A vote for McCain is a vote for a third George W. Bush term. NOTHING will change.

If you've loved how the country's been run (into the ground) over the last 7.5 years, John W. McCain is your man.

Now that he endorses McCain, I shall vote for him now. President Bushs endorsement really sends it home for me.

Would you want a Bush endorsment?

Bush, Sr. raised G.W.....ENOUGH REASON NOT TO VOTE FOR HIS ENDORSEMENT!!!

Sorry....Im ready to say "Uncle" now.

Same smear tactics as G.W. Dubya Bush, same economic policies, same war policy (or worse) as "president" Bush.

I agree with previous post: If you love the last 7.5 years of malfeasance, failure, national decline, then you'll love and vote for John McCain.

The twin pillars of this man's (McCain's) platform are: continued war and further bankruptcy. He is every bit as rigid as Bush and like Bush, he won't listen to any advice. Worse than Bush, McCain has a terrible, hair-trigger temper that makes him dangerous around the nuclear trigger.

The 'terrorists' won't need to come here and do anything. McCain will finish the destruction of America that George W. Bush started.

I believe an endorsement from the crooked Bush family is like a political death sentence. Add that to a possible Vice Presidential candidate, Rick Perry. Perry is Tom DeLay's lap dog. Just what the country needs to become extinct.

Seriously, you can stay the course with G.W. and his clones or vote for a future that does not have to include endless wars, bottomless deficits and no jobs.

This endorsement should surely put McCain in the White House.

Do not understimate the Bush family endorsing John McCain in this election.

Many Democrats and the media continue to underestimate President George W. Bush with his low approval rating, in helping McCain in this general election, and time will show their assumptions to be wrong.

President George W. Bush and his family will help to deliver Texas ELECTORAL VOTES without McCain having to spend time in TEXAS while getting a lot money from the oil industry.

George Bush is still the President of the US and is likely to hype the news during the campaign specially on strong Republican issues such as NATIONAL SECURITY and TERRORISM.

President Bush and the family along with Mr. McCain position in immigration may have an impact in Democrats losing a couple House members including the old Tom Delay seat in District 22nd with Barack Obama as the candidate.

Like in California Latino candidates in Texas are wise to support Hillary Clinton for President giving them more chances to win with better turn out in the general election.

John McCain didn't learn anything from the horrors of wars; by portraying
himself as a " hero-veteran " he wants to distinguish and distance himself from the other hundreds of thousands of Veterans, as if they were another c l a s s of Veterans; the true heros are those who are humble, they quietly go about their daily life, they don't look for r e w a r d s ....
McCain wants the American people to have pity on him, he wants to be rewarded for having fought a war, the
reward he requests: the WHITE HOUSE .
Don't give it to him, I would rather
any other Veteran .

A Bush endorsement in 2008 is the equivalent of a political kiss of death.

In 2008, all Bushes = Typhoid Mary.

And just watch how McCain will try to get Junior Bush to raise money for him -- from the shadows and sidelines, of course! Don't want to get too close!

The Dems are going to beat on the smug, volcanic-tempered, phony holier-than-thou McCain's bones over a whole host of issues, flip-flops and bad decisions -- including McCain's deep participation in the "Keating 5" savings and loan scandal....

Dan, you said in your comment on this site: (quote) "You just dont invade a country and say well were leaving now see you later. Could you imagine the mass killings that will occur if we pulled out.? Go McCain im behind you 100%!"(end quote).

Dan, it is people like you who have brought America to the brink of destruction. You swallow hook line and sinker the Republican party line. Apparently you Republicans love Iraq more than you love the USA. Those people there will kill one another for years to come, whether we, the USA, are there or not.

Here are some words of your hero, John McCain, over twenty some years ago, during Reagan's proposed use of US troops in Lebanon as a peace keeping force: McCain made a floor speech that reads as if it might have
been written yesterday: . Here are McCain's own words, diametrically opposed to his position today. Substitute the word “Iraq” for the word “Leba non” as you read the following quote from John McCain (the younger McCain) and see if his words still don’t fit now.

(quote)”

The fundamental question is: What is the United States'
interest in Lebanon? It is said we are there to keep the
peace. I ask, what peace? It is said we are there to aid
the government. I ask, what government? It is said we are
there to stabilize the region. I ask, how can the U.S.
presence stabilize the region?... The longer we stay in
Lebanon, the harder it will be for us to leave. We will
be trapped by the case we make for having our troops there
in the first place.

What can we expect if we withdraw from Lebanon? The same
as will happen if we stay. I acknowledge that the level
of fighting will increase if we leave. I regretfully
acknowledge that many innocent civilians will be hurt.
But I firmly believe this will happen in any event.”(end quote).

So much for McCain's arguents today.

Well said, JL. *Well said.*

Former President Bush, father of the worst President we've ever had, now tells us who to vote for.

George H.W. Bush endorsing John McCain would be like Ed Norton (the one on The Honeymooners, not the current actor) endorsing Ex Lax. Think about this: Bush 41 is offended that Bill Clinton suggested that he and Clinton would work together on a task force, then has the unmitigated gall to endorse John McCain, who has elevated political prostitution to a science? Feingold and Kennedy must surely be having themselves a three martini party over this one! My God, where have all the Reaganites gone? I think its time for a Conservative Party in America.

The conservative base of the Republican Party is having real issues with McCain right now (if his reception at CPAC a few weeks ago is any indicator)...

And everyone wonders why in the world Huckabee is still in the race (even the Conservatives have to have an out...)

Mark, is it me or the "other Dan" you're talking to. I'm not wearing blinders. I worked in the McCarthy and McGovern campaigns, and voted for Reagan in the 1980 election. Go figure. My Republican credentials are stellar. Which makes these moderate conservative wannabes even more personally revolting to me. If anyone is wearing blinders, it is the voters who are being led around by the nosering by the media and the machines of both major parties. And no, I am NOT a Ron Paul supporter. I think a Dream ticket (well, fantasy ticket maybe) would be a Paul/Kucinich ticket. What d'ya say?

I bet Bush 41 is sorry he did not endorse McCain back in 2000.

dan...

Fault for the issues involved with the WMD issue can be found on both sides of the political fence - Dubya for stonewalling the country into thinking there was a 'clear and present' danger lurking in the sand dunes of the Middle East, and on the Congressional side for granting the Executive Branch of government 'carte blanche' on the Iraq issue.

The quotes don't hold water with me...you need to come up with a better argument or supporting documentation...
