Reply #88: Yeah, and you're really making friends here... [View All]

when you respond to a joke with "go back to your parents basement" and refer to pro-choice Democrats as being "pro-murder."

Anyway, I'll just reiterate my point: On the issues, Chuck Hagel is hardly a friend to Democrats. John McCain was praised by Democrats for years including many DUers, Hillary Clinton, hell even John Stewart. And now we find ourselves running against a man who we built up as a "maverick war hero" and realizing that he was wrong on just about every issue all along.

It's nice to see your opponents fighting amongst themselves but that doesn't mean you pick out the "maverick" from the other party and help him into a position of power. McCain is not planning on giving Hillary Clinton a cabinet level position just because she said he was more qualified to be president than Obama. In fact as we have seen with people like McCain and Lieberman, these "mavericks" often turn out to be the most opportunistic sort of flip floppers who will do anything to be near power.
