Conservatives and McCain

Postby Steve » June 3rd, 2008, 4:27 am

I work with a guy that was listening to a local talk radio show this morning. The host was asking why conservatives are not flocking to support McCain. Here is what he came up with. I think it is quite clever, and from my perspective, right on.
Bob wrote:You asked this morning why people weren't fired up about McCain and while I was
driving, I came up with this analogy. Lets say conservative voters are like
nutritionists, and McCain is a Big Mac. He's got a few vegetables, and some
protein, but all in all, not the most healthy thing for our diet. We see Barack
Obama as cotton candy. Fun to look at, sweet and smooth, but very little
substance. Once you partake, it evaporates in your mouth and you have a gritty
feeling.
We are not excited about eating the Big Mac. We could be more excited if he
picks a healthy side dish. Maybe some cajun rice with a bit of curry in Bobby
Jindal. Maybe some cornbread and beans in Mike Huckabee. But come November,
when faced with the choice of Big Mac vs Cotton Candy and whatever
All-day-sucker Obama picks as his running mate, we will flock to the Big Mac
booth.

Rick and Bubba were guests on the Sean Hannity show the other day (they were announcing their joint candidacy to be co-presidents of the USA :lol: :lol: ).

Rick's statements about the 3 remaining candidates for president sum up my thoughts: "These 3 just won't do."

McCain really needs to pick a strong, young conservative like Jindal to offset his age and "moderateness".

Very true "These three just wont do"

McCain will end up picking the gov form FLA. I don’t remember his name but he owes him too much to pass him by. Like it or not, iIf Obama can survive the negative painting, slamming and dirt throwing by the republican machine (which I think he will thanks to Bush), He will be our next president.

I had a big laugh last night. My brother boldly predicted that HRC will join the Republican Party and run as McCain's VP, and they'll be unstoppable. He was serious. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I think you're probably, unfortunately, right about that. If he does pick Crist, who is as "moderate" as McCain, then I may just have to go fishing come election day.

Not without the support and votes of white males, who, believe it or not, still decide the presidency, according to:

What a ticket McCain and Clinton. lol Who would wear the pants in that relationship?

His dirt is who he associates with. Wright, and the priest I can live with its Bill Aires?? I am concerned about. McCain’s dirt is his actions. He claims to be a conservative but votes and acts like a liberal.

DaJudge: Please go vote. I don’t care if you write in Huckabee, Paul, Danger, Dr. Ron, Creasy, Hamby or Donald Duck. Just vote!!!!! It is the one privilege or right that makes us different from the world. It’s not perfect but it’s the best thing out there. Voting is priceless and all those that do not should keep silent about America's problems.

White men are in the majority and do tend to lead in the voting. The fact that we will have a legitimate black man running for office, we will continue (as shown in the primaries) to have record numbers of people voting. These record numbers will be voting for Obama.

There are enough people so angry at Bush they will vote for anyone to stay away from 4 more years of Bush.

So like it or not our next president (Unless God does a miracle) will be Obama.

So I ask who would make a good president for the USA at this time? Nominate anyone other than 16 that ran.
