clearly not qualified and SO WOULD YOU, but Obama has great speaking skills so you buy it all? I am not the biggest McCain fan, but come on....

          It's pointless to discuss this with you braindead leftitards. You'd vote for Obama if you discovered that he roasted small children.
