John McCain: Crist as VP? (This will make you ill.)
Edited on Mon Nov-06-06 09:47 PM by seafan
Go home, McCain, and take your pomposity, yet despicable weakness in *standing up* to George W. Bush, with you. We are sick of it.

We don't need two more lightweights like you and Mr. Crist occupying our White House.

Little Jebbie ain't gonna like this. Not one little bit.


From March on Politics blog:

November 6, 2006


In a brief speech in an airport hangar in Jacksonville, Ariz. Sen. John McCain spoke about Charlie Crist as if Crist might eventually be a candidate for running mate for a presidential bid.

In his speech, McCain said Crist not only is “the next governor of the state of Florida, this is the next generation of leadership of the United States of America.”

Asked later to elaborate, McCain said that if Crist wins the governor’s race in a year in which Republicans face difficult election prospects and becomes governor of one of the nation’s largest states, it will make him “a player on the national stage.”

Asked if he thought that meant Crist could be a running mate for a possible McCain run for president, McCain demurred – “I haven’t decided whether to run or not yet.”

McCain ducked commenting on the absence of Florida statewide candidates at President Bush’s Pensacola visit today. “I don’t know anything about it.”

i have it on good authority that the repug establishment already knows that crist is gay and have bought the film showing him with another man to keep it from the rank and file. they would therefore not be likely to put him up for veep.

just to be clear, i could care less if he is gay. to paraphrase 'it's the hypocrisy, stupid.'
