Reply #16: McCain's pushing for moderates and independents [View All]

Let's face it, the hardcore wingnuts will always hate him because he's not divisive enough. He's not part of the asshole crowd, who don't even see the irony of labeling people who disagree with them as 'traitors.' It's a lost cause.

For a relatively non-divisive candidate like McCain, his strength lies in attracting undecideds, moderates and independents. The freeper crowd isn't that big, though they are more vociferous. But the big prize this year are the people who are turned off by the AM talk radio version of the Republican party.

McCain claims he wants to run a clean campaign this year, but call me skeptical. He'll have others do his dirty work (i.e. 527 groups).
