3. Not a surprise;
I guess it's OK for the president to dump all over you, as long as he's from the RIGHT party!

5. That sound you hear is that of
a backfire.

They turned McCain into this godlike figure of American populism. Now, the fact that this REPUBLICAN is campaigning for Bush is seen as a major coup.

That VP talk went on far too long. Now it's going to bite Kerry in the ass.

6. Not really. All they have to do is remind McCain of Bush's smears in 2000
You know, suggesting in South Carolina that he had fathered bastard children of inter-racial mix.

7. what a class act.
most people would keep their mouths shut about it if they spurned the alleged overtures, instead of using it as a way to seek bush's approval. like a pathetic puppy dog.

of course, that's assuming overtures were actually made and the gop isn't making the whole thing up from the start.

8. Did you expect different?
McCain was campaigning for Bush in the NH primary. Why shouldn't this be a surprise?

9. You Really Have To Wonder
what makes McCain tick.

He is no maverick.

11. McCain Bushs' VP
That's the deal probably, Bush needs someone to prop him up. But what kind of corksoaker is McCain to forget what Rove did to him and his family in 2000? How could he forget that? They got him some new knee pads!

12. actually, that probably makes sense if McCain wants to be president . . .
if he runs with the shrub and they win, he just has to wait a few months for the impeachment proceedings or the resignation under indictment, whichever comes first . . .
