Quit whining about McCain being unbeatable...
I would think he would be one of the candidates the Dems do want.

For one, there is no other Rethuglican running closer to a Bush clone than McCain. So first off, the Dems need to start painting him as Bush Light, McBush or some other form of a Bush clone.

Next, we have that great armpit hugging ad. Talk about integrity. How can one man hug another who was behind the sliming of his family and children and spread he gave his wife VD and caused her to get hooked on prescription pills? Hell, the old FauxNews angle of, "if Dems are afraid to come on Faux, then they'll be afraid of al Queda." So one angle could be, "If McCain won't for his own family and wife, then how can we expect him to fight for us."

Now, to get down and dirty, there is always his health. The man looks tired and worn and if our fucking opponents are going to bring up HRC's emotions, then it's fair to bring up his health and emotional temper.

On top of all of these, we have all of his flip flops.


Old, tired and crotchety uncle McCain doesn't scare me at all. Huckabee does.

2. Neither should scare you
McCain with his 100 years in Iraq remark is sunk before he starts. Huckabee is terribly vulnerable--in Arkansas, when he left office, he had the total support of only 13 Republicans in the State House. This is because he raised taxes, messed with local control of schools, and was a general jerk.

6. McCain is extremely beatable.
1. The religious right won't turn out in big numbers for him.
2. He was a better candidate pre-Bush and Bush still beat him.
3. There are questions about his health
4. he can easily be portrayed as a Bush enabler.

My 2 cents.
