Back on February 8th, I posted about the nexty lefty meme being that McCain is not eligible to be President because he was born at Coco Solo Air Base in the Panama Canal Zone, August 29, 1936. Now, the New York Times jumps in with one of those “we are just wondering for the sake […]

Where is the audacity of hope when it comes to backing the success of our troops all the way to victory in Iraq? What we heard last night was the timidity of despair. Our allies deserve better, our soldiers deserve better, and so do the American people.” John McCain. Video via Stop The ACLU Ace […]

An interesting opinion piece at USA Today, Should Conservatives Back Mac? by Jonah Goldberg (hat tip JonJayRay at Stop the ACLU) There are lots of reasons, some good, some bad, for conservatives’ angry dyspepsia toward McCain. I have bouts of it myself. From campaign-finance reform, to his proposed amnesty for illegal immigrants to his general tendency […]

Better late then never (not my fault, see previous post) Fred Thompson, the one-time Republican presidential candidate, endorsed Sen. John McCain Friday, calling on the party to “close ranks” behind the presumed nominee. “This is no longer about past preferences or differences.

From Mitt’s presidential site Today, addressing the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), Governor Romney announced that he was suspending his presidential campaign for the sake of Republican unity and the future of our country.

Read her whole take on this kefuffle Okay fine. Not your ideal Republican, despite his pro-war, pro-killin’-terrorists record. But. But. BUT. Just what in the hell kind of crack are Ann Coulter and lots of other conservatives (even the normally brilliant Michelle Malkin) smoking when they say they won’t vote for him if he’s the […]

Interesting reading from Victor David Hanson Despite McCain’s 82-percent career ranking by the American Conservative Union, and his support for balanced budgets, an end to pork-barrel spending and earmarks, strong support for the war, and expressed regret over once supporting the Bush illegal immigration reform package, McCain was branded by the conservative media as a […]

 Morning, y’all Jebediah Murphy here with some of that truthiness stuff. Apparently, quite a few Florida seniors thought they were voting for Pat Buchannan Sen. John McCain last night became the man to beat for the Republican presidential nomination, edging out Mitt Romney to win the Florida primary and ending the bid of one-time […]

Via Sith Master Rusty, a Mitt! press release By our calculation, a family of four would have to spend about an extra $1,000 a year if McCain-Lieberman became law. And again that’s because gasoline would rise in price by approximately .50 cents a gallon and natural gas would rise about 20 percent….. And what’s particularly […]
